  1. Sounds to me like he was just being a [censored]. Your friend thinks he's an expert having held a watch once? What a loser. More likely he felt uncomfortable that you were wearing an expensive watch. His own insecurities meant that he had to tear you down on something, anything, to make himself feel better.

    Besides, gen Rolex bracelets DO feel cheap and nasty.

    But even so, there would be resistance. Dear God.

    What IS this problem people have with businessmen making a profit?

    I agree Victoria - some people seem to have a problem with other people charging whatever the going rate is for goods. Simple economics dictates the balance of demand vs supply and price sustainability in any given free market. As soon as buyers start drying up at any given price, the price will drop.

    If the price is too high for you, please shop elsewhere, don't [censored] about it to me :D

  3. Hi Dutchy - I've worked for myself pretty much all my life. I've been deaf since birth and "doing my own thing" has always been easier than working in some environment like an office where, meaningfully or not, prejudice occurs. The advent of email was an absolute godsend to me.

    The main piece of advice I would give is not to concern yourself with expanding too quickly. If you don't need a flash (expensive) office, work from home. The BMW can wait. Unless you really really need staff, don't employ them. Even a secretarial assistant will cost you
