Afternoon Tyler! It's so cool that you lay it out step by step how to succeed in a trucking/financial freedom career! If you fail to plan you plan to fail! I know you have been busy, it's great to hear from you! Thank you for taking your time to educate the new drivers! Roll safe out there and hope to see you soon!
I got my CDL and am working as a company driver which is good because I am local (shorthaul). My goal is to save money, pay off debt and get experience. Long term I would like to earn more money. I think I will need to get my Tanker, doubles, Hazmat & TWIC card. I think my hesitation to doing OTR is knowing how to run and make money without owing anybody .
I would say over 90% of people in trucking had no ambition or smart to invest in future and take chances on investment. Mot wouldn't even earn over $100,000/year.
My plan is to save money and keep investing in MF, Goldetf, etc.. for next 10-12 years, Then take all that saving and buy a commercial real estate for rental income.
A little off topic,but how do you stay in shape while trucking ? And by the way I start with Crete the 25th, They are starting me with 60 cpm, does that sound about right?
I try and work out 3-4 times a week. A combination of going to the gym and doing body weight exercises and running outside. I also intermittent fast, and do a no heavy carb diet. I don’t eat things like bread, rice, pasta or any refined sugar. I only drink black coffee and water. And that’s great you’re coming to Crete and yes 60 cpm is a really good place to start!
