i need to move to austin tx.....

https://www.yahoo.com/makers/it-work...000053205.html

We need to talk to this dude..... $2500 a night dumpster diving!

Thanks for posting that. Unreal.

MEH!! More journalism where there was a definite disconnect between brain and pen!!

This guy made some money on a one time lucky dumpster dive...he pulled stuff out of store dumpsters that were brand new returns. Well, DUH!! 99% of us on SMF can turn that kinda stuff into cash just like mr. white collar did. Wonder if he asked permission?

Sensationalism in journalism. All this does is make it harder for us schmoes in the trenches to get stuff...more idjits who think that their old computer has 2 lbs of gold in it!!

Jon.. whose opinion of journalists has just ratcheted down another dozen notches..

Definitely had a BS factor about it, but I still liked it.

its VERY stupid for anyone to advertise ow much they make/made dumpster diving/scrapping

esp on a widely read website.
it will just make things harder for us

now im sure many of u in the US will have to deal with more people who expect a highly unreasonable amount of money for the scrap they have.

stupid, stupid, stupid

You can't hide public information in the 21st century, they will find out somewhere whats going on. The one who tells them is the one who earns loyalty. Loyalty is worth more than money.

Yea I agree he doesn't make 2500 per night he obviously did that a few times and claims he does. Otherwise sharing that kind of info he will easily get a stampede of people in Texas in front of him after advertising that like he did...

I don't have any notches left to ratchet down to when it comes journalists or DA's looking for their 15 minutes.

Or sell your rights as a business owner for someone to look through the dumpster
