Eighty to 120 Life is what you make it.: Wakeup Call, No Lies, No Alibies

Description: "Let the things I've been through serve as a lesson you can learn from strictly on faith and the belief in knowing that I love and care for each of you. The only thing I truly wish to gain in return is living the remainder of my life with the confidence of knowing that you take heed to these words and avoid making the same mistakes as I." There are times when mistakes are made, but it is too late to right them before punishment is dealt. As a minor growing up in a Nebraskan ghetto, Billy Ray Billups became heavily influenced by adults who he admired for their "maturity." Charged with auto theft, shoplifting, assault, and other criminal acts, he was kicked out of the state of Nebraska. Fast forward to adulthood, and Billups found himself incarcerated for his crimes. It was during his thirteen years of incarceration when he began to realize that everything that had happened in his past was a result of making poor decisions. Options had been presented to him to make good choices, yet he had tried to live up to others' expectations rather than his own. He finally received his wake-up call to live a more positive life. Now, the time has come for him to share his story to encourage younger generations to better understand the value in their ability to make good and rational decisions. In his raw and beautiful narrative Eighty to 120: No Lies, No Alibis Wake-Up Call, Billups sheds light for a hopeful and better tomorrow by providing insight from his personal experiences to help readers understand how important it is to be mindful of the ripple effect conscious and careful decisions can have. "Pledge to yourself to be the best version of yourself, then be it." Growing up in the ghetto is not easy this book was written for the purpose of a wakeup call to all young and old.
