The main character is Ian Blackburn, he is a 15 year old male turning 16 in a few months. He is very lazy and puts everything on hold due to the fact that hes loaded and he has people to do everything for him except school. He put off his placement at a soup kitchen downtown until the last minute, now he is in a panic to pass his civics class so his dad will buy him a bmw when he gets his license since that was the agreement they had. At the start of the book he is walking through a rough part of town at night by himself, wearing all his wealthy close, he ran into trouble only to have a bum named Sarge protect him and get him to where he had to be. He is now starting to realize that there is so much more to life then what he is used to seeing. Now when he goes downtown he dresses in rough clothes to blend in so people don't notice him. His weakness is all his life he has been protected by money and had maids, servants, and butlers take care of him, and now that he is growing up its time to realize whats happening in the world.

Do you think it was a good idea for Ian to try and blend in, do you think he'll take it too far?

I think that Ian made a good decision because if he were to wear rich clothing he would be putting him self out there to be mugged. Also he has taken it into personal issues that the other people may have.
