    Hello

    My name is Gary, I have gotten into to scrapping to help supplement my income to help speed up getting out of debt. My wife used to like my scrapping, but now tolerates it. She periodically still starts making the music with her from sanford and son. I do admit with my ADHD it can be difficult to process everything in a timely manner. I do a little a bit of it all. I have gotten into e-recycling but can't decide if I want to sell the boards or try to recover the gold myself. I guess I need to look at the cost. I met a guy on a pickup yesterday saying he works for a company that buys them, but the information on the pricelist seems fishy. Anyways now that I regained control of my ADHD, I will end my rambling. Thanks

    Welcome to the forum. Very few people successfully refine boards. You're better off selling to one of the buyers on this forum. Most are highly rated and will bend over backwards to help you!

    welcome to the forum, Gary. We all get the sanford and son jokes...or most of us. and when my truck is loaded I get the Beverly Hillbilly's jokes. Laugh and say what Mick says..."I'll laugh all the way to the bank." When you start bringing in cash the spouse usually stops the kidding !! All of us have something....glad you are doing well with yours. Read older threads as much as you can. Don't pay attention to contradictions, but read until you find out what the MAJORITY thinks and how they do things and you will succeed.

    I think a few of us have ADD dude..... Scrapping is something we can focus on because we enjoy....... School was hard enough, why make the rest of your life difficult. I have noticed that a lot of people with ADD succeed when put in an environment where they are in charge. I hate working for others! Welcome to the forum!
    Determine never to be idle. No person will have occasion to complain of the want of time who never loses any. It is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.
