SUMMARY:

Chris Gardner's journal, The Pursuit of Happyness, subtleties his quest for the American Dream and want
to ascend against the difficult conditions of his introduction to the world and accomplish achievement.
All along, life is hard for Gardner, an unfortunate dark kid experiencing childhood in the Milwaukee
ghetto with his mom, sisters and brutal, oppressive stepfather, Freddie. Gardner's mom, Bettye Jean,
had her own fantasies detracted from her, when her dad wouldn't pay for her schooling cost and she
drew an "unfortunate card" when it came to the men in her day to day existence. The initial two men
were enchanting; each, be that as it may, was hitched, and each passed on her with a youngster to raise.
The third, nonetheless, Freddie Triplett, who is tanked and vicious to the degree that he pursues Betty
and her youngsters with a fired weapon, causes the most harm. He is especially awful to Gardner,
provoking him about his bastard status.

They all develop to detest Freddie and, in the occasions, that Bettye Jean attempts to leave him, he
discovers a few methods for detailing her to the police, and the youngsters stay with their uncles and
aunties or with non-permanent parents until her delivery.

Gardner grows up with a profound feeling of dread toward vulnerability, however he is likewise fast,
inquisitive and trying. He is an eager peruser, that's what urged on by his mom's feeling "the most
perilous spot on the planet is a public library" and promises to be a preferable man over Freddie or his
leaving father.

As a teen experiencing childhood in the last part of the 1960s and mid-1970s, the starting points of the
Civil Rights Movement and the Sexual Revolution, Gardner acquires a feeling of himself as a youthful
person of color transitioning in an extraordinary verifiable period. He likewise has his most memorable
heartfelt and sexual encounters and becomes hopelessly enamored with Sherry Dyson, a lady from
Virginia.

They leave on an on-and-off, remote relationship, when Gardner enlists in the Navy. Rather than seeing
the world, as he expected, he is positioned at Camp Lejeune, in North Carolina, where he acquires
clinical preparation. Gardner is then welcome to San Francisco, to turn into the partner for a
spearheading heart specialist, Robert Ellis. Advancing however much he can at work, Gardner distributes
in renowned clinical diaries and engages any desires for turning into a specialist. While Gardner is
invigorated expertly, he feels a void in his own life, in this way, without really thinking, he continues
contact with Sherry Dyson. They before long wed.

Marriage is some unacceptable decision for Gardner, who tracks down the organization "excessively
organized, excessively precise, and excessively inflexible". He wants a more out of control life and
searches out the interruption of different ladies. The most critical of these is Jackie, with whom he
partakes in an unquenchable sexual relationship bringing about his child, Christopher. Gardner feels a
moment bond with his child, like he knew him "from a past lifetime".

Having left Sherry for Jackie, Gardner observes that beyond the room, they are ineffectively
coordinated. Jackie requests that he ought to get more cash-flow for themselves and urges Gardner to
leave clinical exploration by and large. He enters the universe of deals and keeping in mind that he
partakes in the serious part of the gig, views up portability as painfully slow.

At some point, in a medical clinic parking garage, he detects a red Ferrari 308 and asks the driver, Bob
Bridges, how he turned out to be so well off. At the point when Bridges answers that he is a stockbroker,
Gardner in a split second realizes that this is the most ideal calling for him. He goes for a few meetings
and is over and over dismissed for his absence of involvement, yet ultimately he gets an opportunity at
the business firm Dean Witter.

In the meantime, Gardner's relationship with Jackie has separated and he is left as Christopher's only
parental figure. Gardner and his child become destitute, remaining in modest lodgings and a haven show
to the Reverend Cecil Williams.

As Gardner brings in more cash, he can see as a steady home and escapes to Bear Stearns, a business
firm where he is urged to seek after his own venture advantages.

Both in San Francisco and, later, in New York, Gardner succeeds and trailblazers his own street in
stockbroking, at last focusing on rich and renowned African-American clients. In 1987, he begins his own
business firm, Gardner Rich and Company, in Chicago, where his vision is cognizant free enterprise and
charity.
