    Jackpot

    So the wife works in a nursing home. The nursing home decides to replace the entire HVAC system. Guess who jumped the maintenance man and got dibs on disposal of the old equipment. My dear wife just made my day. The entire system is mine, small outside units, large commercial units, and PTAC units from every room. Now she'll be complaining about the piles of AC units everywhere.

    Did I read that correctly? {Now she will be complaining about the piles of cash everywhere}.

    My wife and I see things differently. I see piles of cash, she sees piles if junk she wants me to sell for cash. Its all worthless in her mind until the green stuff is in her hand. I usually take her to the yard and let them hand her the money. That keeps her happy, and me in business. And every time we get paid, she asks me when can we take the next load. One of the guys at the yard has started calling us the "Dynamic Duo".
