    That is actually kinda like my plan. I am saving all the good quality copper I get. However, right now, because there are so many scrappers in nc, and im not getting tonnage of scrap at the moment, I am using all the money I get from steel to buy supplies and gas, and alum and stainless to buy silver. I do think that investing in copper is a good idea though. Think about all the copper you can find in almost anything involving electronics. Copper is obviously, like anything we deal with, a finite resource. Short term, is it a good investment? Maybe, maybe not. I think long term, however, its very likely you will get more for your copper than you will now. Even if this isn't true, and copper prices stay pretty much the same, then you have an ace in the hole if you have a couple of bad months. In my opinion, a truck load of copper is a nice safety blanket.
