He fought through tremendous disappointments to succeed not only in business but also to become a world-class philanthropist. He is an MVP in the entrepreneurial arena." -- "Steve Young, NFL Hall of Fame quarterback" "This is a fascinating book and should be on the reading list of every young aspiring entrepreneur. Max vividly captures his early experiences as a cadet at the Air Force Academy and how they shaped and guided him for a very successful business career years later." -- "Harry Pearce, former vice chairman of General Motors"
