Now, if a North Carolina state trooper pulls you over and you give him that fake driver's license, he's going to run that driver's license and that driver's license is going to come back good.
because the only thing different on it is the birthday, and it's very unlikely that anybody's gonna catch the birthday, you know?
So, I mean, like you, I literally made fake driver's licenses that were real driver's licenses.
Based on your actual ID, I would just bump back, and for instance, I was born in 1979, I would just bump mine back until I was 21, and I'd be like 77.
And so, or 76, whatever it needed to be.
And so, these are actual, I made like really, really good replica copies, and would sell them for $200 a piece as well.
That sort of thing came natural to me.
I used to sell stolen heavy equipment, making a great deal of money back in those days.
I almost got caught once doing that as well.
Got some machines confiscated, and I had to do a really good play-acting job for the SBI, the State Bureau of Investigation, that I didn't know they were stolen, that I had bought them...
I was so afraid I was going to jail, you know, but I got out of it.
I weaseled my way out of it because I had all these legitimate businesses running and nobody would ever think that, you know.
Well, anyway, so I mean, like I say, being honest, I was always a bit of a bad guy, but just right there on the edge of it, you know, not just on the edge of making money, but not doing anything terribly, terribly wrong.
Then I went to college and knocked up this chick and ended up getting married.
I don't want to talk a whole lot about my family because I'll leave my family, you know, out of these things.
And so we ended up getting married.
And during that time, I was married to my first wife.
opened several businesses.
One, I had a landscaping business that was very successful actually.
It was a moneymaker.
