    Better late then never

    Over all I see all metals the same , Gold , Silver are the king and Queen Copper Brass Aluminum Lead SS - are knights in shiny armor . any and all metal is a part of the royalty. It's value can flux but seems to be the true economy .- Oil lower - scrap lower -



    Better late then never what am I talking about ?
    I scrap any time I am out in the world & as I am out and about I find something big or small . I see now to earn $100 per week from just casual finds is easy enough . But remember as I go places I look and stop , sorry Kids DEAL with it !!
    So I do scrap NOW - But sadly I think of 38 years of no scrapping using age 17 when I started to drive and yes steel was probably .02 a pound at best
    yet copper was .50's or so even AL was in the .30's as I have been told . fuel was under a buck slice of pizza .50

    I feel I could of been casually finding the goods for the last 38 years with the equivalent value of a current $100 so yeah 1976 I just know I could of found $25 per week I bet more was out then
    cause little publicity back then

    OK lets do the math using $100 a week as the uniform value = $197,600.00 of reality
