Has anyone seen the movie or read the book? It's quite an extraordinary story.
In the aftermath of the 2008 market crash, James “Jimmy” Adams gets laid off from his Wall Street hedge fund manager job. Feeling a sense of guilt for his role in the financial crisis, Adams decides to find a more honest and gratifying job than his previous profession. After several unsuccessful efforts applying to a variety of blue-collar jobs, Adams is hired as a graveyard shift server at Papa’s Chicken and Waffles, a local 24-hour diner chain (the restaurant was renamed in new versions of the book and in the film).Though many of his coworkers are ex-convicts, he begins to find unlikely friendships, especially with short-order cook Edward Collins. Collins becomes somewhat of a mentor for Adams, teaching him valuable life lessons about hard work and finance from a fresh perspective. Adams soon sets his sights on owning the Papa’s franchise and works relentlessly to meet the 1000-hour minimum required. Tensions build between Adams and his wife, Becky, as he downgrades their house and cars to finance his goal.
Overall, his time working at Papa’s offers Adams new insights both professionally and personally. After six months at Papa’s Chicken and Waffles, Adams returns to the finance industry, this time focusing on financial planning and wealth management. He is seen advising his former Papa’s colleagues with financial investment goals.
Enjoyed the movie a lot more than I thought I would. Plus his wife was pretty hot
