On the subject of affording it, you don't have to spend that much to drink 10 drink-equivalents a day. Buying low-end beer like PBR / Bud Light / Rolling Rock can be around $0.40-$0.60 per can, at which point your 10 drinks of the day is costing you around what a Starbucks latte does.
Cheap hard liquor is even more cost-effective. You can get a big bottle of awful vodka for around $0.25 a "drink".
That is to say, you don't have to be able to hold down a particularly good job to afford this.
I assume that as you drink more your tolerance would increase? As an occasional light drinker, I'm pretty sure I'd be physically incapable of getting through that much alcohol in a day with enough time left to also attend a job.
