About this deal

When Buddy showed up, I worried right away he was going to be a problem. He’d been busted for dealing a few times, and with his record and appearance, he should have been the front car. Secrets of Drug Dealing Unveiled” — THE BUSINESS SECRETS OF DRUG DEALING author Matt Taibbi interviewed on Rising (4/1/2021) The Business Secrets of Drug Dealing tells the story of a hyper-observant, politically minded, but humorously pragmatic weed dealer who has spent a working life compiling rules for how to a) make money and b) avoid prison. Buddy didn’t have a clue what he was doing. He didn’t know how many grams there were in an ounce, how many ounces in a pound. He didn’t know the difference between profit and loss.

I don’t do that. I wear a nice polo, a nice pair of jeans, clean shoes. They don’t have to be gym shoes, they can be Sperry or whatever.He said Hughes spent around 75% of his income from selling drugs to feed his own habit, which had made him "vulnerable", and he had to pay for his cocaine. Get all the big headlines, pictures, analysis, opinion and video on the stories that matter to you.

I had a cousin named Buddy. His real name was Darnell, but people in his neighborhood started calling him Buddy after this ugly, flea-infested dog he had. I swear to god that dog had more sores than hair, more fleas than follicles. People started busting on him about that dog, naming him after it. I breezed through this book - I was able to envision very clearly the areas in Ibiza being discussed while reading, and found the story exciting and suspensive in a way a true story can. The load car was to be driven by another friend of his, from St. Louis I think. He was practically a high school kid, someone I didn’t know, by the name of Andre. Of all the books I've written, [ The Business Secrets of Drug Dealing is] the one that I'm probably most proud of.”—Matt Taibbi Buddy was a street dealer out there, a younger guy. He thought he was a real dealer until he met me. Then he saw what real money and real product looked like.

Julian Nutter, defending Hughes, said his client's one previous conviction, for drug dealing in Mallorca in 2018, related to him receiving a suspended sentence for having a small amount of MDMA on the Spanish island. He said Marshall's family would suffer from his absence, particularly his 16-year-old daughter, and unlike others in the gang, he didn't have an EncroChat phone. The 24-year-old even roped in his own dad to act as his private "chauffeur" and a drug courier, because he himself couldn't drive. But then all these California farmers got in this situation, and I suddenly had to unload a lot of product. I had no choice. St. Louis was a market I knew I needed. In business, racism is your friend. If you master the nuances of it, you will prevail. Race is everything in America, especially in law enforcement.

Then I let him in. I figured, well, he’s doing it on the streets, I’ll just level him up a little. Before I knew it, he’d skipped a couple rungs on the ladder. Made him overconfident. I couldn’t keep eyes on him in where he lived, but he was acting like a big fish there, shouting his name to the rooftops, which is what you don’t want to do. Author : United States. Congress. House.
