Be careful what you ask for because you just might get it It seemed like Antonio Thompson was born to lose...at everything. Tone had bad luck ever since he could remember. and that had not changed over the years. He was what most people considered a true loser. Not just a person who had caught a few bad breaks in life, but a habitual loser. Even when things seemed to be going good for Tone things quickly turned bad for him. Early on in life Tone tried to live a life of crime but failed miserably. While doing time in prison Tone discovered his true passion.....gambling. Tone gambled on anything and usually lost. His losing ways continued after he was released from prison. Tone prayed to have good luck just once so he could know how it felt. His prayers were answered in the form of a winning lottery ticket worth $125,000. Never having this kind of money before Tone made the mistake of thinking that he was rich. He ran through the money in less than a month and quickly became the biggest joke in the hood. Tone sank into a deep depression. To live your whole life with no money is something that you can learn to deal with, but to have had some money and then have to go back to nothing is a tough pill to swallow. Mysteriously Tone is blessed with amazing luck after the lottery fiasco and he can't lose even if he tried. He obtains everything he's ever wanted in life. Tone soon finds out that what he thought was a blessing is really a curse and the curse comes with a heavy price. How far is Tone willing to go to have the material possessions of this world
