I'v lost track of time 7 - 8 years I have recycled (scrapped) metals
all that matters is in my beginning it was Hay day . Math was really not an issue
it was clear put fuel in truck - hunt - find - sell - and the wallet was full .
yeah it was like a dream ,
Well now that I started to analyze true math of any project I do
the profit is still good and percent over cost is what any businessman would want
after all most curb hunters find free
Yet clearly with out volume the hourly rate does not lie LIKE creating a true 40 to 50 hrs of pay per week
----------------------------------
No question If a person has a job & scraps as a hobbie
Scrapping is a profitable hobbie
It's clear selling metals is unique compared to other business .
Success will happen on Volume of weight , and favorable commodity prices
the need to sell metals in volume is obvious ,
But
are (or were ) you a recycler who relied on high commodity prices with low volume
or
a volume seller who benefited from previous commodity prices
but could still manage based on volume .
It's clear to me with a pickup truck I am a favorable commodity price scrapper
Now at-least I know.
