Something like this is a legitimate fear of mine for my future. I don't want to spend my entire life working towards an amazing reputation as a genius and inspirational figure to end up being known as "that guy who OD'd on heroin while loving some prostitute." There's like, nothing that could possibly make this situation any worse either. According to the article, he was a "family man, with a wife and children." So now he's got this widow wife who has to explain to everyone she knows that her husband was actually a huge starfish. He's also got an unspecified amount of children who have to cope with the fact that their mega-rich "family man" father was actually just loving with them and spent his time loving prostitutes and getting high instead of spending time with his family. It's apparently not even the only time he's done it, since the same article says police are looking into something very similar that happened in a different state. So in the course of a few minutes, between the time the prostitute depressed the plunger on the heroin to the time he actually died, this guy went from "sharp-minded," "selfless," "warm," "tremendous," "inspiring," and "incredible leader" to starfish, dumbass, and cold. Good job.
I really hope I don't go out like that.
