Reading Reflection

1) What was the biggest surprise for you in the reading? In other words, what did you read that stood out the most as different from your expectations? 
The Roll Up Frenzy story was surprising. I have not heard of those stories and deals before and did not know that had happened.

2) Identify at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you.
One part that was slightly confusing was the section on valuation and pricing techniques. I have studied how business are valued before, but the way the author explained it in this section was different and a little confusing.

3) If you were able to ask two questions to the author, what would you ask? Why?
Is there a way to know what valuation method to use based on what type of company is being valued?
- I would ask this so I know which method would be best at valuing my business.
What is the average difference in the valuation price from in house valuations and third party valuations?
- It would be an interesting thing to know, and to see by how much people over price their businesses.

4) Was there anything you think the author was wrong about? Where do you disagree with what she or he said? How?

I do not think the author was wrong about anything is this section. He explained everything pretty clearly. I just wish he went into more detail on the valuation methods and when specifically they are used.
