Subject: recycling paper - can I quit my job?

Hi there
 
I was researching on the net to find a home based business. In my search I came accross a site that said that it is very possible to make $100,000 per year recycling paper. It stated that high grade office paper pays up to $120 per ton, old news papers $50 per ton. I looked up the few places listed in the yellow pages and called them. Most said they do not pay for me to take paper to them. Only one place said they would only pay me $20 for a ton of high grade office paper!
 
Should I be discouraged, is this all that I can expect to get paid? If not how do I find the places that do pay $120. I'm in Ottawa, Ontario (Canada). I feel like I'm at a dead end since I called all the numbers in the phone book under recycling.
 
Thanks very much
Annette
