Debunking the Myth of Wire Burning for Personal Gain pt2

In this video, I discuss the economics of recycling different types of metal scrap, including household cable and flex cable. I demonstrate that burning and weighing in household cable is not worth the effort, as you actually make more money by weighing it in directly. I provide the math to show that the profit margins are higher this way. I also address comments from viewers who accused me of only doing this to make more money for myself, and I refute that claim by showing the numbers. The key takeaway is that modern recycling technology makes it more profitable to simply weigh in household cable rather than burning it. #recycling #metalscrap #householdcable #profitmargins #metalrecovery
