he had throat surgery and he was a great singer and his voice never came back and that raspy heny sound you hear now is the surgery he had. he talks about it in his book and i raise that now because i can imagine your voice is your career. >> my voice is my career and after the first two weeks of my surgery, i couldn't talk. the doctors did nerve monitoring and said your voice will come back. but it's a blessing. so many people out there are dealing with so many things that are far worse than my condition. number two, i had the best health care available to me. and so i feel so blessed, so fortunate. and i'm good, man. i'm good. in part, i weave that into this book. it is not susie ormond but somewhere in between. tavis: i want people to purchase your book, but take a couple of them and draw the parallels from your cure to "the wealth cure," the parallel you made and make the linching for me. >> there was -- the link for me. >> when we see the occupy wall street movement and big banks and debt, we look at personal debt and all these things being pointed at government debt. one of the nu
