I had an uncle who was a drug user. He spent years in prison, while in prison he learned to bake bread. When he was released he moved to Mexico, opened a bakery started making some serious cash. He bought a farm and a few horses, his "friends" kidnapped him, beat him senseless, broke his legs and threw him out in the middle of the desert. He was found next to a tree rotting away. His horses gone and ranch was set on fire.
