Talk about putting your foot in your mouth!! To make up for being a fool I asked a friend who is a small flower shop owner (about 25 sales per day), "What would it take for you to accept a form of payment different then the normal ones?" Answer: Short term: "5 people asking for it, and then a representative coming around to sell me the way to do it." Long term not much (she just wants the money and to serve the customer). She accepts Diners Club and less then 1% of her customers use it. She noted the biggest drawback for her was waiting for Amex / Discover to post a sale. She got excited when I asked her if 2 seconds was too long to wait ;) Jeff Fitzmyers wrote: > I don't recall the exact question, but my short and flippant answer: When all > the money the fed has counterfeited starts to *really* come home (inflation) > and people 'get it' creating demand.
