With copper at current prices, it pays 32 cents an ounce when people were lucky to get 25 cents an ounce(4 a pound) in the past. People in competitive areas I understand, but people in the midwest and rust belt where theres the most trash. Get into dumpster diving and just avoid bed bugs youll find hundreds of dollars of stuff and its fun. Start taking home vacuum cleaners and TVs to rip apart, and while youre waiting for market stuff to go by pass time by being active with your hands. This definitely won't have you make it but you smashing cans ripping up TVs and recycling the copper from the local construction site that's on the way back from work really adds up.

In Europe, your colleagues cut down live railway overhead lines at night.
Even that is less risky than working with old electronics full of flame retardant.

tough industry
your competition is high energy (on meth)
also they are highly motivated (need to buy more meth)

Yeah its a sacrifice and the financial + agricultural gods give me good luck due to me sacrificing thousands of hours and pounds to them. Its like being the firefighter of Chernobyl, the idea is for you to save enough metal that will provide for dozens of peoples lifetimes and then the net resources and suffering required with them goes down. I am already tall with back pain and worship gods of death so mainly its doing the shit others dont want to so I prevent kids from being forced to do it in an open pit mine deforesting. Also going to dollar general and stripping plastic from cardboard then taking the cardboard to recycling centers because they don't recycle at this point I've saved 50+ trees and the gods have given me multi baggers like Palantir with a gut feeling during a random conversation then I just happen to buy the local bottom. At this point if I die I don't care because more is living from my sacrifice than if I chose to "live" like the rest of the 8 billion biomass that just wakes up, goes to work, watches TV, and sleep. While they spend no time repairing things and they just throw everything out. My eyes are going to be lightning eye A10s when I am reborn or I am going to be a california redwood.

you know I actually never needed the money and this is what I mean by people being too haughty and snooty to do it. I've been doing this since I was a sober boy and my portfolio has 3x'd in the last year from the picks the nature gods have given me from my sacrifice of hundreds of pounds of aluminum and copper. People like you piss me off because thats why theres a stigma and america throws away 1/3 of their metal while germany recycles 99%. Inner city people litter and laugh about making the white man pick it up, Indian hands typed this I made more in passive income from my stock portfolio than you get from shilling bulldozer coin

I am an electrician who scraps all his waste and I get maybe 1k per year if that

Unless you are suggesting I ride around in a truck sifting through garbage, which is maybe 1 level above panhandling

Depends what tier you are at my family has dumpster dove for generations and thats true if youre going to like walmart but theres select locations its good you just need discernment. Its one step above pan handling if youre going through rotten food in walmart trash. Going to verizon and getting their old appliances and just snipping the cords to get connector (0.20 cents a pount) and for wire. I am encouraging you do it when you are right there/on you way I dont mean go out of your way to do it unless youre going out on garbage night to get something. I mean like youre riding around in your truck youre looking at the curb, someones throwing away a vacuum and TV, you pull over and get it. Like after work you notice on the way home theres a construction site you go through the garbage theres aluminum wire and you strip it and get extruded aluminum.

>>60560496
Its honest work and it isn't like you are eating it we are talking about like construction sites, verizon, and mostly your neighbors curb. also electrician bro it depends where you live this is mostly good advice for states like Ohio where people throw away a bunch of shit you just need to be smart about where you do it. Ive stripped so many zoomers and gen alphas smart TVs I have a massive bag of the gold finger boards that was honestly earned.

Nice try kike. I easily make 6 figs scraping a year and I only work 3 days a week 4 hours a day tops. You just want wagies to show up to the slave factory.

>>60560536
Congrats, near me it's less than 5$ per hour because of the competition, the panhandle clear 15

>>60560408 (OP)
idk where you live but where i live scrapping is for fentanoids and alcoholics.

It's still copper on the top wire. It's just that it's been tinned. Holy shit are you serious. You need copper for the skin effect.

>>60560496
>which is maybe 1 level above panhandling
panhandling doesn't require any actual labor aside from walking to a spot, so it's superior

Everyone here seeing it as purely how much dollars you get when you cash it in makes me laugh and has no concept of the upcoming metal shortages, nor the concept of luck being how much god likes you so why wouldn't doing things thatd help agricultural gods increase your luck aswell? I have had multibagger picks given to me after making $2 an hour for 100 hours its about the luck retard my portfolio mogs yours and I strip plastic from zip ties to recycle the steel you clearly aren't Ronald Read pilled. Yeah no shit the average scapper you see is a poor addict = bad, its fish bowl effect like boomers like to talk about but actually real because you dont see the rich and successful people who do it because they are busy no shit you don't see successful drug addicts they are CEOs like elon musk who dont advertise it.

>>60560486
It seems I must agree, on principle.

>>60564388
you fried your brain
biochemisty=reality

the rich each nutrient dense foods to offset the damage. You are cooked.

Find a butcher and buy bone marrow and brains. It's your only hope.

The Jew fears the Scrappy Scrapper.

>why don't you spend time doing stuff that's worthless

i only spend time doing high value activities like shitposting
