In My TBR Stack:

Up On Game: From Robbing Banks to Stacking Bitcoin
by Richard Stanley
Melrose & Main Publishing
Trade Paperback

From the book publicity:

"Put the money on the counter"

The bank robber known on his wanted  posters as the Skinny Bandit, a street kid from the side of the river in South San Diego known as Otay — a rough Hispanic neighborhood — grew up running game from petty shoplifting to grand theft auto and brazenly robbing banks.

This is the inside story of Richard Stanley's neighborhood struggle with gangs and chronicles his life and crimes (and redemption). A whiter-than-cocaine kid, Stanley did the crimes and did the time.

Today, he's up on game as a legit entrepreneur and shares a vital message: people do change.
