best option for CDL-B in NYC

No pressure, huh?
If trucking is your career of last resort, you won't last long.
It ain't like picking up cans along the road...

There's always another job somewhere doing something.
A thousand other jobs out there...
Go back to school.

 

i'm not being sarcastic at all.
If you're too old to go back to school, you're probably definitely too old to get married. Think about that.
When you start trucking, you'll be getting about $10 bucks an hour, but you'll be working 60 or 70 hours per week, so you won't have to worry about being home very much. Imagine working two ten-dollar per hour jobs all of our waking hours and there you have local trucking.
This is the reality of the trucking industry. If you want more pay, you need to go into the market and get education and skills that are worth more than ten bucks an hour then market yourself appropriately.
Until you value yourself at more than ten bucks an hour, nobody else will either.
Just going trucking isn't going to give you the magical keys to earning $70K per year.
Just a heads up, realistic.

Good luck.
