Company to o/o. Where do I begin?

I don’t think things are that bad.

 

Keep saving right now, market is in a downward trend and if it keeps up there’s going to be some really good deals on equipment out there later this year/next

take that time to search this forum and read up on people’s views of doing things in the business

 

I am not going to argue or disagree with all those who said right now is a bad time.
What I am going to say is since the 80's. I have never heard people say "right now" is a good time.
When things were good. It was dont get in now cause things are getting ready to crash. If you havent been thru a bad time you will never survive.
When things were bad lke now. Its don't get in now. Everything is #### wait till it gets better.
When things were ok (not terrible and not awesome) It was dont start now, wait a while and see what way its going to go.
So Imho its all up to the individual.
How they run there business.
How they manage thier money.
Ive seen two drivers start on same day in same position..
2 years later 1 failed and is bad mouthing any and everything about being a owner op or lp driver.
The other is loving life, and moving into new house he just had built.

 

The following Forum thread is a good example of what life is/can be like as an owner-op (if you know what you're doing)....be sure to read post #484 (on page 49 of the thread):
