Saved My Life
Before the financial collapse I was doing pretty well as a trader at a now-defunct investment bank. Cut to 2011 and I'm unemployed, divorced, living in government subsidized housing, my kids won't see me, I've got a horrendous rash in my left armpit, and I'm missing three toes due to frostbite from a winter spent living in the trunk of a Chevy Cobalt. Until I read this book, my diet consisted of cold Chef Boyardee ravioli that I opened with my bare hands. Now, I nuke it for 30 seconds and it's slightly warm. There's a constant pain in my side. Jesus, I don't have health insurance.
