He is weary of the constant silence during breakfast with his wife and saddened by the absence of children to bring comfort in his later years. Despite these disappointments, Jeff holds onto hope for a brighter future, yearning for happiness that may come tomorrow...
However, his aspirations are abruptly cut short when a sudden and fatal heart attack strikes him down. Yet, as the story unfolds, Jeff unexpectedly awakens in his eighteen-year-old body, with all the memories of the next twenty-five years still intact. Armed with this knowledge, he realizes he has been given a second chance at life – a chance to become wealthy and powerful in America.

Each time, he starts his life afresh, with the opportunity to regain lost loves, amass a fortune, or rectify past mistakes.
