    Hello all.

    I see xpo and Jb hunt and landstar offer lease on where they pay $1.05 all miles paid.

    How does that work as far as do you need your own authority?

    Also who pays the fuel?

    Help this rookie out!!

    That doesn't work, its welfare wages. Easier to sit at home and collect your check than wear out a truck for nothing in return.

    Thousands do it. Must be somewhat profitable
    Right?

    Thousands of people commit suicide every year too, doesn't mean it's a smart thing to do.

    In another post you are a broker, in this post you are asking how does lease work and in the third thread you are asking what is the good money to make per day.
    Who are you and what do you want?

    I am a broker but if you've seen my other posts I am saving up for a truck to add to my brokerage. Calm down Nancy not that serious. I never once lied about anything. During the day I do my daily work as a broker and at night I do my work to make sure I don't fail. I have never driven b4 n advice on here helps.

    There is a new one of these ####### threads posted every day. Look up the last thousand threads on working for fawk all and look and see were they all end up after they realize that they should have stayed a company driver

    If I wanted to be a company driver I'd stay a broker. I am interested in starting a company that will grow over the next 40 years and leave it to my kids. I always wanted a trucking company but start ups were expensive so I started a brokerage
