Epic reminds me of that High school kid, who became the High School football star (in their small local town) who put all his eggs into being a professional football player, only to realize when he got to college, that he was just just middle of the road for college at best, where he would either quit school, or live in his own past success and end up like Al Bundy.

He does not accept that the total cost is for time, mater
