GA> Hope your business venture does well to cover for the loss of friends,

WC> Who says I am going to lose friends?

True, if you dont have any, you should be fine |-)

WC> And why do you think that I can only sell to my friends?

Maybe he thinks you wont be able to resist trying to con them and
they will just hold their noses and have nothing more to do with you ?

WC> Hell, I don't even have to sell!

Thats right, part of the con is to sucker others into doing the hard work.

WC> Maybe the only thing I'll lose is you people's "friendship",
WC> but that to me, is not much of a loss anyway...

The feeling might be mutual |-)
