I have 2 counter examples. My wife's step father would come home from his sales job and drink glass after glass of whiskey and coke. Each was about 15 ounces of whiskey with 1 ounce of coke to give it color (trying to hide how much he drinks). He's a good provider and only a little emotionally abusive to his family. The other example is the woman my wife works with. She is a contract-medical coder that is faster and better than anyone else in the company. She also drinks a bottle of wine with the meal she doesn't eat every night. She is the best employee my wife has as long as she's not in the hospital for electrolyte imbalance.
