A kid born on Friday the 13th in Burlington who moved to Hamilton at ten, got bullied, stole from his parents, slept outside for two weeks with a garbage bag for a pillow, was told by a vice principal that he would never amount to anything, lost hockey to a bounced cheque, burned through jobs, and somehow built a company, sold it, built another one, married the woman he spotted on a sidewalk the night the Tiger-Cats won the Grey Cup, and is now about to publish a book about all of it.
