Indentured Servitude or $6,000?

I remember the name from somewhere. I also think I was reading a 'blog' he started and it ended up with someone saying he was banned from TTR for life for some reason. But I'll see if I can find it.

I read through all the 'DieselFuelOnly' full edition books on here and thought his comments offered full insight, good and bad, into Schneider. I had read decent things about them before, but after days of reading his comments, I felt confident Schneider would be a good fit for me, quite possibly until I retire.

 

I am not working right now, by choice, although I do have some income from the stock market although not today!! Actually, the last year has been rough and this is the primary reason I need to find a way to earn money. My age is classified and you know the old saying, "I could tell you but ............................"

 

I agree that the economy is looking pretty grim right now and that fact definitely concerns me. There are a few economists predicting we will enter a technical recession later this year. That is one good argument for considering driving reefer; no matter how bad the economy is people still need to eat.

 

It is something I am considering as I may be entering this industry on the front end of a recession. I've read thousands of posts on this site, many from 2007 through 2009 and it sounds like it was a pretty ugly ride for drivers.

Driving reefer may offer some job security but unlikely much more money if a recession does in fact hit. If we suffer a complete collapse of the country and everything shuts down 100%, I would hope I am hauling a load with 90% hot buffalo wings and 10% I scream. At least I would have something to eat.
