    Wow so much to,cover. Originally studied in a seminary, subsequently; army cadets, football apprenticeship, fast jet pilot, blew out and spent years hustling pool, cocktail barman, failed as a professional gambler, returned to army invalided out. Raced stock cars! Tried my hand at farming. Took up law back in the military, moved to civilian practice nearly took my bar exams but felt too much like a vampire. Recruited by the secret service, left to become a sports agent. Retrained as a doctor and wrote a self-help book. Got amse and offer i couldn’t refuse and went back to the secret service for one job. Went into publishing off the back of my book. Worked for the police, became a samurai for a while until the Meiji restoration thendrove atxi for a while and all kindsof stuff since. Too much to go through here.
