Well Robert ... when there is little money in your pocket you have a tendency to keep as long as possible.
Every penny I've spent on coffee stuff comes from the money I made buying & selling other coffee stuff. My Grandpa's cousin used to do that with stock - he'd buy cows & horses and swap them for other stock that he'd that he'd use for trade bait for other stuff he wanted/needed.
Problem was, he wasn't all that careful about bills of sale, and he did 7 years in Huntsville after WWI. I'm a
bit more careful than he was.
