Being an Owner Operator vs. City Unionized Driver

exactly!!! Freedom Is priceless!!!

 

Better yet, freedom is worth whatever it costs ya.

I worked ten years at a very well known american manufacturer. It was pretty easy, paid good, full bennies, 401k, profit sharing. but was a miserable culture. It CREATED new problems in your life. Lots of guys died working there because "oh its just too good to leave." Lots spent 40yrs then retired as sick old men.. Then youd see them a year later looking 20 yrs younger and happy for the first time. I was actually homeless for a little while shortly after that job and still never missed one minute. Not one. My dad did 40yrs, doesnt miss it. My brother is still trapped there and hates his life. This big house and new cars that keep him trapped are NOT enough to offset the misery.

Nothing is worth hating your life. You can change your money picture. But not your time picture.
