Very often on the forum, a question will get posted or a comment will be made that turns into an entirely different topic. Of course, we all try to do our best to stay on track with what we were originally talking about, but sometimes, straying away a little can end up providing a lot of great information. It is only natural when you have a wealth of knowledge and experience like we do over there.

Recently, a member posted a question concerning real numbers and the claims that some vendors make about how much they make at any given show. Most of us agree that it just isn't a good idea to give out specific information about how much you do or don't make selling jewelry at a show, but every once in awhile, you run into those who like to brag, and it gets you to wondering about all kinds of stuff:

Do they really make that much?

How can they?

Why don't I make that much?

Are they just full of you-know-what?
