Coppers at $6.60 a pound!. How do I remove the lacquer?

0 gauge each colored wire. Thwn and what I assume is a lacquer coating. Everything else checks out and it’s copper but I’ll get #1 if I clean it!

Edit: copper*
Edit: Apparently it’s #2 because of strand size. Other yard said it was because it has a lacquer coating. Only lost 65lbs to em

21 with a business and lost on what to do next.

After I saved up 10 grand waiting tables during my teens, I started a Christmas light business when I turned 18 and have been running it seasonally every year.
But that’s just the problem, it’s seasonal. It runs from October-January and the first year I did $10k in November.

Second year $20k, third year I made a mistake with marketing (bought a commercial, dumb mistake) and made about $23k. I know I could easily scale to $100k this November. Here’s my problem though; EVERY. SINGLE. February… all the way up until October I stagnate trying different side hustles or ventures and go broke while doing it.

Doesn’t help that I decided to move out on my own last year and now I’m broker than ever. Most of my business ideas require money that I can’t afford. And the ones that don’t require much money I never make enough progress in for me to feel like it’s worth it. Or It burns through all the money I have and focus on door dashing

I feel like I just have this high standard since I started out so strong and my mentor/brother keeps saying I’m behind.

Just lost on the next move…. Any advice would help.
