Well, they would send me to kill that guy.
I remember there was a movie where Daniel Day-Lewis played Bill the Butcher.
in Gangs of New York, and he says something to the effect in that movie, I have stayed alive through the spectacle of violent acts, and that stayed with me.
So even here in prison, during my time in prison, once every couple of years, I try to just beat the ever-living shit out of somebody.
It's a shame, but it's really effective because, you know, it actually happened late last year.
And so every couple of years you have to do something like that, even in the criminal world, especially, and to maintain.
So like when somebody disrespects you or something, to kill them in a public way was the way I maintained order with the rest of the group.
The group, they had to, can't begin disrespecting their matΓ³n, their killer.
That high existence would come back to haunt me because if I had been smart, I would have just walked away with the $600,000.
And lived happily ever after because my living expenses back in those days before the $600,000 event were very low.
But I figured now I'm in the game and these big money deals are probably going to come along several times a year.
And so I just began to spend the money instead of saving it.
I just spent it like a drunken sailor.
My living expenses every month were about 30,000 US dollars.
And this was in 2007.
And I got nothing for that.
I just had three houses, one on the Pacific, one on the Caribbean.
One up in the mountains in Cerro Punta in like a really upscale mountain area.
Had like six automobiles.
