How Michael Bloomberg Works
David Senra reads Michael Bloomberg's autobiography: fired from Salomon Brothers with $10 million, starting a company at 39, acting from day one while others planned, knowing the business was information rather than hardware, and why selling is everybody's job. TL;DR Bloomberg was pushed out of the only full-time job he had, started with his own money, and refused to cash in; he says real builders cannot sit still, and that Bloomberg's product was always content, never the terminal hardware. Coverage comes from the first ~49,800 characters, covering most of the 49-minute episode. Sponsor reads appear mid-episode. Details come from machine-generated captions and the guest's own claims; business figures are not independently checked. Topics are untimed; metadata follows YouTube.
