    Yes but this is TTR where money talks and BS walks.
    We must have a clear number.

    Personally, I'd say my best week was around $5600, $3700 to the house.
    Honestly, I'd say if you can net $400 a day, you're doing ok. $500 would be cool, but $400 would be more in the realistic ball park.
    That's my happy life

    I didn't mean to blow everyone's mind with a simple question.

    Just what number a week makes you a real O/O????

    a real owner operator?

    The answer is keeping your head above the water and making enough to pay the bills, feed the kids, keep the spouse happy, and still enjoying your job.
