NOTES

"What Are the Odds? From Crack Addict to CEO, is a memoir written by Mike Lindell describing his entrepreneurial journey and how he overcame addiction to build one of America's most successful brands. Woven throughout the book are themes of a "what are the odds" outlook, as well as hope, and an unwavering spirit to never give up. Foreword by Dr. Ben Carson. About Mike Lindell: Mike Lindell is the inventor and CEO of MyPillow, Inc. The Minnesota based company has been in business for more than a decade and sold more than 46 million pillows. He is a philanthropist giving millions of dollars to help those in need, including starting the Lindell Recovery Network that helps people struggling with addiction. Lindell is also an evangelist who does speaking engagements nationwide." -- Amazon

"What Are the Odds? is a raw, authentic account by a man many thought would never rise above his serial, addiction-fueled failures. Mike's gripping narrative transports readers from his small-town tavern with its colorful cast of "Regulars" to Mexico and a drug deal gone awry. From Las Vegas casinos, where Mike won and lost fortunes as a professional gambler, to a jail-cell beatdown. From failed rehabs to his 20-year marriage, an ideal union decimated by addiction. And finally, to the redemption of the most shameful moment of his life. An unvarnished account of the ravages of cocaine, crack, and gambling addiction, What Are the Odds? tells the improbable tale of how a small-town guy with a dream somehow made it a reality. More importantly, Mike opens up about the God who relentlessly chased him down, turning him from a casual believer to a passionate evangelist with an absolute, mathematical certainty that God is real. What Are the Odds? will not only speak to entrepreneurs and those struggling with addiction, but also to anyone looking for a message of hope." -- Amazon.com
