“Everything I ever learned about making it on my own between the ages of 12 and 73.”
My Life as an Incurable Entrepreneur: How I Did Everything to Stay Independent and Prosper. Every single enterprise is described in detail, what I brought to each idea, the successes and failures, punctuated with poetry, and hard won wisdom.
A real-life ordinary guy's determination to succeed despite 42 operations and transplants, and periodical failures. A guy like me, a life-long square peg, ought to leave a record. When young, I physically fought against anti-Semitic jerks, even in a Lab School French class. When older, more or less stitched together, I learned to fight the bad guys with words and inspiring fervor.
My impossible situations attracted the strangest of companions: cops, organized crime, journalists, a particular lawyer and other ordinary souls like me inspired by what I refused to put up with a monstrous bully.
This book is a compendium, a textbook for those with grit and gumption. A how-to-do-it if your father wasn't Henry Ford, John D. Rockefeller or Rupert Murdoch.
