Re: Is this money-making opportunity worth it?
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] Observation: All of the haters have zero hustle. [/ QUOTE ] Fair enough, but this strikes me as a compliment, and I doubt you meant it that way. [/ QUOTE ] Uhh, the word hustle doesn't neccessarily have pejorative undertones. Great businessmen, succesful lawyers, others at the tops of their fields all have hustle. They see good opportunities and they seize them. I understand that poker players are lazy in general. Otherwise they'd be out doing something productive. I'm a little bit lazy too, but I know a good deal when I see one and I know when its time to take advantage. [/ QUOTE ] Right, but when you say 'poker players are supposed to be the world's best hustlers,' you don't mean (or don't sound like you mean) point-guard hustle. You mean con-man hustle. The former is not my premier talent, but I admire it a great deal. The latter is beneath me.

They both do the same thing, one group just does it in a suit. Hustling as anacardo puts it: point gaurd hustle/hard work is nothing to be admired in itself in my book

[ QUOTE ] I definitely don't want to get into a price war with my rival in Glendale. Maybe I should email him, tell him I'm onto his game, and that for $250 I won't enter the market. Would that be illegal? [/ QUOTE ] This would be hilarious. Do it and write TR please! [/ QUOTE ] lol i agree pls do it

You just read that in yourself. Probablly has to do with your worldviews and background beliefs. I was saying that the 'haters' don't have hustle because they discourage/don't take advantage of very ethical $$$ making opportunities.

I still kind of want to do this.

[/ QUOTE ] I'm guessing its easier to sell cheap stuff @ first until my rep is built? I mean I would never buy anything from a brand new seller who hasn't legitimately sold anything yet. There's ppl out there who take the risk?

[/ QUOTE ] anacardo did, kind of by default, you said that biz/lawyers have hustle (the good kind), he said that there is a diff between good and bad hustle, and Im saying that most lawyers/business men have a lot of con-men hustle in them. maybe I misread though.

Re: Is this money-making opportunity worth it?
[ QUOTE ]
whats also hilarious is the fact that you are arguing against the fact that you dont want to waste time..... while posting on 2p2 in oot. [/ QUOTE ] ROFLMAO. Pure Gold. [/ QUOTE ] Nah. This assumes it's a sure thing, which everyone agrees it isn't. More to life than work and making money, and OP already indicated he makes a good living but doesn't have all that much free time.
