    It's that no before the nothing that kills it.

    Could have meant 'know nothing but cash'.

    Strangely, I've had a few - usually from friends. One, I quilted her french braid. I gave her a price and she countered,... Higher. The other one, she wanted a machine I had and so I gave her a price and she said "I was thinking about this much" again higher. Weirst thing. I don't know if I'm pricing too low or my friends are very generous, but I sure do feel like someone's taking care of me.
