Work it fulltime or partime

For many years I worked at the business fulltime. I came to realize that through my efforts I was not only doing good for myself and my family, but for the community and, in a general sense, the planet.

Once you get into this, you'll see what I mean. You'll also see the tremendous amount of waste that our society generates. Through our efforts a little less goes into the landfills, a little less is mined, a few less trees are cut, a little less hazardous waste is generated, a little less pollution is created ... use your imagination.

At some point I decided I wanted to learn more about the society I lived in and both my wife and I went to college in our 40s and earned degrees, using the nest egg we had built up doing our recycling and salvage work. It was well worth it, but we stayed in college longer than we expected and I had to begin earning an income again.

To get through, I turned once again to my salvage business. A few hours a week was all it took.

During and after college I began to do GIS (geographic information system) mapping and research as a consultant, focusing on environmental pollution. This new work fit very well with my old -- all held together very neatly by my desire to provide myself and family a better life now and in the future. Let me explain.

As I got into recycling I realized how much "material" of all sorts and descriptions was dumped, discarded, burned, buried ... I realized the production, consumption and destruction of most everything I saw had a toxic chemical and energy aspect to it. The more I salvaged, recycled and reused, the less toxics and energy needed to be produced. My interests, drives and challenges are now equally and happily split between salvage, recycling and reuse, and cartography and research with a focus on toxic chemicals.

The point is that you can make this business suit your needs -- full-time, part-time, stay small, grow, home based -- you only work it as much as you want or need to. Make it fit with your interests, other income earning things you do or reinvent yourself as a recycling, salvage and reuse entrepreneur -- the choice is yours.

The potential is there to make a near unlimited income if you work hard at it. The potential is also there to live a simple yet fulfilling life without working all that much. The choice is yours -- like it ought to be, don't you think?.
