About the Book

What would you be willing to do for the rest of your life...? It's a question most of us consider only hypothetically-opting instead to ""do what we have to do"" to earn a living. But in the critically acclaimed bestseller ""The Monk and the Riddle"", entrepreneurial sage Randy Komisar asks us to answer it for real.

Review :
"The Monk and the Riddle is a reminder that we do not need to sacrifice our lives to make a living. Komisar offers a long overdue antidote to today's cash-in-cash-out mentality." -- "Stewart Alsop, Fortune columnist and general partner at New Enterprise Associates " "[Komisar's] advice for people in any business to junk the 'Deferred Life Plan' and live for the moment is a message everyone can appreciate." -- "Publishers Weekly" "This is the first business book that made me laugh and cry." -- "Bruce Judson, author of Hyperwars"
