The PATRICK COLLISON Story

By William Macpherson

What if two broke teenagers, typing in a freezing attic, could move more money in a day than most banks handle in a year and still catch the school bus?

This is the raw, real life playbook of Patrick Collison, the quiet Irish coder who built Stripe, launched the lightning fast Tempo blockchain, and became the invisible plumber of global money without shouting about it.

Inside these pages you will see the exact ten line pitch that closed millions in eight minutes, the cheat sheet that solves any problem in forty eight hours, the reading list that turns new grads into rocket fuel, and the daily rhythm that keeps a trillion dollar CEO calm enough to run at dawn and sleep by eleven.

You will watch Patrick fail optical character recognition, win with a Lego robot, sell a company at nineteen, turn down nine figure offers, and still fill his parents' pothole with stones so the car could pass.

Every chapter hands you a map you can copy tonight: how to hire for steep learning curves, how to ship before perfection, how to read five hundred pages a week, how to move millions in under a second, how to keep family dinner sacred while the world changes under your fingers.

If you want to start a company, lead a team, or simply like big ideas served in plain talk, this book is your new best friend.

Buy it right now. Open it on your phone the second you check out. Use one line before the sun comes up and watch your tomorrow move faster than your today. The world is full of holes. Pick up the shovel. Click the button. Start filling.
