Do you think you are going to make it in life?

I know bro stuff is crazy with the economy being horrid and people not doing justice for all sorts of trades, practically working for free in some cases. I have my own problems and about to join the marines to save my *** and continue college while in. Do I think I will make it in life? Seriously man I dont know. I know I want to and I will try even though I have wasted lots of time making bad mistakes in my past. I live in a small town where the jons are all gone and have been for a long while now. If you wanna make money on the side to help out or even go big time, i recommend going out finding lots of steel,scrap metal,aluminum (stay away from copper it raises to many eyebrows if you dont have a license of some sort like electricians have). Wooden pallettes aswell. You can make a killing off that stuff taking it in the right places. Just look around on google earth and if you live by a river go to the bottoms and stuff floats up all the time. Buy a trailer bed and a tarp and start collecting. I have made thousands within a few weeks of collecting metal/steel scraps. Call around and see who offers the best prices for that and the aluminum. Do online surveys and a bunch of them. You can make some pretty good bank off that like 3-400 a month if you bust your *** on them.
