On October 7, 2006, Bangladeshi economist, Muhammad Yunus won the Nobel Peace Price for his work founding the practice of microcredit. Microcredit has been thoroughly covered in the media, including the "New York Times", "Washington Post", "International Herald Tribune", "BusinessWeek", "Financial Times", and many other major media outlets. "A Billion Bootstraps" challenges readers to vote with their wallets by contributing to charities that are as accountable to donors as companies are to investors. Smith is a high-profile businessman, and Thurman has been previously profiled on CNN and in Forbes.
