Book Description

8 Nov 2012

'Business is a jungle. But I love animals.' Francis Boulle.

Venture Capitalist and CEO Francis Boulle has set out to conquer the world. Armed with strategies not seen since Sun Tzu, philosophies to rival Aristotle, a business head that makes Alan Sugar look like an amateur and thoughts about life that even Confucius would have found enlightening, Francis is king of the new life-gurus.

In this must-have little book of Boulleisms, Francis shares his wry observations and indomitable views on business, love, sport, art, family, politics and even pets. He offers expert guidance to help you live your life the Boulle way, even if you've never set foot in Belgravia. Using clever typography, illustrations and amusing diagrams, this is the perfect gift for every budding entrepreneur.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent work Mr Boulle, love your jewels 10 Dec 2012
Format:Paperback
This book is 100% worth a read, had me in stitches throughout, i do think its funnier if you watch Made in Chelsea (as i do) and get a feel of what Francis is about, but regardless its a definite mood lifter! very tongue in cheek and light hearted fun :)ive purchased 6 copies as stocking fillers so lets hope my friends and family agree! (plus i think hes gorgeous and the little picture on the front makes my day :P)

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Stocking filler 8 Nov 2012
By JonnoB1
Format:Paperback
This book is short sharp analysis of every day life, and is perfect for cheering up your lousy days. Several laugh out loud moments, this ones going straight into my bathroom joke book collection, and my niece and nephew's who are huge fans of M in C stockings.

I bought this book as I am a MIC fan and love Francis. However, for the price I paid, the book was not that long.
