My buddy did it for a bit with blow. He was making thousands a week, with very little effort. The thing is though, it doesn't really work if the dealer has an addiction to his own product.

He was getting it in large quantities and it was uncut. For someone who is addicted to blow, this was the worst thing he could have in his possession. He let me try a bit of it before it was cut, and if anyone remembers that scene in the movie "blow" where the guys eyes go wide and he says "I can't feel my face"....My reaction was pretty close to that.

...and if anyone's done blow, you know that it leaves you wanting more. Now a normal person/casual user will do what they have and go "well, that's it". Where as an addict will keep getting more until they can't get it anymore. Now imagine you're addicted and there's enough blow to last you days in your house.

At one point, he did 11 grams of pure cocaine in one night, almost died, and then went to rehab.

So I guess the moral of the story is, drug dealing brings lots of easy money, but isn't worth the risk, and lifestyle change.
