Barry White Jr. is a self-professed man-child, and he likes it that way. He’s also a content creator for a logistics firm. No one in his Welsh village really knows what that means—least of all Barry.
To add a little spice to his life, Barry places bets here and there. Then, one day, he wins big and is burdened with a mammoth sum of money. But the harder Barry tries to get rid of his winnings, the more he seems to accumulate. It’s like a real-life game of Go for Broke!
Then it dawns on him. Perhaps there’s a way of turning this windfall to his advantage—and letting him live the same kind of life he always has.
Will this turn out to be the making of him? Can Barry White Jr. finally become Barry White In-His-Own-Right?
