    You're thinking of coal mining companies, particularly in WV.

    I make more than you. A lot more. I'm in a lease with no option to purchase. A straight up rental. The lease/rental is 1 year long. I stay on the road 3 to 4 weeks and go home 7 to 10 days. At the end of my lease/rental I take 6 weeks off, collect a $4000 bonus the day I turn in my truck then I come back and sign another lease/rental.

    I have no interest in being a "true OO". I can walk away whenever I want with no penalties. I don't have to worry about selling the truck to pay the loan if I want to come off the road.

    My best and only asset, besides securement equipment, is me. My skills, my knowledge, my work ethic.

    I'm sick of hearing the anti lease people say everyone fails. No. Everyone does not fail. The majority fail. The majority fail at life.

    I'm not an OO. I don't care. I have seen too many of you being drowned by your "asset" when it becomes a boat anchor.

    I'm not an otr company driver. I don't need to ask my company for permission to go home for the 1 day per week I earn on the road.

    when 98 out of 100 fail
    we should make sure the general masses know 2 made it or at least one did and the other is too full of himself to admit failure

    62 leases started on the week you started.
    75 failed in 8 weeks.
    So out of 496 leases in 8 weeks 75 failed.
    That's about a 15% failure rate.
    In your earlier post you presented a kill rate of 98%.

    So.... Like I said 98 out of 100 according to the statistics you made up?

    i never said 62 start every week
    comprehension is minimal in chickens i guess
    you know most leases fail
    if your happy fine but to give people the idea most can is not right
    someone wins in Vegas every week too

    going back to the op post
    bad credit no money lease
    recipe for disaster
    bad credit already equals can't run a household let alone a business

    So in order for your numbers to work you're saying 62 started with you, but only 14 others started over the next 7 weeks?

    And my comprehension is what's being called into question? Right......

    Cool story bro.
