His parents divorced when he was in high school, and only then did Stone learn of his father's extramarital affairs with the wives of several family friends. Stone attended Yale a year before dropping out. He then taught English at the Free Pacific Institute in South Vietnam for six months after which he worked as a merchant marine, and traveled to Oregon and Mexico, before returning to Yale, where he dropped out a second time.
