The title represents two themes: One of many stories from the author's youth, his meeting with Muhammed Ali, (The Greatest) and which also serves as a symbol of what one might become in life with a little effort. The book/story takes the reader from the author's life in a housing project to a top job on Wall Street.
It is the final story, making it #5 in my series How To Live Forever, suggesting that my Baby Boomer generation write down a piece of their's or their family's history to preserve it FOREVER! This book and the other four are meant to serve as examples for his readers based on the authors experiences for the series and also to offer some learning to children and grandchildren and great grandchildren and other young people.
Its timely in that you can write down three or four pages, or hundreds, and Amazon/Kindle will now let you publish for free!
African Proverb: When the elderly die, a library is lost, and volumes of wisdom and knowledge are gone. If you're a monarch or a president, it will be done for you. The rest of us? Nope, we've got to do it ourselves!
I hope this book, along with my other four, Jump In And Start Swimming, Relationships Open Doors, Whatever Happened to the Pecords?, and Heaven Sent will serve as examples for you. Don't worry about the length! I write stories for a hobby. Your story can be a few pages, or more if you decide. It's free to publish--and you might earn a little extra money in doing so.
