Many Gangers pick up various skills in their lives in the Underhive, some that are useful in battle, some that are useful before or after. Many Leaders value skilled Gangers in everyday life and Gangers that can help when he goes out looking for a bargain, doubly so. When he goes to the Trading Post, a Leader is assailed by possible bargains and by more probable cons. The Guilders swarm when they see a money belt, laden with credits and the new, green Leader can easily be swayed into buying something that he may not need or on the long run cannot offord. But if he has an experienced Ganger with him, one with knowledge of the ploys and deceptions that the Guilders use to entrap unwary gangers, then his is usually going to come of better in the long run as he continually picks at the cover stories that Guilders make up for the various items of Archeotech they dig up in the Badlands.
