Looking into the Trucking scene, few questions?

If it were me, and you have the cash, pay the vig for the private school and don't look back. I bet you can get a steep discount paying cash.

 

I went to community college in 2004 and paid $600 for an 8 week course. I then got a job with Ashley Distribution, who has a terminal in Arcadia Wisconsin, and started out at 64k a year, and they re-imbursed my tuition. There are good companies that hire students, they just don’t necessarily readily advertise it.

 

You should be heading up or down to the oil fields...

Get your CDL and you are looking at maybe 6 figures to start. Just saying.

Alaska may be even more.

 

Talk to Millis, I see your in WI.They are a training company and a good option to get your cdl.
From what I've read students get 42cpm (all miles) while your in the truck and being trained
I think theres a $500. up front cost, But the rest($2000.) can be paid off weekly

 

Good, so your aware of the profitability of schools.

Take that thought to trucking and multiply!

 

Stop relying on the lying recruiter. All they want is spaced out fresh meat starving to make a dollar.

Talk to drivers at the truckstop. Buy them some coffee or something, they will tell you what's what.

 

Spot on, a $5000 - $7000 tuition, and in a literally a few years, with some initial up front investment for a truck, 6 figures is easy and very sustainable. Look at these kids coming out of college or universities, $40,000 to $100,000 + in debt and the best they can do is McDonalds or or a dead end $30,000 a year job with the government. Unless they are in say engineering, but even then they are looking at all of that student debt. If you have a mortgage right out of college, and do land a job paying $80,000 a year, really what have you accomplished?
