This is a big..... who the hell knows. I've been predicting an upswing for the last four years and it's only gotten worse. This article simply says.... sooner or later thing will improve, duh.
Too little, too late for many of my lumber friends. Let's hope sooner rather than later.

Thoughts, ideas, things on my mind. From the mind of a small town man who grew up in Northwest Ohio and now lives in Visalia, CA. Concerns and observations of our ever changing world. Whatever pops into my mind.

It is unwise to pay too little...............
The quote below was written a well over 100 years ago by John Ruskin, but still rings true. I especially like the last line.
Thought for the day....... "Save big money (or waste big money) at.... "
“It is unwise to pay too much, but it is unwise to pay too little.
When you pay too much, you loose a little money; that is all. When you pay too little you sometimes lose everything.
Because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing you bought it to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot.
It cannot be done.
If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run and if you do that, you will have enough to pay for something better.
There is hardly anything in the world that someone can’t make a little worse and sell a little cheaper – and people who consider price alone are this man’s lawful prey”. - John Ruskin 1819-1900
