I asked this guy where i work how he messed up and got in to this situation (he became a drug addict).
After i asked Bob if he wants to talk about it, he had no problems with it.
After he explained me that he had 3 restaurants in his hometown Eindhoven, he met new friends and buy saying friends i mean bad friends. They were going out to clubs and casino, but not that he lost his wealth over clubs and casino, he lost his wealth by using drugs (Cocaine, heroin, GHB). He explained me how that came, just wanted to have some fun he told me. Immediately it turned his life over by not showing up at meetings, not going to work, not paying rent because of lazyness.
He lost all his money for buying drugs, sometimes a kilo cocaine for a week, GHB everyday, every hour.
He met a friend 20 years ago that he used to hang out with and take drugs. (also sleeping in the same nightshelter). let's call this man Rich.

RIch and Bob met each other 20 years ago, Rich told me that Bob had the best restaurants in Eindhoven.
Rich told me that he saw the falling Bob, he never expected seeing Bob in the same place where he is now.

When he told me this i asked Bob 1 question in between::
me:Did you take drugs in the past days?
Bob: Yes i i did.
me: when? did i ask.
Bob: a week ago.
me: alone or with a friend?
Bob: Rich

i laughed a little but it wasn't that funny.

After telling me this i told him that he is hurting his loved ones using drugs, after that another person came in to the room and then he left.

Bob is doing okay now, he comes and goes.

What im trying to tell you guys with this story is to be very carefull and pick you're friends wisely.
You'll get easily influenced by friends, if 3 of you're friends is studying and working you'll get influenced by that.

If 3 of you're friends uses drugs, you'll try it too 1 day.

Since i started blogging on Steemit, couple of friends asked what Steemit was. After explaining they were interested and gonna give it a try.
