Larry Chiang scandalously reveals how stuff really works and breaks it down. He edits the Bloomberg BusinessWeek channel \u201cWhat They Don\u2019t Teach You at Business School\u201d. After Chiang\u2019s Harvard Law keynote, Harvard Business wrote: \u201cWhat They Don\u2019t Teach You at Stanford Business School<\/a>\u201c (its the same title as his NY Times bestseller). He is Entrepreneur in Residence at Stanford University.

ENGR 145 alums teach!<\/p>\n

It solves the problem of ENGR 145 not getting taught this quarter at Stanford.<\/p>\n

This is for our Unofficial ENGR 145 project
\n11pm-1am two days per week<\/p>\n

It’s open to engineers ONLY**
\nIt costs $35,500*
\n*if youre an active Stanford student, your cost is a negative 400.oo<\/p>\n

Direct your questions either to me or an e145 kid that I have mentored<\/p>\n

Q: why are you doing this?
\nAns: it solves a problem. ENGR 145 not getting taught fall quarter leaves a gap in the Stanford entrepreneur calendar<\/p>\n

Q: why are you spending $$ to do this?
\nAns: I’m rich, bored, talented and rich this is my hobby<\/p>\n

Q: Do you even work at Duck9?
\nAnswer: In college I played a varsity sport, sold ads for the Daily Illini, sold cars, started and became a cash millionaire founder, was an officer at my frat, cooked Fri lunch for my frat for 120 guys. And dated a Theta.<\/p>\n

No one *ever* asked me of I was still Deans list in engineering.<\/p>\n

Q: I’m foreign and I don’t trust you.
\nAnswer: isnt that a statement?<\/p>\n

Look. I’m from a country that doesn’t sneak attack a neighbor.<\/p>\n

Plus why attack Canada and Mexico??<\/p>\n

My parents are from a county that forgets that Nanking ever happened.<\/p>\n

You’re not “buying it” so just know that I strive to be more American. I strive to be more Chinese too (that’s easy too ying wei wo tsang da yang zi bu tsuao<\/p>\n

Q: can I fail?
\nAnswer: most entrepreneurs fail 80.0%
\nMy goal is to have you bat over .300 (fail only ~70%)<\/p>\n

Q: what do I pay?
\nAnswer: 400.oo or $35,500
\nYou get your $400 back after you show up for 60% of Unofficial ENGR 145 events<\/p>\n

Q: what can I pay you later after I’m filthy rich
\nAnswer: toss me a vacation comp. Deny I ever helped you is a form of payment. I will judge you in how you treat me, yes, but what I’m saying is that I don’t need your credit, your praise, your thankfulness or your money.<\/p>\n

A thank you card done in construction paper and crayon gives me 90% of the joy as a comp suite at the top of Four Seasons NYC Ty Warner suite<\/p>\n

Yeah it’s the most expensive hotel accommodation according to Conde Nast.<\/p>\n

Yes I crashed a party there during the UN Gen Ass September 21, 2011.<\/p>\n

Yes Ty Warner is from Oak Brook IL and sold about a billion dollars worth of stuffed animals as a sequel biz to Dakin (sequel biz is a patented larry chiang guacamole recipe)<\/p>\n

By patented, I mean you can copy-paste it for free<\/p>\n

Copy Paste is chapter 3 of “What They Will NEVER Teach You at Stanford Business School”<\/p>\n

I just want you to know that I learned this from my dead mentor, Mark McCormack. He wrote: What They Will NEVER Teach You at Harvard Business School<\/p>\n

Q: What is ENGR 145
\nAnswer: technology entrepreneurship<\/p>\n

Google ‘Unofficial ENGR 145’
\nIt’s #hiLarryAss<\/p>\n

Q: Are you really a supermodel?
\nAnswer: :-I
\nI pay 70% commission if you land me a modeling gig. I dont do runway. I do print. And remember I’m 6’5″, 222 so don’t make me where European clothes or a 40R. But know I can sell a sweater in an a print advertisement to a person on the Equator in summer.<\/p>\n

Q: Are you remedial?! It’s always summer on the equator.
\nAnswer: Dumb yourself down and Sandbag For Success. It’s chapter 13 of my NyTimes bestselling book: What They Don’t Teach You at Stanford Business School<\/p>\n

Q: I don’t go to Stanford University – when do you come to my school?
\nAnswer: I’m already doing MIT twice per year.<\/p>\n

Btw I have 5 cofounders
\nI launched this on Josefine Kvist’s wall<\/p>\n
