Curro: The Art of Creating True Wealth

Here's the text with the publisher's wording preserved:

Dr Chris van der Merwe is the founding CEO of Curro and Stadio, creating enormous wealth while equipping thousands of South Africans with an excellent education.

Chris recounts his life story in lively, anecdotal style. The child of a single mom, Chris grew up in a working-class family who never owned a car. No one had any qualifications. It was thought he would become a mechanic, like his uncle. Yet the young Chris had a burning passion for learning. With bursary support, he trained as a teacher, but he had a daring idea - that turned him into a self-made millionaire. Today, he has a doctorate, a fleet of luxury cars, and a supportive family.

With his inspirational book, Chris shares his message that every child, no matter how poor or fatherless, can make it in the world. He provides both life and money advice. As Curro outlines the group's early challenges and daring solutions, it provides a blueprint on how to do business, and life, innovatively and successfully in South Africa.
