【解析】本文主要介绍彼得故事。彼得上学时被老师称为“麻烦制造者”。他们还说他没有未来也没有希望！彼得上完九年级后，继续在一所技术学院学习。他成了一群坏男孩的首领。毕业后他无事可干，所以他只是和朋友呆在一起。在他的父亲去世后，他离开了那些坏孩子，去帮助在路边卖东西的母亲。他很同情他的母亲，想做点什么来帮助她。他喜欢看漫画书，收集了很多年，所以他决定把它们卖掉。不久他就意识到他的书很受欢迎。所以他决定自己创业。他到处买别人的连环漫画书。他以定价的25%买，然后半价卖。这些天，他不必到处寻找漫画书，因为总是有人来他的商店卖旧的。现在他每月挣大约55000泰铢。彼得过去对于他的老师来说是一个“麻烦制造者”，但他是我的英雄。如果你被别人视为“坏学生”，我建议你不要理会他们说的话。凡事尽你所能。相信我，总有一天你会成功的。
