I never did coke in my life so this is all from second hand experience . from all the drug users I encountered within my life, coke users seemed to be the biggest losers in life. None of them achieved anything meaningful in their life (career, relationship or skill wise), still they were constantly talking about "creating companies, inventing the next big sing or become world famous rap-stars".

From my outside perspective it seemed like this ego boost coke can give you is too strong for the character of most people. They seem to be stuck in a fantasy which hinders them to be productive in real life.

Yet in allot of movies you see rich and successful people doing coke as well. This made me wonder, are there coke users who are able to still be productive in real life. Does the ego-boost from coke (arguably) helps them to achieve some people more?
