The Don's Son In the Penalty Box

Okay, just a brief rant. I like to negotiate. But some folks just give the word a bad rep. I was watching CNBC and noted the Donald's Son being interviewed on how it is to survive in such difficult financial times. He was asked if he was cutting back on his spending and he allowed that he was saving for the great opportunities created by lowered asset prices (I agree with him here). Then he proceeded to say he liked to practice his negotiating skills by bargaining for a better price at whatever store he was shopping at. Now that is just too much!! You and I go into a store and try that, we might get 10-15% off...don't you think those stores are just falling all over themselves already when the Donald's Son strolls in. Somebody needs to tell the guy that this is like, well, easier than stealing candy from a baby! Get your negotiating practice at your own expense, not the little guy's expense!
