Let me preface this by saying I do not exspect to be viewed as family on this or any board. My trips to all of them are infrequent at best.

2) Business family. I consider 2 people I have met over the past 7 or so years in this business to be my own personal business family. they know who they are and if they don't then one of them can shove those tasteless donuts right up his bunger heh heh. I have only two not because I am distant or distrusting of other people. Quite the opposite. But because those are the only 2 in all this time that has taken the time to get to know me, and that I have gotten to know. Either of these guys I could go months and months without having any contact with and one phone call and it was like no time has passed. They are also guys that anything I am doing, or any knowledge that I may obtain, I think if it would benefit them. And if so, I make it a point to make them aware of it. If they ask for a 'favor' and it is within my power to do it, I will do it and they owe me nothing. Friends or family don't owe, you do because you want to, not because you exspect anything in return.
Now to the non lovie dovie shit. These are also the guys I would most like to see profit other then myself, guys that I know I can tell my business secrets to and they will keep their mouths shut. Guys who will cut me in on a good deal if they, me and anyone else involved with it can profit. And these are guys i MOST want to do business with. They are also the ones who can tell me to shut my freaking pie hole if i am outta line and the ones I can call stupid mofos if they are messing up.

I would like to have a lot more people in this industry that I have relationships like this with, but the fact of the matter is, with everyones individual personalities taken into account, there is a very limited number of people that any of us can really have this kind of friendship with. As soon as ya start to number them higher and higher, the lower the value of each becomes.

so sayeth a spaz! heh heh
