Because I went from a guy who law enforcement defined me, dude.
And then I basically had the option of, yo, you're about to get suspended for six months with no pay, which would have destroyed me.
Would have taken all my savings.
I would have lost my house, all that shit, bro.
Or God was looking out for me because I had a commander at the department and it was a 800 officer department.
And he's like, hey, Paul, I don't know you like that, but I heard good things you put in good work.
So I'm gonna do you a solid.
Let them know you have a problem.
And I'm back in my head.
I'm like, what are you talking about?
I have a problem.
And what he was trying to tell me, he's just like, you have an alcohol problem.
And I was like, do I?
Like now I'm contemplating, dude, I'm like sitting there, I'm like, do I have a problem?
Right?
And for most of us, we don't know that.
don't we don't know that right we don't know if we have a problem so at the end of the day dude i sat there um i talked to one of my best friends he came to see me and i was just like dude i gotta go i gotta go i gotta go to the rehab because otherwise i'll be destroyed at that time fortunately dude i had already established a side hustle with atms yeah because majority people that follow me online that's how they know me they're like oh dude this guy set up atms and he was a cop and so
So I already had a little bit of cashflow coming in, about 12 to 15,000 in residuals coming in a month from that.
So I was like, cool.
Even though I'm not gonna work overtime, I'm still gonna be able to cover my bills and everything else while I'm in rehab.
