Larry Chiang, Stanford University EIR, teaches engineering undergrads about Ga Ga Guaranteed Exits using Gua Gua Guacamole. He collects\u00a0 college credit card FICO score content at his CNN iReport channel \u201cWhat They Don\u2019t Teach You at Business School\u201d<\/a>. He regurgitates tactical morsels undergrads can use right away. After Chiang\u2019s Harvard Law keynote, Harvard Business wrote: \u201cWhat They Don\u2019t Teach You at Stanford Business School<\/a>\u201c (it’s the same title as his NY Times bestseller). EIR stands for Entrepreneur in Residence. It is what they call you when you teach with only a B.S. degree. If you read his hilariously awesome \u201cWhat a Supermodel Can Teach a Stanford MBA<\/a>\u201d and \u201cHow to Get Man-Charm<\/a>\u201d, you will like his latest post:<\/p>\n

Seriously. I read every line of every credit law. I hacked credit like an engineer that graduates Deans List and teaches at Stanford Engineering.<\/p>\n

Becoming rich was a deal I made with Jesus in the same way that Jeremy Lin opened himself to the possibility of succeeding in the face of impossible odds. Yeah, I reverse engineered Jeremy Lin’s success too. Google
