Burn Rate by Michael Wolff

Burn Rate by Michael Wolff

From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Fire and Fury and Siege: Trump Under Fire--Michael Wolff's wickedly funny chronicle of his rags-to-riches-to-rags adventure as a fledgling Internet entrepreneur exposes an industry powered by hype, celebrity, and billions of investment dollars, and notably devoid of profit-making enterprises.

As he describes his efforts to control his company's burn rate--the amount of money the company consumes in excess of its income--Wolff offers a no-holds-barred portrait of unaccountable successes and major disasters, including the story behind Wired magazine and its fanatical founder, Louis Rossetto; the rise of America Online, perhaps the most dysfunctional successful company in history, and the humiliating inability of people such as Bill Gates to untangle the intricacies of the Web.

Wolff, Michael: - Michael Wolff is the author of Fire and Fury, the top-selling book about the Trump White House, and its sequel, Siege. His six other books include his biography of Rupert Murdoch, The Man Who Owns the News, and his memoir of the early internet years, Burn Rate. He has been a regular columnist for New York magazine, Vanity Fair, British GQ, the Hollywood Reporter, the Guardian, and USA Today, and, as well, written for a wide variety of other magazines and newspapers. He is the winner of two National Magazine Awards. He lives in New York with his wife and has four children.
