I'm looking to dabble in the drugs trade, but I ain't the biggest of guys. And I got little to no foothold in the criminal world where I live, so I'm starting from scratch. What I need your advise for, is the fact that because I have no foothold, probability of me being robbed is high. I'm in the UK so I can't get hold of a gun. I just want some tips and precautions to take to minimise my risk of being robbed.

Don't advise me on anything else, I don't want any 'Get a job, drug dealings too risky' replies, clear?

You CAN get hold of a gun no matter where you live. Carry a knife? Do you have any friends? If so, use them as muscle. I'm sure they'll help for some cut and they SHOULD be trustworthy if they are your friends.

As far as minimizing risk: Don't be outnumbered. Don't be outweaponed. If something doesn't feel right then don't do it.

I know I could get hold of a gun, 'cos they're illegal, they cost a shitload of money I don't have. Through dealing I'd definately make enough to buy protection. As for a knife, I was planning on carrying one. My mates, don't entirely trust 'em. But I'll still bring a couple to bigger deals, just to make it look like I got muscle huh?

Thanks by the way, a serious reply as the first.

Que the 13 year old internet tough guy responses.

Idiot, you're going to get hurt because you haven't got the 1st clue about it.

I live in the UK and getting a gun is fucking easy and it's legal if you're 18+.

You don't even need a fucking gun for the small time shit you're gonna be doing such as slangin a few 2 gram bags and a few pills.

No they don't cost shitloads at all, you get them cheap by asking your dealer or any football hooligans you know; these people can usually get you a fake ID too.

You need a fucking supplier 1st, and by that I mean a reliable dealer that you KNOW won't rip you off or rat on you and who you know will be in supply.

Smoke some weed 1st and get in with the crowd and get to know people 1st and then come abck and ask some questions (your question is too fucking broad). Don't sell shit you know fuck all about.

You sound like a little bitch and would probably fuck it up anyway.


To answer the question about not being robbed though, don't let people know/see where you keep your weed, deal from your home (it'd be easier to, trust me), keep your shit in a safe/lock box that's fitted to the floor, never front weed to people you don't know or haven't been dealing to for a while, or simply don't trust or know they won't be reliable in paying you in anytime soon (e.g. have other habits, are poor, unreliable as it is etc) and when you do front people keep a log of it (trust me it's easy to forget if you have a lot of customers coming to you everyday); personally I never fronted.

If you don't trust your mates the don't fucking bring them, don't be stupid.

Go out and learn the hard way like all the rest of us did with 1st hand experience, learn something and then I'll help you further.

I hate people who think dealing is a way of life, it's a fucking hobby and smart to keep it that way.
You're getting in over your head.

Exactly. OP, if you have to ask such basic questions as this, you shouldn't be doing it.

I'm sorry I just... Need a bit of extra cash... And I figured since I've been in the whole drugs scene for the past TEN FUCKING YEARS I FIGURED I MAY AS WELL USE MY FUCKING CONNECTIONS TO THEIR ADVANTAGE.

But... Ok. I started the thread for conversations sake anyway.

P.S, I live near you Mr. Slim. I live in Derby. It's fun here. So very fun.

<3

O RLY?

Which area?
Personally I think it's shit (clubs are somewhat shit as well, especially Zanzi).

Mace and smarts. Trust no one. A knife is a good start but if you don't know how to use it or fight at all you will get stabbed with your own shit.

Alright, kinda near Derby not actually in there. Just on the closest side of Cheshire, the town on the other side of the Cat n Fiddle. You know the one.

And I was sayin' it was fun 'cos it isn't. Sarcasm.

Do what this guy did.
