Ok... Where to begin. Well, my friend had this guy who he trusted and basically fronted him zones of name brand dank with an acknowledged tax for the frontage, and things went well for a few months, until one day my friend gets a call from the guy asking for a re-up, saying he had the $400 for the first zone and wanted a new one. So, my friend was at the bottom of his bag and only had something like 22 grams, so he took 400, divided it by 28, then multiplied that number by 22 so that the guy would be getting the exact same price for 22 that he would have been given for 28.
So, when he gives this guy the PR on the 22 g's, the guy fucking FLIPS OUT. He's screaming motherfucker this and fuck you that and I'm gonna spend your money on hookers and hangs up the phone. My friend calls the guy back and says "motherfucker I'm gonna be at your house in half an hour and you better have my fucking money" and the guy he's been fronting to has the audacity to say "if you come anywhere near my house I swear to God I will narc you out and have the cops here to meet you". Well, needless to say, my friend is still out $400, and call him crazy, but he never narced on that guy, figuring he'll get what's coming to him. I should probably mention that my friend was about 18 at the time and this guy was 29 at the time but they'd known each other for years before this happened... Just goes to show you that you never know who you can trust.
... So this same friend ran into a bit of shitty luck this last Summer. He was getting elbows of medical fronted to him at a pricey number and in the same one week period, he fronted a half o to two different friends (1 to each of them comprising an ounce he was trying to fetch $420 for). Well, one guy actually moved to Colorado and the other blocked his phone number and basically pulled a bitch move and disappeared but he'll get his if karma comes into play. OK, so SAME FRIEND, SAME WEEK. One of our other best friends introduced his girlfriend's brother, this dude we'll call M, to my friend. My friend then did business with M for a good month or so, and one day M calls my friend for an ounce of medical.
So, my friend says no problem, but M says "hey, I'm actually at work and that's for my friend, so is it cool if you meet up with him? He's totally chill and straight and I vouche for him." So, seeing as how M was legit (up to this point) and how he needed money, he agreed to meet up with this guy at a Burger King. So, dude calls him up and they talk, agree on a PR, agree on a spot to meet at, and my friend goes inside, orders a meal, sits in a secluded booth and waits for the dude to come inside, where he had been instructed to meet my friend. Well, my friend sits there, finishes his lunch, and the guy is like 15 minutes late so my friend calls him to see what the fucking deal is. The dude answers the phone and my friend tells him "come inside" and the guy says "no, a motorcycle cop just parked and is coming inside right now. So, my friend looks out the window, sees that there is in fact a motorcycle cop coming in to eat lunch or whatever, and decides ok, I'll just go meet this guy.
So the dude says "here, hop into my ride real quick." and as soon as my friend gets into this dudes car, the guy immediately starts driving. So my friend is like "what the fuck man I have places to go and people to see" and the guy is being chill, saying "oh, it's cool bro, my apartment is right over here and I got a digi so I can check that shit real quick." so my friend, feeling nervous because this guy is driving him into a back alley area (apt complex was behind a grocery store) and so he's making small talk, talking about the strains that have came into town lately and whatnot. So, the guy parks his car, backing into a spot so the front of his car is facing out, pulls a digi out of the center console, and proceeds to weigh the bag. So, in a split second, the motherfucker reaches under the seat and pulls out this big black and silver pistol and puts it to my friend's chest and says "get the fuck out now homie."
So my friend literally just says "shit." and the guy says "walk that way and you better not fucking turn around." so my friend gets out and starts walking away. As he starts walking away, 2 more dudes come out of the bushes and hop into the ride and they all speed away. My friend then immediately ran to the grocery store and called the cops, filing an anonymous police report that 3 mexicans in a blue nissan maxima are swerving all over the road, obviously drunk, and were waving a gun around and threatening other motorists with it. Then, he called M and said WHAT THE FUCK and M stands by the fact that he didn't know anything about it, offers to make it right, and even says "I don't care how, I'm gonna get you your money. I don't condone shit like this happening." Well, long story short, my friend obviously never saw a dime of that money, and obviously never will, but he knows where M works and thinks he was in on it. I second the fact that violence over a couple hundred dollars or catching an assault with a deadly weapon charge over a couple hundred dollars just isn't worth it, but I know in my heart that my friend really wants to fucking get a moment alone with the guy responsible for this.
My friend considered heavily lacing a bowl of herb with K and smoking it with M, and then when he got fucked up my friend was gonna rob his ass blind, but he's just not a mean spirited person. Needless to say, having lost about $850 in 3 separate deals when he was working on the front with his boy basically caused him to retire for a while. He paid off his hook, counted his losses, and decided to chill. The lessons to be learned by this story: MONEY FIRST, DON'T FRONT TO ANYONE UNLESS YOU'RE READY TO TAKE A LOSS OR THEY'RE ULTRA RELIABLE AND EVEN THEN DON'T COUNT ON GETTING PAID, and NEVER, EVER EVER EVER EVER DEAL WITH PEOPLE YOU HAVE A BAD FEELING ABOUT OR DON'T KNOW DIRECTLY.
Keep everything within your circle of friends and don't ever let dollar signs get in front of common sense. Oh, and I also wanted to add that tasers are lovely inventions, because A) if you pull one out, you can use it and B) it's non lethal force, so you drop the fool, kick him in the nuts a few times, taze him once more for good measure, take his shit for trying to rob you, and peace. Lessons learned, children. Take notes.
