As a person who skated the line for a few years, I was never a criminal myself but definitely hung out with a few folks with a pending RICO...that shyt is fun and exciting.

I dont know where i heard it, but someone once said that after a certain age,life is either boring or stressful. And when its boring is when its good
Can’t agree with the bolded….. But at the same time, whoever said this isn’t necessarily wrong either…. boring = stable and peaceful for a lot of people, and that’s a good thing

Fa sho. Boring is relative

If you've ever touched any kind of money shyt is seductive. I reemmber when I was in my early 20s I had it calculated all I needed was $25K/year. Soon as I started making more, I wanted more. If you're LUCKY, you reach your level of satisfaction before you reach your earning potential.
And these refs are surrounded by obscene levels of wealth. Think about how a racist white man feels seeing a bus unload 12 brothers wearing more than he makes annually and the only thing he can touch them with is a whistle

Unfortunately the consequences aren’t fun & excitingAs a person who skated the line for a few years, I was never a criminal myself but definitely hung out with a few folks with a pending RICO...that shyt is fun and exciting.
Which leads me to ask mental illness,lack of discipline or confidence in not getting caught. Which is more a contributing factor
If you get caught...

I think very deeply
Depends on your definition of "boring".
In this day and age, you gotta be a real dumbass to think you're gonna get away with living a criminal lifestyle earning millions, if you even get that far. You're not gonna outsmart law enforcement like the old days.
Plus in this day and age, you can do a lot of exciting things that won't put you in a cell of the grave.
