[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 675362, member: 11791"] The WIIFM has to be important enough [I]to him[/I]. Not what we think should be important. But if his cooking career is a HUGE deal to him and he would do ANYTHING to get back on that track... then you have leverage. If he doesn't care about anything else except drugs, then... until he wants out, its really hard to help. (WIIFM = what's in it for me - often used in politics to get one group to agree to something that helps another group, as long as there is something big enough in it for the first group) [/QUOTE]
