Buyout: The Insider's Guide to Buying Your Own Company Paperback – Illustrated, April 6, 2001

Great read!

The book was packed with practical guide in dealing with MBOs. As a banker, there are parallel situations to what takes place in traditional lending and the insight here are very helpful for those who are new to the business and experienced professionals alike.While the book was priced well considering I got the older version and some information are outdated, the shipping charges were extraordinarily expensive and I was a bit put off by the seller.

A great book that hits the Mark...Not only for beginners, helps make sense of the buyout world...Rick Rickertsen style makes a complex process easy to understand...I read his other book "Selling your Business" , that become the blue print how I sold my company...I am using this book as a blueprint for my next acquisition ...For me 5 stars is not enough!!!!Jon S. BrandtCEOMomentus Ventures inc

a very clear how-to guide that illustrates far beyond the buyout world and into any complex M&A from both the buyer and seller sides

Good for a introductory view of the subjects related to a MBO, but lacks (although warned by the author) more concepts as well as tools and models.

Excellent work. Well written.

For those getting their first taste of the private equity world, this is a great start with specific examples of real companies

The book arrived in excellent condition and in a very timely manner. I am very pleased with this transaction! Thank you.
