He tells Jeremy to make education his top priority...be honest concerning everything he does...and he will be successful.

Jeremy promises his father he'll get an education, but he didn't promise to be honest concerning everything he does to be successful...Jeremy decides his bookish ambition must be put on hold during the years he pursues personal power, passion, and greed. He embarks on an adventure he and his best friend, Eddie, vow not to ever become involved with regardless of their situation.
