I think that's a step that's skipped by many of the "people" you reference. My saying is, "Fortune favors the prepared who have done their homework." I read for YEARS before I purchased a single thing, and that has prevented me from making too many dreadful mistakes and enabled me to often recognize a treasure when I spot one. Read, read, read! And then read some more. You can't read enough, even when you think you have, and just googling doesn't count.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17093220429913265429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5315368106736177085.post-60793047664464739672010-09-16T12:57:00.909-04:002010-09-16T12:57:00.909-04:00Yep, lots and lots of rummaging and poking about. ...Yep, lots and lots of rummaging and poking about.
