A lot of things have happened lately. War and other things. The world has changed, strife and opportunity walking hand in hand. The perfect environment for the Streets to be thriving. 

Why Aren't They?

I have always earned my way in this world. My pockets are deep and I have benefactors across the country who appreciate my work. But even I needed someone to sponsor me to protect me from the dogs and LonelyWolves who want to bring me down. 

I asked for help. Help was given. The Leader of the Streets (at one time) was given the chance to lead again.

I'm a generous man. The Farehams have always been so. So am I.

$1,000,000 to the person who tells the best "second chance" story.

Please note this is not a writing contest. Nobody should die here. 

Feel free to tip me.  

ive been playin for a long time now. and yes second chances are important but one simply needs to search the name kuku in the registry to see that you are on....gods idk.....somewhere in the hundreds for chances given and you squander it every single time. so....for this simple mobster..second chance? thats a resounding no from me. 

That's hardly a story, BigDaddy182. I'm not sure we can count that as a submission.

A good entry, BigDaddy182, you're currently in pole position for the contest prize. 

There are 501 branches to my family tree.

Are there any trees taller or grander?

Perhaps but unlikely.

You mention the generosity of the Fareham lineage, I'm a living testament to that claim. In recent times I've become something of a modern day robin hood.

I can hear you thinking, "But Fareham, what do you mean?"

There are monsters roaming our streets, Rich Monsters. I beat one with a baseball bat and ended up finding the lump sum of 2.5 million dollars on them.

Being the paragon of virtue that I am I distributed the cash to the denizens of the home of BricktownCL, Detroit, as a token of good will.

As a sign of thanks I was invited into Armageddon's crew. It looks like I have finally found a place to call home.

If that is not a second chance, then I don't know what is

I would tip you, but I have once again become broke. The previous earnings from the fundraiser were invested into plumbing related expenses.

At the moment Liz_Truss is winning for the best redemption story. 

This cannot be allowed. 

LonelyWolf, I'd give you $1,000,000 but I am worried you would try and eat it.
