Right now junk is up. Way up. I took a couple of vehicles in not too long ago and made a nice chunk of change.

I bought 100 computers a while back, and opened a computer repair/used computer shop. I have 30-40 of them left. I have made my money, and then some.
What I needeth to know, is information regarding the following:
I do not know the number of units, but I have some old 486's among the ones I have left. I will not be able to selleth them, and heard they can be scrapped. You heard anything about such a deal?

Yes, but you have to have a lot more of them to make any money. All computers have small amounts of precious metals in them and there is an industry for recycling them. However, most of these companies are on the West Coast. You could try calling Best Buy to ask them if they know of any places in your area.

Thanks for the advice. I will look into it.

When you consider the value of the Dollar the "stimulus" was really not stimulus at all.
Inflation is one reason gas is so sky high too

The stimulation, lowered by inflation, was eaten alive by a purchase at the gas station.

I can relate to the lack of moolah brother. That's why I'm rising early tis week 4:00 AM filling in for my boss while she's on vacation (haven't had one in over 4 years myself).
Maybe you will get a reward for being the TOP Salesperson with your company and get to see this beautiful state one day.

Well we have lots of junk here at our dump. They separate the old refrig, and othrr appliances and metals from the junk cars. Usualy a barge comes up and picks it all up. Our city could sure use the $$.
