Firefighter is a terrible career, better to change to being a nepotism baby asap. If you see an expensive car rolling down the street jump in front and hope they adopt you or pay for college.

They're more likely to back up and finish the job if you leap in front.

Stick to blackmail with at least one dead man switch they're aware of.
