I vaguely recall this happening as a joke in some form of media but all I’m getting are statistics about currency being contaminated with cocaine when searching for it online.
Not sure where it’s from but I’ve received a bill like that from someone I really cared about a long time ago when I had a bit of a serious drinking problem. I was also homeless at the time.
The $20 bill said, “Not for alcohol,” on it. And the look in their eyes pleaded, “please.”
When I was at the liquor store that evening and I went to pay I didn’t have enough unless I spent that $20. I picked something different and used that money for food that night.
I’d like to say that was the first step in me getting sober but it was a few years later when I finally quit drinking.
6 years sober now.
I really wish I could remember their face.
Such a good story! Glad you’re doing well.
So good to hear you’re doing better.
Searching online points to the movie Drillbit Taylor maybe being where this came from, but I have not seen it to confirm.
I think that might be it! I definitely saw that movie a few years ago.
Nice detective work
