They are paid well and live the good life we'd all like to have for ourselves. But when it comes right down to it, they put their pants on one leg at a time, just the same as you and I.Ever wonder how they became so successful while the majority of us just remain in our boring day to day routine?

A few years ago when the Shah had issued an order for the disarming of some of the more powerful of the peasant heads-men, our friend Abdul had preferred to exile himself rather than give up his guns, and had taken himself and a few faithful followers off to live in the mountains, outlawed for life, and feared by all his neighbours.
