Life Is Good but It Sucks by John Frank Book Summary

What if a former professional hockey player became a lawyer and married the most beautiful woman in the world? And then it all fell apart?

A Friday begins like many others, until John is fired by Frog, the managing partner of the mid tier law firm where John works. Over the next seven days, John confronts his career choices and marriage skeletons.

Life is Good but It Sucks is an exposé on the dark side of the legal profession and a personal account of failure and success in life after professional sports.

”Sir, can I ask you a question? Is the firm experiencing a restructuring?”

”The rush you experience when your shoulder sinks into the unsuspecting suit—lawyer, broker, analyst, actuary, underwriter, adjuster, salesman—head down...”
»Wenn Churer sägen, sagen sie saga, sagen sie sagen, dann sägen sie säga.«
“...I call them, collectively, the German Goo Girls, GGG, the Gs, or, sometimes, Die Physiker.”
