À propos de cet audio
Why Should White Guys Have All the Fun? is the inspiring story of Reginald Lewis: lawyer, Wall Street wizard, philanthropist - and the wealthiest Black man in American history.
When six-year-old Reginald Lewis overheard his grandparents discussing employment discrimination against African Americans, he asked, “Why should white guys have all the fun?" This self-assured child would grow up to become the CEO of Beatrice International and one of the most successful entrepreneurs ever. At the time of his death in 1993, his personal fortune was estimated in excess of $400 million and his vast commercial empire spanned four continents. Despite the notoriety surrounding Lewis's financial coups, little has been written about the life of this remarkable man. Based on Lewis's unfinished autobiography, as well as scores of interviews with family, friends, and colleagues, the book cuts through the myth and media hype to reveal the man behind the legend. What emerges is a vivid portrait of a proud, fiercely determined individual with a razor-sharp tongue - and an intellect to match.

Incredible Story of a TRUE Orginal !
This should be required listening for every Business Student and MBA Program or any Entrepreneur that is looking for Inspiration ! This story is NOT ONLY about Reginald F Lewis's persnoal account to his rise to the TOP! Getting in and working his way through Harvard Law School, becoming a Wall Street Corporate Lawyer, than CEO of an International Company ....but start out with nothing; No Money, No Connections, No Support....and No Role Model ....because No Black American Business Man, has ever achieved the level of success that you soon will !

Great book about a legend in business
This book is a must read for any young black business or law student starting their career. It's a great example of #blackexcellence.
Reginal Lewis should be talked about more as an example for the black business community.
