The Sexual Philanthropist

Book excerpt: Imagine. You are 8 years old and overhearing your mother remonstrate to your father that you are the "Unwanted, bastard child." How does that feel inside your head right now? Picture this scenario and how it would have affected your life from that moment forward. What would the outcome have been for you - suicide attempts, drugs, alcohol, and what would have been your coping mechanism? What would have numbed your pain through the years ahead? Would you be mentally stable, or even be alive right now to tell your story? One of the things you'll love about The Sexual Philanthropist is that it has only a little to do with sex, that little word that draws you in immediately, because this is a bigger, in fact much bigger story of a journey through homelessness, crime, the underworld and more. In many ways, you'll find out for yourself as you read how similar we are, albeit your background may be in no way comparable to mine. You and I are the same. You know, the less you invest in yourself the less you are worth to yourself. This is a fact I learned along the way, and this book will do the same for you. Picture it as an investment. Now, remember when I said I was the "Unwanted, bastard child?" Well, that wasn't quite the whole story. I was also told that apart from being "worthless" I would never do anything with my life because I was and always would be a "failure." Well, here begins the story of how failure became a success. Enjoy the read.
