ABOUT THE AUTHOR


This is the compelling story of not just a man born in Mississippi. Although, his first gig was selling Metropolitan Life Insurance, he was more so educated in the streets of Chicago. His birth name is James Earl Jones learned from the “OUTFIT” and was driven by “GAME” to the entertainment capital of the world, Las Vegas, where every casino simply knew him as— JJ.

Subject to the omnipotent forces by the deck of cards, he relentlessly tests his luck. The hypnotic desire to hit it big would rip him apart from germane responsibilities as a father of two sets of family ties. He would leave behind a promising future as a successful real estate entrepreneur. JJ’s keen business development pros included three-restaurant (JJ Chicken, Fish & Shrimp), two-lounges (Glass House & Sandpiper), and independent cab-driver. This particular mobile-entity provides regular cash as well as modest tips. His brother-Prince rented the cab, which set them both up to hire a third driver, while the middle brother-Mane opt for military service career. It was from this business venture—driving a cab that would feed his hunger to sustain and make fast money. However, he wanted more, which he found in Las Vegas—cab driver of the year award, movie stars, plus even bigger tips.

JJ believes he can make right family neglect and boast one day—I AM SATISIFIED—I Beat The Odds Against The House!
