Prison Lifer gives advice -changes inmate’s life for success- Kyle Chiaponne

Do you like real life redemption stories? Well, Kyle Chiaponne has lived to tell one. A fight happens in the parking lot, and then there is a car chase. Chiaponne steps out of the car, and fires shots in the air and a few more in the direction of the man he is fighting with. Kyle is charged with aggravated assault and attempted second degree murder. He is sentenced to 10 years in a high level security prison in Florida. How did this happen with the youngest of three kids with parents who are school teachers? Kyle was a middle class kid who was drawn to the gang street life. Why? It started in school when he was lacking confidence falling behind in school and being put in special classes. He began to act out and started hanging with the dangerous kids. He was in and out of trouble and being arrested as a teenager. He had no fear even though he was getting into more dangerous transactions with older kids. He was actually mentored with good principles for business that he would later use once he returned home from prison. Three years into his sentence, Kyle decided he was sick and tired of the life he had lived to that point while he was doing 90 days in solitary confinement. Kyle hit rock bottom. He had an old lifer, Arthur Hughes, that told him he was wasting his life. He taught him how to get prepared and mentored him. He dropped his victim mentality. The book "Rich Dad Poor Dad" became his foundation. He got licensed for waste water treatment while in prison. He fought through 3 interviews when he returned home to get hired by the waste management company by the state of Florida. He gained more confidence and got his car dealership license. He is now the owner of the car dealership, Redemption Auto. Kyle gives so many thoughtful nuggets of wisdom of how to take action and break free to who you want to be in your life.
