In this book review paper NE is synthesised as a means for self-employment solution on demand. Services of necessity entrepreneurs " survival and their type of mindset are reviewed, along with their best practices. Brazil success as a model NE country is covered as an example of what can any country do to move people out of poverty through NE schemes. Other NE schemes as: fall-back system, close mentorship and coaching are explored in this review to show their importance compared to financial support.
