Ironically, Max had never done a drug in his life, but after an online friend showed him how much money he could make selling, he simply couldn’t resist. So, Max taught himself how to cut, package, and deliver his product all from the confines of his childhood bedroom at his mom’s apartment. And little did he know… those skills would change his life forever. Through his genius strategy of staying hidden, his grueling work hours, and a massive police investigation, Max grew Shiny Flakes into an international, multimillion dollar operation, selling well over 2,200 pounds of drugs all by himself. But, as he grew Shiny Flakes to its peak, one single misstep in his operation led to the entire thing crumbling down to nothing.
