I had a neighbor call me the other day to help someone from his church clean up a BIG tree that was down. I had to decline as, one I needed no wood (got more than I can handle now), two it would cost me a good bit in fuel and time to do it that would be better spent working for paying customers, and three, I've simply got too much work to do right now.
I called a friend who has a tree service and who takes a lot of the wood he gets and has it sawed in to boards, along with doing firewood. He said the same thing I did about the whole deal.
On top of what I've said so far, think about this. If your cutting up this tree and hit something with the saw and damage the chain, or the saw itself, make a cut and pinch/bend the bar, etc, it's going to cost you big to repair.
In the end, if you want to do it just to do a 'good deed' and to help the people out, then great. If your doing it with the intent to make money, I'd say your time is better spend elsewhere as this has very little on the upside as far as profit, but has the risk of costing you all of your potential profit and then some if something should go wrong.
