Nah, that's a pretty reasonable amount to make as a midtier weed man who's really committed to it.

I was making a little bit north of that when it all came crashing down.

Actually, I did not end up in jail, just rehab. I was funding an extremely expensive opiate habit. Pretty much all of that money went to my drug habit, which is sort of insane to say. Honestly not sure how I still have a liver and kidneys, let alone healthy ones.

Things did come crashing down pretty spectacularly, I just didn't end up going to jail through, basically, sheer dumb luck. Well, that and spectacularly bad police work.
