I knew that Dan Bilzerian was writing a book about his life, but I had forgotten about it.

When I logged in to Instagram one day, I saw Dan was throwing parties to launch his book.

So I went on Amazon to buy it and…didn’t find it.

That guy had decided to self-publish only through his website.

I got the book and read the 125 000 words in four days.

Here’s a summary of Dan Bilzerian’s biography, The Setup.

Yes, the name truly sucks.

The story, though, is one hell of a tale.

Summary of Dan Bilzerian’s Biography The Setup

The book starts in Florida in 1987.

Dan’s dad, Paul Bilzerian, was going to prison.

Paul was a corporate takeover specialist persuaded he was operating within the boundaries of the law.

When the judges decided otherwise, they sentenced him to 4 years.

Dan was 7, his brother was 5.

That left a huge mark on Dan.

He was already bullied in school and this event only made the mockeries worse.
