A Practical Way To Get Rich . . . And Die Trying: A Cautionary Tale

A young tech entrepreneur''s memoir of building his hugely successful company and price he paid for it. At the age of twenty-six, John Roa founded AKTA, a Chicago-based tech-consulting and design firm that became one of the fastest-growing companies in America, which he sold in 2015 for a fortune to the largest tech company in San Francisco, Salesforce. His account of his rise from a self-described below-average student, to becoming a poster boy for the ambitious, successful young entrepreneur, to nearly destroying himself in the process is the foundation for a campaign of honesty and vulnerability in an industry that currently allows neither.
