Hustling
Completely random, I know.
I was curious about what the definition of "Hustling" is. I read the definition from many dictionary websites, and I got different definitions.
Like, one said it's a way of getting money; whereas another one said it's an illegal way of getting money.
Is hustling legal or illegal? Or can it be either? Explain.
I am not talking about the hustling dance. I am talking about the other kind of hustling.
Thanks. =]

Hustle, scam, con. They're all pretty much the same thing.
Hustling someone is tricking them for your own gain, taking advantage of them in some way. It can be as simple as lying about being crappy at poker so that you can clean out everyone at a table when they drop their guard, or as illegal as sending e-mails asking for financial information which you then use to commit identity theft.
Hustling usually refers to the trick itself. The e-mail that makes you think your bank needs your personal information is a hustle. A used car salesman talking you into buying an old sports car as opposed to a 3 year old honda that costs the same, when the sports car is a piece of crap that needs work and the Honda isn't, is a hustle.
You might well have shown up to buy a car, you might not have spent more than a penny than you planned to, but you walk out with a shittier vehicle than you might otherwise have because you were convinced by a charismatic salesman that the sports car was just _meant_ for you.
Thats a hustle. You think you did just fine for yourself, the salesman is laughing about how he finally unloaded that piece of shit no one would touch on someone when they could have actually sold a decent car for the money they got.
