Sometimes what looks like a good deal on the outside ends up being an ever-loving bag of snakes.

 I had a potential customer order $20,000 worth of goods a few days ago. It had been a hard program to put it all together. My profit would have been $4000 for simply handling the paperwork. It seemed like a good deal...then a red light went off. Something wasn't right. I knew this was a situation that was going to become a problem. I stopped. I might have left $4000 on the table...but some deals are better walked away from than entering into and regretting it all later. I have had a few of those. I believe I did right by walking away. The best deals we make in life sometimes are those we don't do.
