15.1 - Win or Lose
In August of 1997, Microsoft saved Apple from bankruptcy when Bill Gates announced, days before Apple would have filed for bankruptcy, that Microsoft would supply a $150 million investment. Steve Jobs responded to the generous offer by saying: “We have to let go of the notion that for Apple to win, Microsoft has to lose.”

Read one book 1 and one book 2.

Book 1: Read a book with WIN found intact in the book's title/subtitle.
Ex: The Third Twin; Dandelion Wine; Ill Wind

AND

Book 2: Read a book with LOSE found intact in the book's title/subtitle.
Ex: Close Range: Wyoming Stories; The Cat Who Went into the Closet; Billion Dollar Loser: The Epic Rise and Spectacular Fall of Adam Neumann and WeWork

Andy Plonka (plonkaac) | 4207 comments I assume any book that has the word win or lose in the title or subtitle also works?
