my friend is an alcoholic, he has a good job (sales), just wondering can alcoholic make somebody with a good income broke?

[amber ɹəqɯɐ]

And then some.

[Tommy H]

Totally.

[Joe Knows]

it depends on how much alcohol he has in one day and how much he earns.. but if he really drinks a lot then maybe he should stop.. since he has a good income, its pretty doubt full unless he stops his job and just drinks but that's pretty unlikely

[moondreamer]

Yes. My daughter had it all and alcoholism took her to the bottom causing her to lose everything including her child. She is now a recovering alcoholic and still is fighting for her life.

[pink_powerpuff_girl363]

yup, that's how it works

[kellylewis652000]

Simple, Yup.

If you can't figure that one out yourself then you probably are one already.

[Agent D]

I imagine that it is possible to go broke by being an alcoholic, but it also depends what he drinks. Spirits/Whiskey/Liquer/Liquor are much more expensive than beer in my opinion.

YUP! If someone is really addicted to anything (shopping, alcohol, drugs, food, sex...) they can exhaust all their resources, because the addiction usually becomes first before other things. Besides, alcohol is expensive, whether its by the bottle and especially by the glass at a club or restaurant.
