    I currently left a 1099 company after 5 years for the normal reasons (Please no comments on how stupid I am)
    Long story short I own my truck free and clear. I do not have the financial means to get my own authority or run my own business. So I am wondering what option are out there

    or interested in hearing what steps others have taken i.e. park the truck and take a company job.

    Maybe set your truck up accordingly and offer your services as a mobile home repossessor

    That seems like a very dangerous job. Most trailer owners have more then a few firearms

    It was more the company then anything else. just the basic story. everything was a secret, rates and such. no real settlements just a scrap of paper with gross so you could never tell what you got paid per load.
