About This Book
A Son of Privilege Learns to Live Like Everyone Else
In his fifties, Michael Gates Gill had it all: a mansion in the suburbs,
a wife and loving children, a six-figure salary, and an Ivy League
education. But in a few short years, he lost his job, got divorced, and
was diagnosed with a brain tumor. With no money or health insurance, he
was forced to get a job at Starbucks. Having gone from power lunches to
scrubbing toilets, from being served to serving, Michael was a true fish
out of water.
But fate brings an unexpected teacher into his life who opens his eyes
to what living well really looks like. The two seem to have nothing in
common: She is a young African American, the daughter of a drug addict;
he is used to being the boss but reports to her now. For the first time
in his life he experiences being a member of a minority trying hard to
survive in a challenging new job. He learns the value of hard work and
humility, as well as what it truly means to respect another person.
Behind the scenes at one of America’s most intriguing businesses, an
inspiring friendship is born, a family begins to heal, and, thanks to
his unlikely mentor, Michael Gill at last experiences a sense of
self-worth and happiness he has never known before.
