New Job

When Before You Quit Your Job was written and published, it was a guidebook for aspiring entrepreneurs. Today - with the job market in shambles, overseas outsourcing and high unemployment - it can be a path to the salvation so many are looking for: A way take control of their life and use their skills and talents to create their future. Before You Quit Your Job asks: Do you have a million-dollar idea? Are you afraid of failing? Are you tired of making other people rich? Are you sick of taking order from your boss? Are you tired of working hard and not getting ahead?

This is not that kind of book. A 20-something hustler, rainmaker, and boot-strapper, Scott Gerber here shows you how to overcome today’s chronic conditions of mass unemployment, underemployment, and dead-end 9-to-5s.
