So I guess marketing really got to me
again. Seems like I get sold on buying
books very easily, but I’m not so good at getting people to buy stuff. Bought both books for 3 dollars or so.
FinTech packaging really oversold the book. On the cover it mentioned about all the 6 new
business models and made it sound like it would be an in-depth analysis of all
the 6 models. Instead, 6 FinTech models
were just listed for 1 page each with a pretty picture. That part was a huge let down…
They are:
1. P2P Lending
2. Virtual / Crypto Currency
3. 3rd Party Payment
4. Crowd Funding
5. Online Exchange
6. Personal Finance
What I learned basically is there are tremendous
innovations going on in Financial Technology.
Banks have to really up their game if they want to be around in the
future. Taiwan is really, really behind
in this space… Israel is really, really
good in this space.
The whole book could probably be shortened (not
even using the term ‘condense’) into 2 pages.
I pretty much summed up everything.
I guess I still have to finish reading the other
one on growth hacking… Now at least my
expectations are very, very low for it.
I could’ve used the $3 for two cheeseburgers.
