I Went to an Ivy League School — Made $60K a Week Selling Weed — Then Got 5 Years in Federal Prison | Kai "Verse" Tyler

Kai "Verse" Tyler had every advantage — a great upbringing in New Jersey a successful mother who pushed him to do better an Ivy League education and a promising career in the music business. But despite all of that he was a hustler. What started as selling weed as a teenager scaled into the big leagues — flying pounds across the country working with major connects and generating $60,000 a week in profit at his prime. He made millions in the weed game while simultaneously building a strong reputation as a music executive. Then someone in his crew set him up and the feds caught up with everything — resulting in a 5 year federal sentence.
