From the streets of Chicago to a maximum-security prison cell, Rashad Rowry’s powerful memoir is a raw, unfiltered journey of transformation. Accused of a crime carrying a life sentence, Rowry chose education over hopelessness—teaching himself finance, entrepreneurship, and investing while incarcerated. This "pre-manual" is both a gripping life story and a call to action for those ready to turn adversity into advantage. More than a memoir, it's a blueprint for making opportunity — no matter where you start.
