Sacrificing the respect and recognition from many of his peers, and intimacy from a relationship, James saved plenty while working, while spending long nights working on his own business. Money that could’ve gone towards a woman or family, or a mortgage on a big house, or expensive clothing, went into James’ passion project. Later on James’ business succeeds and he ends up purchasing a gorgeous home in a famed neighbourhood, all his dream cars and clothing, and is able to attract a high quality woman who constantly supports James and improves herself, while also being an excellent mother to their children. James chose to twist.
