How come criminals don't retire from the game?

[Tommy Knocks]

The same reason CEOs dont. These people have a drive and addiction to work, competition and power that proceeds the rest of the population. They don't call it 1% (which includes king pins) for nothing.

You can never have enough money or power apparently

When it boils to steam, it comes to it we all fiends, gotta do it, even righteous minds go through this (C)-Jay-Z

It's very difficult to just STOP.....You reach a point where so many people are dependent on you and often times it's tough to see the ending when you've been doing something so long....


That said I can't understand why BMF never stopped because they were in the game forever. They probably were a few years a way from completely giving it up tho.

Selling drugs is just as addictive as using heroin. U get used to the fast money and the whole industry and its hard to let go once u get started

 

[MikelArteta]

just like a drug addict or an alcoholic just can't stop. Usually it takes rehab, therapy and even then one hit or one drink can spiral them out of control.

 

[KinksandCoils]

I think for some it just becomes an addiction. It's like having a high. Think about the fact of getting away with something illegal like robbing a bank. You may not need money any more but some people believe you will always need more and more money. It must be a high to them to go in a bank and demand money and people whimper at the thought of potentially getting hurt.

Some criminals do retire though but in those cases your probably wouldn't know they were criminals unless you knew them personally and heard their stories.

I was once told no amount of money is enough money, and I belive it.

If you really never ran a crew or had a empire to uphold, you wouldn't understand.

Its not like a mugg got a predetermined monetary goal in mind.

2nd Once you got a lot..you want more..who's gonna be happy with a few mill, when there's 10's of mills to be made?

If you a contractor or single crew entity okay get loot and bounce, yet if you got a squad you have to feed and supply jobs to, its a lil more difficult to just "walk away".

What is a contractor or single crew entity in the game? Just give me some examples may be looking for some work soon.

Greed

 

[CrimsonTider]

I hope you don't think users are the only abusers getting high within the game.

 

[Tom Foolery]

What do you want them to do? give a 2 weeks notice and hand in a resignation letter. I don't think you can just walk away from the game and the people in it like that.
Also, The money and the power has to be very addictive.

I know high level drug dealers personally

My uncle use to move kilos

Sometimes it's not easy to just leave


Because when you high up you dealing with so many people

Alot of people also depend on you

After you make a certain level you deal with consignment

And the supplier not tryna hear that you wanna retire.

Some people genuinely enjoy that lifestyle since most likely it's the only thing their good at. The fame, power and respect is like a high for them

When you trapping there is no light at the end of the tunnel. You either gonna get locked up or killed
