The real mistake was denial. The bike was just a symptom of denial. Not selling it, denial. Hiding it, denial.
Denial of what? Denial that they really weren’t the self-made American dream that could have it all.
IMO, it’s the root of their relationship problem, their spending problem, their foreclosure problem and ultimately, the cause of his bike ‘accident’.
It’s a hard thing to own up to when you’ve been doing well and hit the skids to look in the mirror and admit. More people need to realize it, if they don’t own their company, and even for many that do, there really isn’t anything material that sets them apart from the 2 million other highly educated, successful, hungry people in Southern California.
