What did you scrap?

I took an electric stove, three 55-gallon drums of steel chips/turnings, some file cabinets, and other assorted tin and light steel in today. Needed to clean up and make some space. My yard isn't paying anything for tin, so all I got was $6 for a 30-pound stainless steel scale.

Ugh. Not very good timing. But when you need space, you need space.

Very interesting to see someone find a proof set at a scrap yard!
Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).
NOTE: ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- often
substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) and selling short as well.
