Produktbeschreibung
At 36, Pat Treuer walked away from a high-paying corporate job-complete with titles, bonuses, and skyline views-to chase a dream with no roadmap: stand-up comedy. By 42, after launching a million-dollar pandemic-era comedy business and sinking every cent into a heartfelt YouTube series that made zero, he found himself staring at the ruins of reinvention... again. Will I Hate Myself is a brutally honest, painfully funny memoir about what happens after you risk it all. Told with sharp comedic timing and raw vulnerability, it's a story of chasing purpose, crashing hard, and learning how to rebuild not just a career-but an identity. This isn't a triumph story. It's a survival story. For anyone who's ever felt stuck in a "successful" life, wondered if they waited too long to begin again, or feared the cost of failure more than failure itself-this book is your mirror and your permission slip. With behind-the-scenes glimpses into the world of stand-up comedy, reflections on midlife reinvention, and the hard-won lessons of self-acceptance, Will I Hate Myself is both hilarious and healing. It's for the late bloomers, the risk-takers, the overthinkers, and the dreamers trying to rewrite the script-one messy, meaningful page at a time.
Autorenporträt
Pat Treuer is a Denver-based stand-up comedian, producer, and recovering corporate escapee who left a six-figure sales job at age 36 to pursue a life that made him feel more alive-and significantly more broke.During the pandemic, Pat launched a million-dollar comedy business, only to reinvest every penny into a heartfelt YouTube series that made exactly zero cents. At 42, he found himself rebuilding not just his career, but his identity-again. That winding, often ridiculous journey inspired his debut memoir, Will I Hate Myself.With sharp wit and gut-punch honesty, Pat explores themes of reinvention, failure, and self-acceptance through the lens of comedy and personal chaos. He's the founder of Of the Comics, a production company that champions inclusive, community-driven stand-up shows, and he's been featured in Westword for his efforts to bring laughter to those who need it most.When he's not on stage or behind a production board, Pat is probably overthinking, under-sleeping, or rewriting the script of what success is supposed to look like.Follow him on Instagram and YouTube @realfunnypat and @ofthecomics.
