Selling pencils, candy, bootleg Cd's, hooking people up on discounts at their job. All of them are hustles in which the pattern could be applied to anything else. Somehow people disconnect the simple money making pattern of their youth from their grown up hustle. It's like they are going to seminar to learn all this stuff again when they already have the basic understanding. This is one of the bars that stop people because they think the new hustle is way different from anything they did in the past. Most successful people say I can sell anything and that's because they realize the same rules apply no matter what the product is. @Carl – Man everyone has some little hustle they were doing as a kid.

I used to buy packs of Now & Later’s from the corner store for $.10 and sell it to those suburban white kids for a $1. Since they didn’t have corner stores, they had no idea about penny candy. So these little fools would literally fight to pay me $1 for something I just bought for 1/10th of that. Like you said, it’s the same ole hustle; I’m just playing with much bigger packs of “Now & Laters” these days. Like that condo I sold in Orange County. Wow, that was a big ass pack of Now & Laters!
