I here you. 13 years ago I was 25 trying to get a start. 3 other guys around my age were getting oppurtunities handed to them left and right and pissing them down their leg in the same fashion. I kept my head down and just dealt with people that I had long standing relations with, because quite frankly I didn't have alot of confidence in my abilities and wanted to keep my exposure minimum. Not these other 3. Blowing big stories to anybody that would listen, buying stuff on promise-to-pay-later terms. After about 3 years all but one are done. The 3rd one had his new wife die very tragically,it made national news, leaving him alone with a new baby. The local community donated a lifetime of money to him, so he is still going.
During that time I asked a guy about a piece of hayland that he owned. I noticed he didn't cut that year and I saw someone else had cut the ditches on the land he rented from a elderly couple. He looked me square in the eye and said, Yes he was looking for some one to do it but it wasn't gonna be some young guy like me. We are all just a flash in the pan. He was looking for someone that was gonna be doing it for many years. I said thanks and went on my way. Found out later his brother got burnt by one of the wanna be BTOs.
I was a indirect victim of them other 3 a-holes pissing everyone off. I totally understand your reasoning for your decision but I still to this day harbor a bad taste about that guy cuz of what he said that day. So my advice is try not to let your dis-taste show.
