Winners and Losers

Business folks sometimes have blinkers on, to get a good profit margin on one item, you sometimes have to take a hit on another, fact of life, probably, do some folks refuse to acknowledge the existence of loss leaders?

You are right Spitty, it's the average that gives the bottom line and any sensible business knows that all too well.

It depends who these people are? But Freddy Laker the airline entrepreneur made millions and then went bankrupt and still remembered to this day!

It's how you market your goods that brings the profit, if you have a loss you can pull it back in some other way..
