This note could have fit in the Avoiding Rip-Off's section or one of the sections about not attracting police attention, but I felt it was so important to deserve it's own section.

Too often, when a dealer becomes intoxicated by the income level and the social aspects of marijuana distributing, pe becomes a bit of a braggart. Pe may talk about what wonderful connections pe has, or how much cash pe goes through in a month, or the massive quantities pe deals in. And sometimes it's difficult to grasp just how dangerous loose lips can really be. The person you're talking to might want to become involved, but not have any knowledge or reliability; the person might start thinking about ripping you off; and worse case scenario, the person might be a narc, or have a friend who is a narc. Once you start bragging about your drug dealing, it's scary how quickly that information gets around to all sorts of people you may or may not know.

So if you have a tendency to brag a lot (and keep in mind that most braggarts probably don't recognize their own problem), or talk openly about your drugs or money, my recommendation is to do everything in your power to convince yourself to stop. When it comes to your drug dealing, never divulge information that you don't absolutely need to.
