Summary
Casey Odland was brought up into a life of privilege - a privilege he threw away often. Criminal activity started at an early age with the first arrest at age 12 in 1970. In 1974 he was arrested 19 times and beat all the charges in court. He was a ward of the court from 1970 till 1975, when at age 17, he became an emancipated minor, getting his first taste of pure capitalism and ending up homeless for nine months. A robbery conviction landed him in prison in 1978. Upon release in 1980 he vowed to never return to criminal activity and was never arrested again. Within three years of being released he started a business from scratch in direct relation to a vocational trade he'd taken in prison, thanks to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. The business became very successful. Along the way he encountered every obstacle in usual fashion (head-on and without a clue), always learning on the back-end the proper way to tackle a problem. This book is written in the vernacular of prison language, street life, and the everyday person.
