Anybody reading this that’s young and don’t have any kids. Get your cdl and live out the truck bout a year and a half 2 years. Cut all your expenses and put all your things in storage. You can easily save up around 100k in 2 years and you can take that money and make great investments to earn money passively. I know that sounds like a lot but that one sacrifice will have you comfortable for the rest of ya life

@@lul__tre1396 well I wasn’t saying invest it back into trucking lol. You can if you want but you have to remember otr trucking is a lifestyle and you have to be prepared to be committed to it long term because weather you run or not them payments going to be due. As far as leasing and owning me personally I would rather buy but it is a few good leasing programs out there.

Listen to this man!!!!! I’m a 23 year old CDL DRIVER. I’ve been driving for about two years now. I used my late grandmothers will money for my classes. Went from a low paying Amazon worker. To finding a nice trucking gig with a local union. Now I’m a Truck driver , pipe Fuser, and pump tech all in one. On track to racking up 120,000$ with all the hours I work! Got married, moved out my moms house to a nice suburban condo, finally got my scat pack, have two kids, and have a dog. Trucking saved me and taught me how to be wise and smart with my money!!! Save invest and always learn!

@OGElites11 ай бұрын
@@f.j.c4444 my point exactly. My life did an exact 360 but this time around I was in a better position not repeating the typical 360 cycle. I could say 180 but I didn’t want to change the things that got me to where I wanted to be in life. 180 plus 180 is what? Correct, 360. Wouldn’t wanna have too many 180s because yes , at that point you would begin to fill like you were in a 360 cycle all along. For example, You leave your house drive to the store. (90 degrees) 2) You pick up the groceries and pay then load into your car. (180 degrees) 3) Drive back home and unload groceries from the car into your house. (270 degrees) 4) You unpack and sort. You then load newly bought food into the then empty refrigerator which is now full of food. (360 degrees) Are you back where you started, yes?! But a lot has transpired in between the start to finish. You can be back where you started and yet still be opposite of where you started. All at the same time and while still changing your position/outcome or circumstance(s). Without being at a moot point. You left with an empty fridge and ended with a full one. 360 degrees

I have been helping my husband with a trucking business for years! So when I see people with CDL license making hardly nothing it’s frustrating! Do your research! Go with the companies that are paying well! Fuel drivers make bank! Find a large chain fuel company and get onboard. Pay range is from 1500 to 2300 weekly. This is all while being a company driver. Quality Carriers leasing truck program. They are the highest paying trucking company ! (They haul toxic chemicals) Leasing program high end you make 20k a month, low end 12k a month ! This is AFTER fuel and truck payment! ( This program takes 8 months to a year to get in!) If you can buy your own truck the money is there. Truck stop loading board, TQL, Coyote logistics were a few we used to run with! But be warn you have to have good equipment, money set aside, and a hard work mentality to make it!

I got my cdl at 30. I’m 32 now and I’m an OO. As a company driver I was making 1200 a week since owning my own truck the most I’ve made in one week was $4500 and average $2000 a week. I will say that it’s super hard for us O/O right now. If I didn’t have a monthly note on my semi I’d go back to company work until this truck recession passes.

I just turned 24 last week Monday I’ve been with FedEx for 3 years now and I’m working on getting my CDL I got 2 little boys to think about and I’ve been driving straight trucks since I was 16 I know how to drive with a trailer and everything pretty familiar with air brakes so I think this is my sign to go ahead and get my cdl and hit the road plus FedEx pays for everything as well

From Late March to October 2023 I now have 20,000$ in cash saved up and I still went out and had some decent fun but at the same time was very cheap and watched my money like a hawk. At this point stressing on what to do to turn my money into more
