About how I do scrap business;
While many people are chasing visibility, some of us are quietly building systems from the boring businesses.
I didn’t enter the scrap business to “buy and sell.” I entered to understand how value moves.
Over time, I realised something:
The real money is not in the scrap.
It’s in controlling supply and logistics.
Anyone can find goods to buy.
Not everyone can move them efficiently, consistently, and at scale.
Margins in this business are small.
But when your system is right, small margins become serious money.
Most people focus on today’s deal.
I focus on building a structure that works next year, and the year after.
This is the difference between a trader and a company.
One depends on effort.
The other depends on systems.
I’ve seen what happens when operations rely too much on the owner.
Growth becomes limited.
And risk becomes personal.
So the focus is simple:
Build something that runs.
Whether I’m there or not.
Bro, marry a woman you love and who loves you back.
Then watch those tweets from twitter girls about not washing for imaginary husbands become funny.
Because the truth is, a woman who truly loves you will be eager to wash for you, and you’ll be the one saying NO.
The biggest in every room should interact with caution.
People are looking for your fault
People are expecting your fail
People are designing your fall.
Don't allow anybody who was there but refused to participate in your struggle to come enjoy part of your glory. Once they are not mad, they all know what they are doing.
A lot of financial gurus will tell you to increase your income sources. I am here to tell you to improve the single source you have. You cannot underrate the power of operating at a very very high altitude.
If you are doing the same business and earning the same profit for quite some time and you think you are stable, you are not. Stability in business comes in form of either growth or regress and not stagnation. Keep upgrading, keep moving.
