    Scrap Metal Business- Reply

    Sorry but the thread "Warning- Before you start a scrap metal business." has just become to negative. So I am posting my reply in a new thread.

    It doesn't matter what level or volume you are, or what business you are in.. The bottom line (in my book) is.

    Learn your product-Doesn't matter if its scrapping, farming, sales, or manufacturing. Product knowledge is key for profitability, safety and piece of mind. This forum is a great tool for that.

    Safety first- Someones/your life/limb isn't worth all the gold in them pretty purple processors.

    Integrity and ethics- It will keep people coming back, and you out of jail.

    Its your choice.

    Again. Just my 2 cents worth.

    Live long and prosper.

    At the heart of science is an essential balance between two seemingly contradictory attitudes--an openness to new ideas, no matter how bizarre or counterintuitive they may be, and the most ruthless skeptical scrutiny of all ideas, old and new. This is how deep truths are winnowed from deep nonsense. -- Carl Sagan
