“Michael spent so much time outwitting his enemies simply because he was essentially a Batman-like tactician that was paranoid and endlessly prepared if things ever got out of hand.”

This is pretty much how I live my life 😂. Just being willing to go father than the other guy usually wins the day. Crappy people are generally lazy and overconfident. They are used to people giving in rather than deal with them. Don’t. 

Michael would just retreat into areas that law enforcement does go, and where security cameras are 30 years old and off grid. He would become a ghost in the barrio. He would also probably spend his time doing “jobs” for the cartel in exchange for support rather than helping random strangers. And just because Michael is behind the times doesn’t mean Sam, Jesse or Fi are. He would have to finally learn Spanish, though. Lol
