Liking country music may have no obvious connection to iPhones, but for me it has a connection. I just ran across this article about a guy that had the same plan as me: buy an iPhone or two and then make a profit by selling them on eBay. The only difference between us is that I know the music of Kenny Rogers and took the lessons to heart while he did not. To save you the time of reading that article he bought an iPhone, put it on eBay and sold it at a $40 loss. I, on the other hand saw that there was too much supply and not enough demand and walked away. I did as Kenny Rogers recommends:
"You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count your money when youre sittin at the table.
Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done."
So next time you aren't sure what to do, dig into your collection of country music for advice. Or just use common sense and find some arbitrary connection between two disparate objects. :-)
