Dear Ira,

You raised very interesting question that was discussed by Plato just a few 
years ago.

"Suppose now that a husbandman, or an artisan, bring some production to 
market, and he comes at time when there is no one to exchange with him, - 
is he to leave his calling and sit idle in the market-place? Not at all; he 
will find people there who, seeing the want, undertake the office of 
salesmen. ... their duty is to be in the market, and give money in exchange 
for goods to whose who desire to sell and to take money from those who 
desire to buy."

So you are needed as much as anybody else in the society. Hope that this 
understanding will light up your day (especially, when market is going 
against you wishes).

Antique Alex.
