Proverb was used, whereas the writer was able to use that “One man’s garbage is another man’s treasure”, is not just a phrase but it can actually come true. In the passage the writer used comparison where as he compared himself to Santa Clause because of how it would make donations to those families in need, almost as if he was really Santa Clause. In the passage Sam made it pretty clear on how much money you can make, so he used statistics and figures that showed the readers that you can benefit from the collecting of trash.
