A young boy in a small southern town, born into a world of abject poverty, began the trip that so many thought was impossible. With an alcoholic father and textile worker mother, his chances of breaking away from the chains of poverty were bleak. He was also disadvantaged by a problem that would, in the years to come, almost destroy him.
At 19, he married the love of his life, but after mustering out of the Navy with little education and no marketable skills, he had to set his goals, and following his mom’s life lessons, he excelled in every area. He began to build a life for his family that he had only seen other people enjoy.
After working many jobs, he started a career that would eventually earn him his fortune. The journey through three careers took him into the dangers of heavy construction, supporting Trident nuclear submarines, and finally the challenges and roadblocks involved in starting a business.
A riveting story covering sixty years, Poor Man, Rich Man will capture your attention from the first word.
