nustix (12/24/2015) [-] Re-watch the series. He first starts doing it after he turns down his old friends help to pay the bills. He pays them himself and after that he keeps on going to pay for his childeren. But at first it was so he could pay his own bills and didn't have to feel inadequate.

No, he only started talking about paying hospital bills and all of thay after he went to the second doctor - the extremely expensive specialist.
When Walt went on the ridealong, contacted Jesse, bought the RV, and started cooking - it was all under his 1st doctor's prognosis: death within a decade.
After his 2nd diagnosis, and extremely expensive first bill, it became about living. Then it became about getting as much money as possible. Then it became his identity.

No,he went on the ridealong to get an idea for starting the business. He used Jesse because he had history with him and was his only foot into that side of the business.
He crunched the numbers for exactly how much meth he would need to get both his kids into college and leave them a comfortable life after he was gone. He preached the number to Jesse multiple times, to the point that Jesse quoted it to him in the last season.
Now, he only joined up with Gus because he enjoyed it as part of his midlife/near-death crisis. But initially it was very much about leaving a good life for his family after the cancer took him.

mrwalkerfour (12/25/2015) [-] his reasons escalted as he went
first it was - so he could give the family a nestegg for when he dies. he at the time doesnt see anything worth living for, and doesnt want to die in chemo, all tired and bald and unable to communicate with his family at the end
then he decides to go through with treatment for his cancer, so he can see his daughter grow up and also to ensure he can keep his growing meth empire alive. this is where he starts becoming more and more addicted to his secret life.
then he starts doing it just for the pleasure of it, he becomes fully addicted to the power it gave him. the money became "points" in his game of meth.

captnnorway (12/24/2015) [-] I think my favorite quote in any series ever is "I did it for me. I liked it. I was good at it. I was alive".
It makes him feel like such a believable villain. All these faggots pretending to do it for a good reason, or because they wanna be edgy or whatever is no fun.

Dear ******* Idiot Who Made This...
1.) Walt *had* health insurance. He CHOOSE to not get treated.
2.) Later, when his family convinced him to do it, he went to one of the TOP 10 oncologists in the United States.
3.) He was offered the money to pay for his treatment. He refused it.
Paying his medical bills had NOTHING TO DO with why he started selling meth. He wanted to provide for his family, financially, after his death. He even calculated how much money he would need to make up for him dying early and continuing to pay for his family.
Walt started selling meth because he didn't have LIFE INSURANCE. Not health insurance. And there isn't a country in the world that pays out as much as Walt calculated he needed. Presumably, if he had a million dollar life insurance policy, he wouldn't have started selling meth.
But yeah, keep feeling smug. In the EU version, Walt would have ended up a five month waiting list for treatment before having Dr. Gupta from the bottom 1/4 of his graduating class see him for the first time.

lennybrown (12/25/2015) [-] EU healthcare or the NHS in my case isn't as bad as people make it out as. My gran only waited a few hours to get looked at and have it tested (she decided to wait for the lab results she could of went home and waited for a phone call) in which she found out she had cancer from there she got prescribed some experimental pills the same day and goes to weekly chemo therapy luckily shes clean from cancer now. It our dentists that the problem.

In Ireland (Dublin), it took my wife four months to go from her initial visit to having the results of her biopsy. And they wouldn't tell her over the phone so she had to spend two hours in a waiting room for some doctor to look at her sheet of paper, tell her she didn't have cancer, and have us leave.
I have no idea how much longer she would have had to wait for treatment though.

lennybrown (12/25/2015) [-] wow just wow sorry but thats just ridicules it can take a less then a month for some cancers to kill. I drove my gran to a university hospital (James cook university hospital) maybe that got something to do with it because it was fully kitted with everything its a huge place. Anyway she got tested she got injected with something and put in this machine as well as a blood and skin sample we had a wait an hour and a half for that and we waited 4 hours for the result then the doctor set us down and talked to us for 15min about treatment and give us our appointments there and then.

Spoilers ahead if you didn't watch the show.
His cancer was terminal from the very beginning, at the point they caught it, it was already spread to his lymph nodes. He was uninsured and he didn't really seek treatment until Skyler and the others pressured him into it.
His cancer went into remission briefly, but he knew he wasn't going to make it.
Originally he cooked meth to leave them money for supporting themselves and the kids' colleges. I think he calculated that he needed around 770 thousand dollars. He got greedy after that, he took Gus's offer, got paid pennies on the dollar for the meth he produced (I think for meth worth over 150 million he got paid around 3 or so). Gus started chimping out so they eliminated him, and then he went into cooking on his own, they heisted the methlamine from that train and basically at the point he owned a literal pallet of money that's the point where he retired.

ok honestly, if you grew up out west this is probably one of the best series you can possibly watch...if not you'll probably still really like it
you cant predict the plot- nope not happening...its got some pretty intense drama..its realistic...got comic relief in all the right spots...all good cahracters besides the cops wife and his sidekick jessie, imo...but the villains are truly vicious and it makes up for it

fazbear (12/24/2015) [-] Okay, okay
The hospital bills weren't the reason why he was making meth. He was doing it because he wanted to make enough money to leave his family well off after he died.
No matter how much Walt made, he'd never be able to be cured of his cancer because it was terminal.
I'm not saying the healthcare is great or nothing, because I know ******** about that, but I know that he wasn't trying to pay off hospital bills with the meth money.

Even a 14 year old can see the medical system in the US is completely ****** .
Taking the financial worries out of visiting the doctor is ******* amazing, it's like the best part about moving to Canada.
I'd probably be ******* dead right now if I stayed in California. I wouldn't have gone to the doctor, and even if I had, I wouldn't have agreed to a test that caught a serious problem. I couldn't afford any of that **** .

First of all... His position was exaggerated. Remember that this is drama we're talking about... We could make a ton of things sound ridiculous by referencing dramas...
Second, his rich friend offered to pay for everything and he denied them because he WANTED to cook meth instead.
Finally, he made billions. That was not to pay his bills, that was not to make his family comfortable. He could have stopped after a few hundred million to have his family be insanely wealthy for the rest of their lives, but he continued to cook meth solely for the thrill.
I'd like to really drive that last point home; he basically killed off Gus because he wasn't making a large enough percent, and he got really pissy with Mike even though he was making more than enough for his family to be comfortable anyway...

I don't remember the series too well, but I remember his problems starting with Gus because he wanted a larger portion of the pie. I do remember that Gus was going to kill him and that's when Walter finally whacked him, but it didn't start because Gus decided to kill him randomly.
Similarly I thought his problems with Mike started when he wouldn't pay up...

He knew pretty early on that Gale was going to replace him and that Jesse might very well get whacked too. As far as Mike goes, that was a problem from the beginning. Mike wanted to do right by the people Gus used to employ, Walt wanted his own business.

qnamanmanga ONLINE (12/25/2015) [-] I like how people think that cancer is just harmfull illness, so you can travel around the world, or do things which you were afraid before, like regular healthly people . While in reality ( i had gramma who died on cancer ) it's just years of incredible pain, and sad fight for life.
