Me on the other hand makes between 800-1000 per week take home and I go home every 3-4 weeks. Of course on the weeks I go home I dont make that much, but I also dont have a lease payment hanging over my head.
Read IP's thread on leasing, take it to heart. Its tough out here and the ecomony is starting to take a slight turn down. -
The real deal you want to shoot for is having enough cash reserve to deal with income variations like that just described. If your personal weekly/monthly debt has you running from settlement check to settlement check without being able to lay money aside - and this is true whether you are a company driver or a lease operator - you will be in financial trouble eventually. There is a yearly cycle to the level of freight available, and it will catch up with us at various points in the year. Planning for it with cash set aside allows you to move through the lulls and take home time with a minimum of personal disruption. Spend all your jack as soon as it comes in, and you'll eventually be hurting.techman Thanks this. -
