Before Joseph Aquino brokered multimillion-dollar commercial real estate deals for luxury brands and iconic landlords, he was out on the streets in the gritty 1970s-first selling stacks of housewares on Manhattan's busy corners, then going door to door with watches across all five boroughs.

In this raw, no-holds-barred memoir, Aquino peels back the curtain on five decades of relentless hustle. From managing health clubs during the go-go '80s, to partnering with Faith Consolo-The Queen of Retail- and riding the rise of the luxury retail boom while closing landmark deals on Madison Avenue, Fifth Avenue, SoHo, and Beverly Hills, this is the story behind the deals.

He's reached the top. He's crashed to the bottom- going head-to-head with one of the industry's most powerful figures. And he came back swinging.

A must-read for every broker, landlord, retailer, and entrepreneur who knows what it means to fight for every inch.
