Yeah.
I actually wrote that book in prison back before 2003 in Danbury, Connecticut.
Actually, that's where I started it.
But I was just waiting my time because I had to learn because I'm so used to getting money so fast.
Like if you know what I mean?
So now in your head, you got to learn on that timing.

I published the book.
It's been a couple years.
Well, actually, I just republished it this month.
I just had it on the shelf waiting for the right time because in my mind, I'm not trying to sensationalize my criminal history because it's so, you know, it's a lot.
So...
You don't want to glorify your prison history.
So that's why they mind telling my story here, because people really don't know that side of the hustle game.
Like some of these people starting talking about checks, and I didn't never do welfare fraud, but, you know, the housing market, all that stuff like that, you know, everybody know a game or two to get in, but...
From my point of view, the shit that they're doing now, they wouldn't have lasted back in my time.
