Like I was working 80 to a hundred hour work weeks for five out of the seven years.

And, and I sort of messed up when I did that, but it's just when you have the opportunity and it's there, you take it.

Right.

So I was young.

I had energy.

I was just like, dude, I want to go ahead and like be able to live in the best neighborhood in the Bay area, which I did.

I want to be able to buy like my dream car at that time, which I did.

I was able to take care of my mother and everything.

But then eventually what ended up happening is around 2019, I was working for like a narcotics task force for three years, bro.

And I was doing undercover.

We were targeting just high profile narcos.

So these would be people that would bring shipments.

We're talking about kilos in the millions.

of like fentanyl at the time, which was huge, heroin, methamphetamine, and cocaine.

And then they would ship it.

And as soon as it crosses our border in Alameda County going into Oakland, then that's when we would take over.

Dude, we had access to small planes, tanks.

Like, it was legit.

Yeah, it was like a movie.

And I remember me being a young detective, dude.
