À propos de cet audio

From brass knuckle beatdowns on the schoolyard to showdowns with the SEC on the national news, every second of Deaton’s life has been a fight for survival. This book is the raw, wild John Deaton story, straight from the source. Born in one of the worst neighborhoods in Detroit--the kind of place the city cordoned off with warning signs--and growing up surrounded by hustlers, addicts, abusers, gang bangers, and the downtrodden, Deaton became a fighter, with violence becoming second nature.

Deep down, however, all he wanted was to escape. Deaton’s escape would take him to law school, where he starved and battled cancer while his peers lived off privilege. He became a marine, an attorney, a millionaire, and a father--but the unexamined trauma from his past haunted and nearly broke him. This memoir is Deaton’s confession, his exorcism, and his proclamation to fellow survivors: Don’t give up. Our birth is not our fate. We make our own fate.

Food Stamp Warrior is written with the depth of setting found in Hillbilly Elegy and the razor-sharp, unpretentious voice of Bourdain's Kitchen Confidential. In a time of uncertainty and economic instability, Deaton's story is one of perseverance, resilience, and empowerment.

John I had the pleasure of meeting you at the proper party, I only knew you as the lawyer who was representing us xrp holders I had no idea the struggle you had to go through to get to where you are today, my respect for you has grown exponentially. Makes my story sound like peanuts, hopefully we can talk about it some day.

With great respect!

John Deaton s approach to writing shows incredible authenticity; just a straight forward “plain” exposition of a life that is anything BUT plain. It’s riveting. It’s raw. It’s so relatable and yet, I can’t say I lived the same experiences. It’s human and sort of supernatural in the very best ways. It may be my favourite book ever.

This was so honest. So broad in its scope, and one of the most inspiring stories I have ever had the privilege to hear/read.
