8. 1 )He ran to stay out of jail - not to do the work

2) He loves the power - not the work.
3) He loves the adoration and attention - not the work
4) He loves the access and ability to grift and con money from us to him - much easier than doing the work to earn it.
After he gets all of the above going for him - all he wants to do is let others carry out the actual work while he plays golf.

I also think he is medicated because he has been unusually mellow at times when he would normally be lashing out.
