My dad died earlier this year, after getting 6 months to live 4 years ago. In his own words he was too hateful to die, so the devil wanted to kill everyone he loved first (and did, minus myself and his sister).
Died in his mid 50s, never married, spending every day not working partying and spending his infinite oil field money on cocaine and bar sluts, and generally living as a "hustla" (in his words). And lots of hoodrat violence, because he lived in a town that is 40+% black and he was one of the blackest white guys alive.
Truly he was an inspiration for one style of life. I don't know why I'm sharing all this, but its a little weight off to do so.
Thanks for sharing. Good news is it already seems you are not destined to fall in his footsteps. What was his dad (your grandfather) like?
Barely know him. He spends most of his time in the Phillipines on the oil fields he owns. No bad blood or a falling out, just he was always living too far away to really meet. Nice enough guy from what I knew, offered me a job working under him out there but I'm not big on nepotism even if it would have made me as rich as him and my cousin are.
