Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

Sample Book Insights:

#1 The day my father went to prison, I was made fun of relentlessly. People treated my family differently after my father went to prison. Some of the kids I used to hang out with at the neighborhood weren’t allowed to come over anymore because their parents didn’t want them associating with criminals.

#2 The story of Dad’s sentencing demonstrates the importance of never gambling when the game is rigged. When the government comes for their pound of flesh, they get it.

#3 My father, who was a rancher, took pride in doing hard work every day. He didn’t care about money or impressing people, and he got that from his father.

#4 The multimillionaire corporate raider and convicted felon, Paul A. Bilzerian, sued a St. Petersburg Little League official after the official told the St. Petersburg Times that Bilzerian reneged on a pledge to give the league $5,000 if the 5-, 6-, and 7-year-old players raised an equal amount in a fund-raising drive. The court sided with the league.
