One Week on a Mega Yacht ... Thanks to my Advice book
How do you get invited on a week long trip down the Atlantic Intercoastal with a group of computer geeks? Well I did not do it, but Dave Edstrom of Sun Microsystems did. The key to entry? A copy of my book "Advice: written on the back of a business card".
Both Dave and Mike O'Dell are quoted in that book. Dave bought an extra copy and gave it to Mike (who owns the Yacht). Mike was putting together the trip down the Intercoastal in his Mega Yacht and invited his old buddy Dave to go along. All thanks to a timely reminder in the form of one of my favorite books.
Read Dave's account of the trip and see the pictures at:

So what can you make happen by giving away one of my books? :)
