  • Description
    Gurbaksh Chahal's family emigrated from India to San Jose, CA when he was six. He started the internet advertising company ClickAgents from his bedroom at the age of 16, and sold it two years later for $40 million, turning his sibling employees into millionaires and saving his family's dream house. Facing family pressures and discrimination due to his Sikh background, Gurbaksh moved away from home and worked at the ValueClick for two years, becoming the youngest executive of the multi-billion dollar NASDAQ-listed company. Chahal then went on to found his second company, BlueLithium, which he sold in 2007 to Yahoo! for $300 million. Encouraging people to effectively harness risk and discipline for their own gain, Chahal shares his daring personal vision and his extraordinary experiences to reveal that success is much closer than most aspiring entrepreneurs realize.

    A Must Read for all DotCom Startup's

    I read about the Author on wiki in December 2008 and since then I kept reading all updates about this 28 year old guy who made a fortune in the most competitive & dynamic DotCom Industry. I got his memoir "The Dream" in which he wrote about his early days of startup while he was totally unaware of what exactly he was doing. A High School Drop out, irritated by the teasing from his colleagues due to his Traditional Appearance set new benchmarks for the industry and gave ample scope of innovati...

    Good book to read

    I knew about the Author of this book few days back and today I got it. I have started reading the book and would suggest to read this book to younger generation and specially entrepreneurs who like to pursue their dreams. One thing is clear that we always need to follow our heart, see big dreams and passionate for all what we do. This is what great people like Steve Jobs, Richard Branson, Bill Gates etc says. Really good book to read and inspiring as well.

    This is a must read for every Punjabi, every Indian. How Indian are not just a source of inspiration to their home but now showing footprints at global Level.

    Nicely written, where reality of business world coincides with your morale.

    Keep going......

    A light read,easy to grasp. A perfect for any aspiring, growing teenager, who might see entrepreneurship as a career in future.
