Working full time and coming home to work on your business 100 hours a week was so hard. You didn’t let your dream just be a dream. You did it!

I will take the shot but I'll wait for the time to be ready. I took a small step in getting my own apartment for the company, which is considerably cheaper down here than commercial realestate that starts at like 5k/mo. Only problem is now you need a brick and mortar for distributors so I'm kinda screwed on that end, but at least I can still buy and sell bulk and singles, graded cards etc.

the law of large numbers is the concept that the larger a sample size the closer to average results will be. the law of large numbers is only working in your favor if the actual calculated estimated value is profitable. if the estimated value is low the law of large numbers will only hurt you.

thanks for the insight, i 'll send that to a friend, who dreams to open a geek shop I'm already selling magic the gathering stuff, started casually, and now it grows, becoming kind of full time, earnings not sufficient but better than nothing (especially with unemployment, increase of everything, for just life expense, it's hard) i get that too, now a regular job would be really great, guaranteed pay, clock out and stress free in the free time, real days off and free time, not paying to work (as in buy/sell, we have to buy a lot first, no guarantee to sell, when, at what price, it's stressfull, with not much savings) But still, there are nice part too, doing what i love, learning a lot, earning a few for now but it grows quite significantly, free cards paid by sales, lots of stuff i couldn't discover otherwise

Your numbers don't add up on the cell phone cases.
