So basically today my job just completely screwed me over. They want me to pay taxes to 2 countries instead of just the one I reside in. To top it off they tell me 2 weeks before they are due in the other country. So basically I am done with the traveling work, for now. Normally I would be sad but I view this as an opportunity. I have a severe hatred for bureaucracy and the office politics of my job and I view this as a chance to strike it out on my own.



So I plan on beginning a full time scrapping business. With an emphasis on ewaste component recycling

I have about a little over a ton of circuit boards stored up so that can keep me busy for awhile. But i am still a bit nervous about the future, I guess everyone is when they first start out.


Any insights from full time scrappers would be most appreciated. Part time scrappers dont be afraid to post your insights as well!



Also as a corollary, I have read the post " if you had 5k to spend on scrapping..." Now to expand it a bit, assuming you had a truck, basic tools etc. what would you spend 10k on?


Can't wait to hear what you guys have to say
