Or someone with gorilla mentality will get our deals.I remember reading somewhere about teaching a man to fish...

And a seller who will not tell you their number is either 1- not motivated or 2- afraid of saying something silly or 3- fishing... 

Old money that felt entitled and just wanted to maintain the status quo, and those i would willingly assist in throwing off the Golden Gate Bridge but that would likely lead to water pollution and sick fish. 

I do fish in murky waters.I've heard from not one but three (3) different people who were successfully prosecuted for their mis-directed threats and served time. 

@Michael Quarles , I see this too with old lady real estate agents...still having to work long hours chasing a 1-time sell...that will not happen to me...by the time I'm that age, I don't want to have to be hustling...would rather be fishing :-)

You find a better response rate or just doing it out of boredom..hahaI also hear that some people view a fish as good luck..maybe I'll split test that with the elephant and see what happens :)I like these ideas.

SegmentUse the right lure for each fish species.Throw the little ones, the sick, the injured and the radioactive ones back quickly.Track and measure.

Think of it as fishing.

The old saying goes - "teach a man how to fish and he will eat for life! 

Not that an investor needs to be an attorney, but understanding that laws are much like a fishing net, each line being tied to another forms a structure for ones conduct.
