Making Money selling Firewood?

[BigDog1956]

Well MM all I can say is GREAT video--after first $1000. repair I don't think you'll really be making money, but your doing what you want to on a dandy piece of property.
BUT-BUT- I can tell you how to make money easier, and that would be to make video's for folk's you did a real nice job, I've not seen many homemade video's (if any) as good as your's.......

Keegs, No I don't factor in the property ownership, taxes or health insurance. I do consider seasoning and delivering wood is extra. Most people pick up here though. Obviously if this was a full time gig I would have a huge overhead compared to what I do now. I look at it this way, It's just supplemental income and it's like my land giving back a little all the while improving my woodlot. I get monthly royalty checks as well from oil and gas. It's expensive maintaining property and the royalty payments and firewood sales help with that substantially. As far as safety goes you're right, it's dangerous business felling trees and cutting wood but I look at it this way. At least when I'm in the woods my safety depends totally on me. At my real job I spend most of my days on the road driving for hours on end for 1/2 hour meeting then back on the road. The things I see on the highway and the way people drive scare me lol, and all I can do there is buckle up, hold on, and drive defensively lol
