THEY LAUGHED AT HIM IN THE BOARDROOM… UNTIL HE SHUT DOWN THEIR ENTIRE BANK
## CHAPTER 1: “THIS IS WHY YOU’LL NEVER BE US”
“You’re wasting our time.”
The boardroom laughed.
I stood at the presentation desk.
My startup pitch untouched.
The CEO leaned back.
“Kid, this bank manages billions. You manage a PowerPoint.”
Laughter.
One investor whispered loud enough:
“He looks like he can’t even afford lunch.”
My hands tightened.
But I kept going.
“We can reduce fraud losses by 47%.”
More laughter.
“Did you hear that?”
“Forty-seven percent!”
The CEO tapped the table.
“Sit down.”
I didn’t.

That was the moment everything changed.
