Sure some will turn off their SMS, but many more will join and contribute to this being a business that can survive in a post credit card world where most other blogs will fold.

I hate to ask this, and don't mean to sound negative, but do you really want to spend the rest of your life posting amazon gold box deals in a post credit card environment? Wouldn't a normal job pay better and be less stressful? You do seem to have strong working skills. Is being able to work on the go and pack out on a moments notice essential?

I don't run the Amazon section of DD. I'd find something else to do with the DD traffic base if/when it comes to that.

Dan, I don't see why you feel a need to respond to a very personal and possibly offensive question.

With SG and DS it's hard for me to read when they're trying to be offensive or when they're just being rude so I seem to take the bait fairly often.

To complete dan's resume, I'd include terms like "team player", "out of the box thinker" and "leverages social media content to synergize production" or something.

Dan would have zero problem finding work; plenty of people would jump to hire him. But for some reason, I can't imagine him working for someone else.

I never had the chutzpah to ask this to him, especially on his own forum. But I've wondered the same, and now that someone else brought it up, I will comment on it.

We all know which direction the miles & points industry is going. And unless it turns into an only deals site (which is practically is already) I don't see it being sustainable.
