Lionhearted1, I am quite comfortable financially. I took early retirement from a very well-known company where I was a v-p shortly after my parents passed away and left me very well-off. I am on my 17th day of sobriety; you might not consider me the real deal as I never got a DUI, never went to detox, did the majority of my heavy drinking at home where I live with only my dog. BUT, if I had killed someone while driving drunk, or done who-knows-what while in a blackout, I doubt very much my money would get me through.
Try sobriety for a few days. I was thinking that if I cannot stay sober this time, I might go to a luxury spa - - one of the new ones that are alcohol free, only natural foods , etc. That would be my detox.
