Title: Fascinating look at how to profit by others waste & laziness
Product review: This book tells the story of how the author John Hoffman was raised in near poverty and how his parents provided for their children in part by raiding trash dumpsters in a nearby town. To this day (1993) Hoffman professes to still live by those principals of salvaging food, clothing and all sorts of other items carelessly thrown away by other people.I think he's got a lot of hot air in what he says but so much of it rings so true that you know he's got to be right. I particularly like the tips given for conducting a search of a dumpster, how to lean in, how to watch for sharp objects, so many other things. This book really will teach you something, buy it even if you never plan to dumpster dive.
