I have also seen people come from nothing, go to obscene wealth, then end up right back on Skid Row again.
With addicts, the formula is pretty simple. You relapse into using (including alcohol), you crash and burn. Often, in spectacular fashion.
When recovering, the organization I work with, has tools that give an unfair advantage in the Game of Life. Keep on the path, and things can go amazingly well. Stray off, though, and there’s hell to pay.
I’m not especially comfortable, saying much more, in public. It’s a very sensitive and controversial topic, and folks tend to get a bit … extreme … when discussing it.
You’re just right though countless people I’ve seen make it big and end up dead shortly after. Money not earned is money quickly lost. Part of the earning it is what builds your character enough to handle it imo
