However, Rich wasn't that smart and actually dropped out of school at the age of 16. But he still wanted wealth. The one thing Rich had going for him was that he was very attractive and he knew how to get any man or woman. At a black-tie affair, Rich meets Jeffrey Hammond who was a high-power attorney. Jeffrey offered Rich an offer he couldn't deny and therefore, Rich accepted and became "A Kept Man."
