Plenty of people claim to have graduated from the school of "Hard Knocks." Steve Burnett not only graduated, but has the credentials to teach at this unaccredited "institution."He didn't attend college and didn't even graduate the 9th grade. This apparent disability didn't prevent him from building a company from scratch, write a book and create powerful connections that make him the envy of his business peers.
