Les Gold has been in business since age twelve, when he started selling used golf clubs from his dad’s basement. Now he owns Detroit’s biggest pawnshop and is the star of a hit reality show. No business school in the world can teach you as much about buying, selling, negotiating, managing, customer relations, advertising, tracking trends, and predicting the economy’s ups and downs. In this entertaining, honest book, Gold takes you inside some of his wackiest deals and steals. From the monkey his dad once took into pawn to the deal Gold made for a stripper pole, he has no boundaries for what he considers to be part of his business—and neither should you.
