Exceptional Life is Full of Surprises! Ups and Downs by Thesis Your Life in 150 words writing prompt entry

Born to poor parents in Paterson, NJ and educated by the Jesuits, I obtained my MBA. Married the girl of my dreams at 21 years old, worked 7 days a week, had 2 amazing daughters, amassed some wealth, but had to travel 95% of my time internationally for 30 plus years. Gave back to the community in money, and later, time. Helped family with financial issues and got caught up becoming the one needing help. I trusted an attorney who led me into a mortgage debacle that cost me to lose my $775,000 home. No one was willing to help me. Years later, the state settled the RICO case (over 100 homeowners affected), we were awarded $5,000 for our $775,000 home. I suffered credit issues and the stigma of bankruptcy for years. My wife of 42 years and I recovered. We now have a small Townhouse and can smile again. Writing Prompt Write the entire story of your life in no more than 150 words.
