Life in the World of YOMO is a funny and true story about the trials and tribulations of a serial entrepreneur, later to become a highly degreed (but abnormal) professor. The book helps people understand how unimportant academics are, and focuses on career satisfaction by outlining a step-by-step process using a cartoon avatar called a YOMO. This odd but delightful format makes anyone at any age question if they should really go back to school, accept a mediocre job, or just sit in the bathtub in attempts to create the next best "pet rock". The answers might be frightening, but may be career altering for ones life...
