When Gainesville resident Steve Siebold was invited to go to the Oscars with an Academy Award-winning director, he just thought it was a unique opportunity to see some of the Hollywood elite up close. But shortly before the event, Siebold found out his own life story would become the subject of a $20 million Hollywood film. Siebold, author of the book "How Rich People Think" and professional motivational speaker, was contacted by director Kieth Merrill after he made an appearance on a television show in Los Angeles, Calif., where he was talking about one of his books.
