Opp's Issues when you've done major mechanical work usually show up pretty quick , if you didn't hear or see anything within the first week 99% of the time you're golden. Gotta learn to trust your own hands

WTF was he doing with all the money he was making?

Unless, you don't think, possibly, he was exaggerating about some things...nah.

Well with a big house, a cabin, a hot wife, kids in college, one can't be expected to have any cash in the bank.

I think you have misinterpreted the purpose of the equipment I posted. It is an electric cattle prod and if it will move a 2000 pound heifer, it will speed up your wife while she does her chores.
