Quote from: International on July 14, 2012, 01:27 amThe real question that you need to ask yourself is: Do I know enough about Silk Road to sell safely?Clearly you already started taking risks, without knowing what those risks actually are. This is a recipe for failure. ...It's absolutely essential to think about and even plan for the worst case scenario before it happens when conducting illegal business. In fact the only way to operate smartly is to constantly think about what could happen if you fuck up and always work hard so that you dont fuck up. The worst thing you can do is start selling drugs or doing other illegal shit in the hopes of just wingin it with no real plans or an intelligent course of action.Agree completely. Have a plan. Have many back-up plans! As many as a squirrel which hoards nuts, Plan B, C etc. e.g. having multiple hidden caches of cash in different currencies, having a good criminal defense lawyer on retainer, having a hollow shoe which contains a mini-mobile device programmed with the right numbers & lots of credit.There is another side to this though, one must also be wary of 'paralysis by analysis'. Sometimes we can overplan things to the extent that we lose any drive or motivation to accomplish them.
