I'm looking for examples of extremely successful people that changed their lives for the better and went on to do great things...
JFK, Abe Lincoln, people like that.....
Maybe someone went to jail, or anything really....?
Sorry I know I'm not being very clear....I tried. Thanks

A boy, retarded, was reared with little or no education. As he reached adulthood, he was unable to work at even menial, minimum-wage jobs and was homeless for about 17 years. Somehow, he was given an IQ test and it turned out that he was a genius. Once he was given this information, he began to turn his life around. He started his own business and in his later years, became president of the MENSA society.
