You do remember your business partner Marcellus Wallace, don’t you?

Juan Gonzalez buys big boxes of chocolates that usually are $100 a box at usual Chocolate Shops but he buys his chocolates from discount chocolate shops at $50. He sells them at $75 on at Chocolate Events. He gets free Chocolates at the Discount Shop for being a valued Chocolate Buyer. He gives me the free chocolates to sell at $75 each box, and we split the profits, his profit goes to gift cards. :)


If this Juan Gonzalez dude were wiser, he'd sell the chocolates at $100, since that's what people are buying them for anyways, not only $75. He'd make a $50 profit on his investment on them not only $25.

Well, it turns out that Juan has been selling the expensive Chocolates like Godiva, See's, Ghirardelli himself for a while now. He lets me sell the inferior but still good tasting candies like Crunch, Hershey's, Reese's, Kit Kats, Snickers, M&Ms, Dove, etc. So, in a funny twist of events, Juan's inferior Chocolates are worth more to me than his expensive Chocolates. LMAO! :D

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Well, Juan Gonzalez saw some of my recent online posts and said something like,"You have turned into one crazy Chick. I think I'll be selling my own Fancy chocolates for the time being. I am going to keep my distance from you for the time being. "

But I am over my brief craziness and hopefully he will let me sell his fancy chocolates again. :)

It's not like you can't step up and do what he's doing, assuming what you're saying about the hustle is true. The barriers to entry for this gig is low to non-existent. You can buy the chocolates wholesale yourself.

You don't have the fund--is that the barrier? Do you have to buy them in bulk as wholesale?

I do have my own chocolates as well that I can sell. It's just that Juan's chocolates are far more valuable than mine are except for the inferior Brands. Besides the inferior Chocolates Juan also has. I have to ask Juan if he wants me to stop selling his inferior Chocolates as well or if he just wants me to stop selling the Expensive Chocolates.

From where he gets his premium/fancy chocolates as wholesale, can't you do the same?

Just as an FYI to anyone who doesn't follow Karen's posts:-
It's all a metaphor: There are no chocolates: It's Casino Free play / Player cards.
Karen was in cahoots with her previous Nemesis ( who you should easily guess ). She messed him about, big time.

Quite why she sees fit to post these parables escapes me. Maybe it's a subconscious urge to confess.

I've advised her a few times that to do so would not be in her best interests. Now, I think she might be better to just decode the whole sorry story and get it in the open.

Suggestion to Karen. If you've just pled the 5th. STFU.
Actually, shorten that. . .

Karen, just STFU.
