    Wow, knowing that dude has kids at home changes the whole equation. I guess I just assumed the kinds of people that took those risks were the kinds of people that wouldn’t let themselves have attachments or dependents because of the risks. I guess that just shows I understand people that take those risks even less than I thought I did.

      It’s an addiction. It’s like assuming a crack addict will avoid attachment. He wouldn’t get the same high with a rope, so he decided that his family has to deal with him getting his fix instead.
