Born In Ambition,
Mississippi.
"I was fired from six jobs before I realized the lesson wasn't to get better at jobs."
Maxx Platinum Moggins grew up in Ambition, Mississippi — a town that, despite its name, had a 34% unemployment rate and one traffic light. His father sold motivational cassette tapes from a '91 Oldsmobile and disappeared to "pursue his potential in Atlanta." He is believed to be a regional manager at a Waffle House. Maxx calls this "a pivot, not a failure."
After being fired from six jobs — including a Denny's busboy position he lost by motivating strangers instead of clearing their plates — Maxx had his Moment of Maximum Clarity in the parking lot of a Piggly Wiggly at 2AM, eating an eight-hour gas station hot dog.
"The only difference between me and a billionaire is that the billionaire woke up earlier and had better snacks. That was the moment everything changed."
