Download or read book Good with Money written by Kerry Gold and published by Figure 1 Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would you do if you were worth $350 million dollars? Would it change who you are—or would you use it to change the world? In the late nineties, John Lefebvre was approaching middle age and living out an unpromising legal career in Calgary. Then he jumped on board a dot-com start-up as a founder of Neteller, an online payment company. As Neteller’s fortunes rose along with those of the online gambling industry, the pay-off for Lefebvre and his partners would be astronomical. But it didn’t come without a price. Good With Money tells the story of what happens when a pot-smoking lawyer who only wanted to play music ends up as one of the lucky winners in the Internet boom. From Lefebvre’s early years as a teenage slacker in Calgary to his arrest by the FBI at his mansion in Malibu, to the many unusual ways Lefebvre has spent or given away almost all of his fortune, Good With Money is inspiring, cautionary, and always entertaining. Kerry Gold tells story with verve and an arched eyebrow, giving insight into the blessings and perils of sudden wealth while posing the big question: what does it really mean to be good with money?

Book excerpt: Living among the loving, Im lucky to have even one person in my life who loves me. Some can go their entire lives without being loved. The world is plagued by people who dont even know how to care for others, much less themselves. For the generations ahead, its up to them to remember compassion. It took me entirely too long to figure out precisely why its important to love yourself. With all the different perspectives out there growing up, the one I seemed to deny most was my own. Was my decision to disregard my personal needs and wants my own, or was it programmed into my behavior through some conduit of influence? When I asked myself this, I began to see the universe in a different way. The universe can communicate with us, and sometimes that communication comes though as forms of irony. This irony can deliver opportunities to better ourselves, and its up to us to exploit them.

Download or read book Unimaginable Zero Summer written by Leslie Stella and published by Crown. This book was released on 2005-04-26 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps you too have experienced the nausea brought on by the arrival of an invitation to a high school reunion. Bookstore clerk and culture junker Verity Presti will soon attend her fifteenth reunion with her boyfriend, the unfortunately but aptly named Charlie Brown, who lives with his parents while training to be an urban shaman—a modern-day medicine man somewhat capable of exorcising ghosts from apartments and cubicles, predicting baseball scores, and channeling lost pets. Verity, angst-ridden and burdened with fifteen years of magnificent failure, will be reunited with Craig and Carolyn, sickeningly perfect high school sweethearts, married now and perfectly sick of each other; Verity’s former crush Stan and his wife, Laurel, a frustrated author of angry haikus; and Will, a rage-aholic KJ (that’s “karaoke jockey”) whose only soft spot is the one he still has for Verity. A growing anxiety permeates the round of cocktail parties that precedes the reunion, causing old affections and animosities to boil over and threaten the dubious complacency of these seven lovable losers. With her trademark sarcasm and uncanny ability to skewer the oddities of contemporary hipster life, Stella has created a cast of endearingly eccentric characters who embody the insecurities and foibles that all of us—former prom desperados, band nerds, the burnout brigade, and loner stiffs—have and hope nobody else will notice.
