More Than Just Luck is the raw, uncensored, and unapologetic memoir of Greg Wier, an uneducated man who transformed a life of extreme poverty into a massive fortune. Born to an abusive, alcoholic father, Wier found himself married with a child at eighteen, living in a trailer park, and struggling to survive. After a harsh wake-up call involving stolen baby food and shut-off utilities, Wier realized that no one was coming to save him but himself. Determined to build a better future for his family, Wier took an entry-level job making four dollars an hour as a security guard for Burns International Security Services. Through relentless ambition, grueling eighty-to-ninety-hour work weeks, and a refusal to make excuses, he rapidly climbed the corporate ladder. But success in the cutthroat security industry required more than just hard work; it meant navigating a ruthless world of dirty deals, mobsters, and wining and dining clients at strip clubs. Wier holds nothing back as he exposes the dark underbelly of the corporate and entertainment worlds. From surviving literal assassination attempts by his own business partners to rubbing elbows with the Hollywood elite in the music industry, Wier’s journey is a "bare-knuckled fistfight of a life" . He details the creation and sale of his multi-million-dollar companies, including Progressive Security Concepts and Prudential Security, while constantly fighting off relentless lawsuits, government audits, and corrupt competitors. Filled with wild anecdotes, hard-earned business wisdom, and an unfiltered look at the true cost of success, More Than Just Luck proves that grit and taking responsibility for your own life can overcome any obstacle. This is not your standard, boring business book; it is a gripping, fast-paced story of survival, ambition, and the ruthless reality of making it to the top .
