...you probably have a skill that not everybody knows how to do.
We're bingeing on Breaking Bad, and musing that not only do neither of us know how to make meth, we wouldn't even know who to sell it to. What, do you just walk up to strangers and go, "Hey, wanna buy some meth?" And yet there are lowlife shitbags who are functionally illiterate, but they know how to make drugs and they know how to get paid.
It's amazing.
Even if I wanted to buy pot for some reason, I wouldn't know where to start. I guess I'd go to a bar where young people hang out and ask the bartender, right? But then he'd think I was a cop or something and wouldn't tell me. Or I'd be afraid he was a narc and would bust me.
So that's what I'm thinking about right now - people who have skills that are completely alien to me.
