Zero to One sat on my reading last all through last year. I went back and
forth with reading it because I had heard so many mixed reviews on the book.
I wanted to get it knocked out this year, sooner than later.
Definitely ended up being sooner as the book was a mere 224 pages and the book
was legitimately 30% index.
Aside from it being obviously too short, the book was great. Got me thinking in
different ways about running businesses and how to approach markets.
To be expected, there was a ton of love for Elon Musk. Thiel speaks highly of
the rest of the PayPal Mafia but he definitely leaned into bromance territory
when it came to Musk. More than I had ever realized.
Since the pace of the book was so quick, I may end up picking it up again later
this year for a re-read just to make sure I got enough out of it. Wouldn’t shock
me if there is an expanded edition out in the next year or so.
