In chapter 6 we see that the responsibilities, financial and otherwise, are finally catching up to Eustace. He has continued his nation wide tour, which has inadvertently led to his girlfriend having an affair with another man, while he is gone. Along with his being gone, I think Eustace’s dominating and extreme personality have caused Valerie to do that. Also, in order to expand Turtle Island, Eustace was “forced” to buy land from some very shady people. He could have potentially put himself in a very delicate position of paying his father and simultaneously the shady businessmen whom he purchased more land from. Also, another problem Eustace could face is his new marriage. Along with all of his other positions, motivational speaker, camp counselor, etc., he is now a husband. I don’t know if Eustace can keep this going, due to his constant falling in love with many different women and his “my way or the highway” personality.
