What was I supposed to do???

Say " Don't do this deal with me because I am going to be in a better place than you?????"

Say "Dude, watch out, I am ahead here by a couple of thou..."

Say "Sorry, I cant trade with you because I'm going to PROFIT from this deal"???????????


Sorry, but this is the basis of all business - otherwise we all just share the wealth.
