I thought it was clever. Writing in code is a pain in the ass sometimes, but technically I’m only delivering a handful a year so don’t have to do it often.
This one is close timewise, which is a bit of a risk, but the opportunity was too good to overlook.
Trinity is a full checklist of all the things I know my other customers want.
I received top dollar.
And those dollars are big—too big to ignore.
Do I do this for the money? Yes. But I’ve been a wealthy man for a long time. I’m set up for life and won’t ever starve or worry about having a roof over my head. Or how to pay for the latest Lexus or Range Rover.
So that’s not why I do it—not really.
There’s danger and excitement in this world, a thrill I don’t get from anything else in life.
I love my wife and kids, I’m proud of the dental business, but none of those things set off the thrilling spark that I’m enjoying right now.
It’s a dopamine hit laced with heroin.
That’s how I imagine it.
Staring into people’s mouths and talking to teenagers and mothers every day. Jesus. Yes, it’s made me money, but if I could legally shoot some of them, I would. They irritate the fuck out of me.
They are pathetic, average and boring people.
And that’s what started this. I realized I was bored with my life.
Not challenged.
Not stimulated.
Not living on the edge.
Every second I spend liaising with these people, identifying a new subject, setting up a pickup and waiting for the job to be complete is like sky diving...or some other adrenaline sport.
I get a hit from it.
As Oscar said to me once, I’m in the perfect position in my career to source the perfect product.
I lean back in my chair, glancing at the door to make sure it’s locked and the kids won’t barge in, then click open my secure file.
The video of the boy starts playing and I unzip and pull out my cock.
It never gets old.
The supplier might soon become the customer. If the boy’s still alive.
It’s a long shot.
