Sure, Landis was under financial pressure due to not having employment. But, by keeping quiet, I am sure he could have done something in cycling eventually, ridden for a 3rd string team, coached, sold bikes at a bike shop, run an elementary school cycling club, whatever.
However, if he 'came clean', first, he had no idea where exactly it would lead (except, likely, to his ruin on nearly all levels including the clusterf*ck of the floyd fairness fund). But one thing he
did know was that he would likely never work in cycling again.
Of course I'm not claiming he did it to "cleanse his soul", I have no first hand knowledge of the real 'why'. But he did it
in spite of immense pressure to keep quiet. That much is clear.
