That’s the reason he states but he was given multiple opportunities and chances to have his medical care covered for but opted for continually selling drugs instead.
Every goal he wanted (getting enough money to pay for college for his children, paying living expenses for a decade, etc) he met and still continued.
He even says so in the last episode, he did it because it made him feel alive.
- croon 2y agoHe absolutely becomes that person by the end, but it's unclear whether it would have happened were it not for mountainous medical expenses for treatment.

- Clamchop 2y agoI think it's about megalomania. Walter White is entertaining but deplorable.
- Tainnor 2y agoTrue, but government provided affordable healthcare is different from charity. Turning down your friends' donations out of pride is one thing, refusing your healthcare provider covering your expenses I would find hard to believe.
- croon 2y agoI'm not convinced that changes my point. Whether you look at it as an excuse to become that person or not, the excuse would not exist in an alternate version where healthcare was not ruinously expensive.
