Arnie was a successful investment manager and a pioneer in the private equity industry in South Africa. Since retiring from active business he has been a speechwriter, public speaking coach, executive coach and mentor. His path was far from smooth. After emigrating in 1989 he found himself out of work for three years, living off dwindling capital. Calling on all his inner strength and resilience he started again at age 50 and once again reached the top of the tree. Possibly the greatest challenges he faced were being diagnosed with advanced thyroid cancer in 2001, which has metastasised to his lungs, and prostate cancer in 2009. He has developed strategies for coping and living a full life, which are all detailed in the book. He still plays golf three times a week, so everything must be OK. As an awkward teenager he was quite obese with all the angst this can create. As a result he understands anxiety that shy people can have about sex, inclusion, envy, jealousy, power and ambivalence about what to do with their lives. He has been married for forty seven years, has two sons and six grandchildren. His eldest grandchild said, 'Grandpa, I think that you understand everything'. _______________________________________________________________________________ BLURB 'The title suggests that these memoirs are for his grandchildren, but they are valuable musings for any and every one. As you go through the pages, you'll find a lot of humour, as life is supposed to have its frivolity and fun. I can only hope folks will enjoy the pages, as I have, and we learn to appreciate a thing or two about life from an all-rounder who has experienced his fair share of thorns and roses.' - Michael Holding (West Indian Test Cricketer, Cricket Commentator, and pundit for Sky Sports and SuperSport)
