    Sure... Paid to not grow crops = CRP Program... This program pays a couple hundred dollars per acre to do nothing with the land... Do you think a couple hundred dollars is more than what an acre of land can grow in produce or even cattle feed?


    The only guaranteed prices I ever saw were contracted prices that usually ended up being under open market value.

    I do some things at home occasionally for neighbors or the city or county. Not for money, but we all need something occasionally and we all get it done.

    Many drivers do 'day trading' in the stock market and make lots of money.
    You can do this from the truck on a laptop computer.
    I used to do it and now my wife does it. I don't want to do it anymore because she's so good at it.
    Last week on Monday she made $11G and Wednesday she made $7G.

    Plenty of decent books and videos on that. Maybe some other drivers on here will post how they're doing.

    Many truckers do make $100K and more a year. Some are company drivers and some are owner-operators.
    Get a couple years experience and you can to.

    If I end up making $100k a year, my dreams will come true. Making $100k while moving around, I can't ask for anything better.

    You can make that. Keep a clean record with Wilson as starters.

    There's some real good jobs in Missoula, after Wilson. Wilson is a good outfit to get started, decent pay, can live in the truck, etc.
