With the odds stacked against him, William, who grew up in the lower-middle-income area of Denver, would do anything to become a billionaire. He got an education courtesy of wonderful grandparents, married an angelic woman, and built thriving businesses. However, it took twenty years for everything William assembled to come crashing down. How did he go from grace to grass? It all began with the decline of his grandparents’ health. William and mostly his wife, Kay, were the sole caregivers and executors of the estate, as agreed upon by everyone. Things fell apart when greed set in for family members, and the Youngs fell prey to unaccountability. Will Kay and William spend the rest of their lives in jail? Will the couple ever get back up? Find out in The Unlikely Felon by W. C. Young.
The Unlikely Felon by W. C. Young represented the quest for wealth, its effect as one loses sight of themselves, the selflessness of caregiving, and more. By the end of this book, my respect for Will spiked because it took a lot of guts to admit failings, especially from a once successful man. William looked inward and acknowledged that he could have done better, even though his anger was justified. I recommend this book for entrepreneurs and even young adults just starting in business. Document everything regardless of the relationship you share. However, when you win, be careful about ego, grandiose ideas, and glory-seeking because that is when we ignore the tiny details that could sink us. Will is an excellent salesman with a talent for storytelling. His smooth word flow captivated me. Thank you for sharing your story, Will, and my love to Kay and all caregivers. Keep rising!
