    Thousands of drivers just like you.
    You're only one DOT physical away from being unemployed.
    Buy a one or two bedroom condo in an upper middle class neighborhood and get it paid off as soon as possible. By doing this, you will always have a home that yours if the day comes you fail the DOT physical.
    All you will need financially when, and if, that day comes, is some flunky job that pays enough for the fixed costs of the condo ownership.
    Buy the condo, lock the door, hit the road and stay as long as you want, but still have the assurance and peace of mind, knowing you always have a place to go if something happens.

    I think this goes beyond the limits of what TTR can do.

    Right where you are at, don't have to think, no responsibilities and can save for an early retirement and become a all star gamer or Texas hold 'em ace making millions.

    I remember when I spent some of my early years OTR with no bills at all to speak of except the phone card and the Tax person.

    God did I live badly partaking in some of the .. offerings in our wonderful Nation...

    Look, I’m not asking for a life coach here.

    I hear this all the time on this forum that if they didn’t have any attachments, they could make more money.

    So what are those ways? I have my own reasons for wanting this (like maybe I don’t want to do this forever and want to be as efficient with my time on the road as much as possible)

    What is the best way to maximize my income?
     
    NavigatorWife Thanks this.

    The pay rate you posted is better than average. If you're getting decent miles, to go along with that pay rate, and living in the truck with no home costs, your next move may not be forward. Seems like you got it pretty good already.

    If you enjoy what you are doing, you have a life. With no attachments, you should be able to "bank" quite a sum each month. With proper investing you should be able to set yourself up with a larger than average "retirement nest egg" and retire early. Then you can decide if you want to travel the world or blow it all in Vegas.
    You are not anti-social, you just don't like anyone.
