Why Should White Guys Have All the Fun?: How Reginald Lewis Created a Billion-Dollar Business Empire
When this man died, I cried like a Baby! In my business class at my prominently White University. I wrote my thesis on Mr. Lewis! He's the reason why I started my firm!!!
I just listened to the free audiobook here. You can imagine what he would have accomplished if he was still alive today. His dealmaking prowess was fantastic and a masterclass in never allowing society to define you but to constantly push yourself. One thing I learnt here is that exactly how you define yourself is how society will accept you. Define yourself as a billionaire and society accepts you as that; define yourself as disadvantaged and society accepts you as that. You have the power.
I received a scholarship in his name. I will make him proud!
HE'S THE MARATHON! Black people are more than hip hop
Why is he not in our school's history books?? This was a great video
His book is the blueprint for success. REAL DEALMAKER!
My Mom graduated with Reginald Lewis in 1966 from Virginia State University. RIP. Great and brilliant man.
This need to be taught in our schools! 20k views ... But foolish videos hitting the millions... Wake up out there! They love watching us sleep like baby’s! Come on now! This is food for minds right here...they trying to starve us with Maury shows and vh1 dramas🤯
i believe he was murdered.
I read about this Man in Highschool He's my Idol I don't believe the Brain cancer. They say Johnny Cochran died from cancer I don't believe that.
I can't believe how this great man was not known to me in my school I'm from England in the UK and now i know about him I'm going to spread the word about his life story it's got to be known by everyone,
The 1% Black men that you dont see on CNN. These should be taught everywhere!!
Reggie was a true genius!!!!! Reading this man's book 'Why Should White Guys Have All The Fun', put plenty of paper in my pocket
I can watch this all day
I thoroughly enjoyed this! I have seen "Wolf on Wall Street" however, I want to see this story made into a movie as well!
If black people focused more on being like this man, they would be wealthier than they are today.
The book, "Why Should White Guys Have All The Fun", was something unlike anything I had ever read! it was 97 at a booksale at the USAG Schinnen Army Base, located in Schinnen, NETHERLANDS, that I came across it. That book literally changed my life!
Gone too soon. Your life story inspires me, a simple man from Honduras.
An ICON. I had the pleasure of meeting Reginald Lewis in the mid 80's. Truly a highlight in my life. He was a keynote speaker at our NABA conference and such a gracious man. On my short list of people that I most admire.
