    Well, a couple points to make here:

    1: If you don't know what you are doing you have less chance of being successful
    2: If people who don't know what they are doing are adversely affecting your business, then you are doing something wrong too
    3: Like any business, you have to seize opportunities as they present themselves. That may mean being in position to capitalize on the mistakes of those that wont learn/listen
    4: If you are good at what you do, then your services will always be in demand...AND...you can typically set your own price.
    5: SMF is one of the best tools available to help scrappers succeed, whatever you define as success

    I forgot who has this tag line but it is very appropriate when considering how successful you want to be (paraphrase): "Do what others cant do and/or do what other wont do"
