Addiction is a devil. It's even worse when you're rich and famous because there's no bottleneck to acquiring drugs.

Look at Anthony Bourdain. Dude probably had the coolest job in the world and still killed himself.

Proverbs 30:7 "Two things I ask of you, O LORD; do not refuse me before I die:
8 Keep falsehood and lies far from me; give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread.
9 Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, `Who is the LORD?' Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of my God.

Personally, I think I could handle riches without disowning the Lord.

From "If I were a Rich Man"
"Oh, Lord, you made many, many poor people
I realize, of course, it's no shame to be poor
But it's no great honor either!
So, what would have been so terrible if I had a small fortune?"

TV and the movies show drugs and alcohol use being the cool thing to do. You can see photos galore of people passed out in the street or at home on the couch showing otherwise or looking like death warmed over.
