Which Company Should I go With? Willing to relocate

So... I am a 54 year old twice divorced man that has less than $500 in the bank and no future. Trucking seems to interest me. There are about ten companies out there that provide free CDL-A training. Of those ten US Express, CRST, CR England, PAM and Roehl have all said yes to me starting at their schools. Because of my bad driving history and 5 years of unverifiable employment nobody else would touch me. As for what part of this beautiful country would I want to work in? AZ, TX, KY, TN, NC, SC, FL or GA would be great. Based on this, Which company should I go with? Which company treats its drivers the best? Which company am I going to get taught correctly? And of course, Which company am I going to make the most money? Thank you in advance for all your help.

 

"How much they pay?" From what I have heard, the highest pay doesn't mean most pay.

 

The bad record I'm referring to is that my license was suspended 3 times over the last 3 years for non payment of child support. Other than that I have no moving violations in the last 10 years, never a DUI and never arrested for anything.

 

I'm in NJ but I want out and would consider AZ, TX, KY, TN, NC, SC, FL or GA. Maybe be a NOMAD the first year until I find the right fit.
