My point is that mercenaries are paid tremendously well for a good reason. The love of money is similar to gold fever though. People will do the craziest things. In addition, I wonder whether this Canadian already had a bullseye on his back for being recognized for being dubbed as the "World's deadliest sniper".

To me, this paints a huge target on his back. What does one expect with a title like this? In other words, from the start, this story is a big no-no.

Even if it was in retirement, I'd be using a pseudonym for publicizing any of these feats. Plus, give me a security detail. Otherwise, it would be wise to never say anything and make sure it is forever hidden.
