Summary: There really is hope for the intellectually challanged
Comment: Richard Grant, the son of the more famous Grant, proves in his own words that a less than intelligent person can succeed, if they are lucky enough to be born into a wealthy family. Grant rambles on and on in this book about how he didn't really know what to do with his life. But it didn't matter, he had a rich daddy. He knew that he would succeed on his name alone, and he did.

There is not really much of anything worthwhile in this poorly written, sorry excuse for a work of literature. This book further proves the old saying: it's not what you know, it's who you know.

Summary: A CUTE LITTLE STORY, BUT THAT'S IT
Comment: As an employee of Reynolds & Reynolds, I was anxious to read this book. It was given to myself and all of the other employees and I enthusiastically opened the cover, hoping to be filled with inspiration and admiration. I got neither.

Freewheeling tells the story of Richard Grant Jr., a man who was born into a wealthy family, was uncertain about his future, but succeeded anyway because of his last name. What I thought would be an inspiring "rags to riches" success story turns out instead to be a biography of a guy with little direction who had a love for cars and boats. Richard's father, Grant Sr., appears to be the real inspiration in the family. It would be interesting to read a book about his life and his ascension to success and fame.

Grant readily admits that his last name helped him. Working for a nepotism- crazed company like I do, I know exactly what he means.
