Someone once said this when explaining why I should be okay when he starts Christian-bashing. I told him just because he had every right to be a complete and total @$$hole doesn't mean he should.

LOL

YOU are the one who posted link and now you're not willing to defend it because the thread is gone?

I love keyboard courage.

How about answering why you think GC is an appropriate place to post such a ridiculous link in the first place? That thing was a bunch of bull hockey, and you should know better.

Of course you can't, fair enough. But I alluded to my question on the last page of THIS thread:

So, what were you hoping to accomplish? I'm genuinely curious because I don't see what you're motive could have been.

I hear ya. It's nice to have your money work for you rather than you working for it. I have 15 vending machines, so I know what you mean when you say you've got your work cut out for you. I have 5 in Lansing and 10 here, closer to where I live and work. It's easy for me when I've collected from and filled all 15 of them. The work comes when I have to fill them and collect from them. Ugh. But the money keeps coming in while I sleep.

Can someone enlighten me as to why, in this day and age, some people can't comprehend the simple concept of LEAVING A VOICEMAIL?????

My prices vary. For new contracts my prices depend on how well I did during the winter. The winter season is where I make most of my money, so if I have a good winter, I generally will lower my prices for new contracts during the summer. The contracts I have now, except for the ones I've added this summer, are the same customers I've had for years. We do good work, and so far I haven't lost any of my customers.

You don't have anybody working for you? That's a lot of work for one person.
