CHAPTER

Is It Mississippi Burning?

He worked as a section hand in the railways, but then he got into the life insurance. He lost that job after an argument over money at work and was fired. So that's when he took the next natural career step on his path and became a ferryboat company owner. His biographer said that he was not only a natural salesman, but a persistent one. Which I feel like you can get from his overall vibe so far.

Speaker 3
That's a few life sort of famous southern type lawyers. Yeah. Like, you know, like Tequila Mockingbird and- Yeah, sure.
Speaker 2
John Grisham novels and stuff like that. What about Michael McConaughey in- Is it Mississippi Burning? What was he in? Matthew McConaughey? Yes. And then- Who's brother Michael? And then Samuel L. Jackson's enemy says, Yes, they deserve to die and I
Speaker 1
hope they burn it out! Yeah.
Speaker 2
What movie is that? Yeah, it's
Speaker 1
a movie. Sounds like a good one. It was a great movie. Great

He became a salesman and John M. Pierce, his biographer said that he was not only a natural salesman, but a persistent one. Which I feel like you can get from his overall vibe so far. Yeah. He probably would be good at selling you stuff. Yeah, just
Speaker 3

Speaker 2
it! Why are there many jobs he's had though? It's totally different careers. Well, guess what?
Speaker 1
He lost that job after he got into an argument over money at work and was fired. Oh my god. But he got another insurance job, so he actually didn't zip too far away. A little bit of a pattern forming here. Yeah, a little bit. But he grew tired of working in the insurance agency. Sure.

company owner. That was a long pause.
