No. Initially he was a contractor. Then he began buying properties and he got to the point that he actually had to choose between Contracting and handling his properties full-time.
He had a small crew of guys that would work with him and work over the new properties that he bought.
I know that there are some members here on the Forum that are taking the money they make in trucking and they are investing in real estate. It is something that I'm interested in also.

Are you hiring adults or children? The only "health perk" a grown man would be interested in is good health insurance for him and his family. Anything else is hand holding. Grown men don't want or need their hand held.TripleSix and AthenaTrans Thank this. -

If you knew how NICE they ride, how much POWER, primarily torque, something like 1850 at 1350 RPM before hitting 515 on high horse at 1600 RPM it's easy to get a 40 ton load to 70 in a little over a minute. The TECHNOLOGY inside of them things makes it almost a sentinet being, almost alive. And the sleeping accomodations. Set the engine idle at 1200 and that thing becomes a purring Z generator drift you rigtht to sleep with perfect heat or air conditioning, way superior to a car or SUV. Or even a home even in -40 winter storm or in death valley at 120+ You can get just about anything you have at home off a good big 120 volt inverter.
And the money. Sometimes ir rains manna from heaven. I know 1000 aint much. But when you make that three times in a week running off a round trip from LA to NJ and back to LA again (Los Angeles to New Jersey and return) in a week round trip.) and keep that up for months. You will have so much money in the bank they give you calls asking how you got so much for Federal money purposes in reporting.
You get to go places in the USA that has been made by God in so many ways beautiful. The common stiff working in a office cubicle for wages trapped in a dreary life will never understand the joy that sweeps your soul inside at seeing such beauty in the Land. And the People. I call them Beautiful when they say park that truck right here. I fix you dinner tonight. No strings or obligations. Set right here and get ready to eat. Never mind tonight. -
Lose the partner crap, you treat a driver as a driver. You give them the freedoms to make decisions to make money.
It takes a long long time to find the right people, and you can not do this with one or two trucks if you expect it to run on its own.
I am wondering how many who are posting here are actual fleet owners with more than two trucks?roshea, spyder7723 and Justrucking2 Thank this. -
