In 2001, he sold the company in an exit event but later reacquired the company via bankruptcy reorganization. He later sold the company again in 2007 to a Phoenix-based private equity company.By refusing to accept society's default template for mediocrity (THE SCRIPT: jobs, 401(k)s, frugality, give your life savings to Wall-Street) MJ was able to retire young in his thirties without sacrificing the good life. Yes, that means he isn’t playing Wall-Street's “hope, wait, and pray” game where you nervously invest all your savings into the stock market, all while commiserating over the Starbucks you couldn’t drink because saving $4.12 was more important. (Do people seriously believe that sh*t?)Currently, MJ owns a publishing company which produces, distributes, and licenses his work around the world while contributing daily to TheFastlaneForum.com: an entrepreneurial community featuring over 40,000 entrepreneurs. He lives in Scottsdale Arizona and enjoys road trips, softball, travel, fitness and nutrition, working out, and recklessly exploring the Sonoran desert on his UTV.

New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Broke and Shark on ABCs hit show Shark Tank explores how grit, persistence, and good old-fashioned hard work can help anyone achieve success.  As a young man, Daymond John founded a clothing brand on a $40 budget by hand-sewing hats between his shifts at Red Lobster.  Today, his brand FUBU has over $6 billion in sales.  Convenient though it might be to believe that you can shortcut your way to the top, says John, the truth is that if you want to get and stay ahead, inspiration will only get you so far.  You need to out-think, out-hustle, and out-perform everyone around you.  And if the thought of doing all that sounds exhausting--well then, says John, you better get grinding!

Rise and Grind

Since he began selling his hand-sewn t-shirts on the streets of Queens, Daymond John has been exercising the power of broke.  With little money and only $40 to work with, Daymond had to go outside the box to sell his items.  Fortunately, desperation creates creativity, and he came up with a concept for a creative campaign that would eventually turn the FUBU brand into a $6 billion global phenomenon.  But it might not have occurred if he hadnt started off penniless, with nothing but a hopeful heart and a burning desire to succeed by any means necessary. The inventor of FUBU and star of ABCs Shark Tank demonstrates how, rather than being a disadvantage, being broke can be your greatest competitive edge as an entrepreneur.  Why? Because establishing a business on a shoestring drives you to be more inventive.  It forces you to make better use of your resources.  It forces you to engage more authentically with your customers and advertise your ideas in new ways.  It requires you to be true to yourself, stay laser-focused on your objectives, and come up with the creative solutions needed to leave a lasting impression. When youre up against the wall, your money account is depleted, and your only resources are imagination and passion, success is your only alternative.  Youll learn how to use the Power of Broke to scrape, hustle, and dream your way to the top in this book.
