When selling to close friends and family, no matter how much you sell to them, they will always feel you're earning their money. No matter how cheaply you sell to them, they still wouldn't appreciate it. There will always be people who do not care about your costs, time, or effort. Instead, they let other people cheat them, allowing others to earn and support someone they know. Because in their heart, they will always be thinking, 'How much did he earn from me?' instead of 'How much did he save/make for me?' This is a classic example of a poor person's mentality.
When making sales, the first people who trust you will be strangers. Friends will be shielding against you, and fair-weather friends will distance you. The family will look down upon you.
The day you finally succeed in paying the bill for every get-together dinner and entertainment, you will realize that everyone else is present except the strangers.
