    Since you are so wealthy, I sign the contracts on my truck next week, you should invest in my future...I'd say a cool million would do wonders for my upstart...

    I'm not calling you a liar, but, most people that really make/have that kind of money don't feel the need to tell everyone about it, especially on the interwebs...

    Put the crack pipe down now. Big companies work on less than 3 cents a mile profit

    To answer the question, companies usually only get around 2.50 per mile. The mega companies screw each other just like the little guys do.

    Wow this has to be the quickest ban ever! 1 hour and 1 post. Good job mods. It was entertaining but lacked ANY truth..I wonder if he really sat and typed that in one session, or does he have it saved on his desktop ready for the next forum?

    exactly even if someone has that kind of money there is no need to brag

    Heck I dont even like to brag to others about what I make these days, sometimes when going to terminals for a service and I show up with my dedicated trailer I get drivers asking me about my pay and stuff, only thing I tell them is that I do ok.

    You would think someone with his background and high income level would at least have high school grammar and spelling skills.
