Huljich experienced a mental breakdown and became a ward of the state in 1998. He sought help from medical experts in the United States and went to Minnesota where he continued his recovery at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester. After that treatment, he then admitted himself to the Menniger Clinic in Topeka, Kansas.[7] He has not received medical treatment for his bipolar and stress disorder since 2000.[8]

The Best Corporation was sold to a multinational food company Dannon in 1993, where it was valued at more than $100 million.[10][11][12] Paul is currently an American author, a member of the American Institute of Stress, as well as the Mwella Community[13] and does speaking tours throughout the United States; he is currently on a 20 'Stress- City' book tour, ending in a "Say 'No' to Stress" Seminar in Maui – Hawaii.[14]
