This is my life. My name and the names of folks and places have been evolved for obvious reasons, but the incidents and activities described all happened. This is actual life, not a phony Hollywood version that needs things be packed in a neat familiar framework without loose ends. My entire life is packed with loose ends, and most of them are still walking around. To comprehend my storyline, you have to comprehend the underlying rules that produced my personality and guided me through the dangerous underground lifetime that reeked of corruption, greed, and hazard. Being a Jew whose parents survived the Nazi concentration camps, I discovered life is delicate, and success arbitrary. Being a jockey, I developed an approach to life of living in as soon as, of pushing the envelope, of responding first, because not responding will set you back the race, or possibly your life. Jockeys are modern day serfs that travel the country picking up rides where possible, generally earning scraps, assured to be very seriously injured. Performed I bend the rules? Yes. Performed I break most of them? Most definitely, because that is the way the overall game is played. Horse race is a microcosm of contemporary society where the rich get richer, and ordinary people do what must be achieved to survive. Don't fall for that nonsense that everyone can be leader or leading minister, that anybody can be the next Steve Careers or Warren Buffet. For being blunt, that's horses--t. I did what I experienced to do to survive, and I make no apologies for this. I knew smart men, even my best friend was one, but I had been wise enough to know that's a lifeless end, especially for an outsider. And I understood I would always be an outsider, a Jew, a jockey, and a fixer. So this is my storyline, it's not a journey twisted in a nice neat bundle, it's life as it really is, uncooked, crude, and dangerous. This is my life. - Alias Ronny Kleinberg Written by Jerry Bader Technical Advisors: Donald Bader, Larry Goldberg
