    Even if the son fails, he can still marry into the family's wealth. They are from oil country after all.

    Lol. I kinda like that. I will ensure my daughter marries the bad biker dude that somehow always has money and runs a nice sized crew.

    Actualy kicking them out at 18 when the parents are doing well for themselfs puts them at a disadvantaged. Poor familys can get scolarships easier and qualify for many programs like pell grant.. But not this kid... He was forced into a life of fast food and only way oit of that was trucking... Not much of a step up and easly ruined by one bad day. setting him back into the life of minimum wage with no skills... Glad his father is proud...

    But that’s way different then buying you a house, car, and new truck and trailer to get started. A helping hand is much different then a hand out.

    lol not for everyone. I started trucking to make money and start a business. I don’t do this for fun, I do it to get ahead financially. I think the OP is going to do very well for himself.
     
    cleanbyrd and SL3406 Thank this.

    For some reason, I am not sure why, but this seems to sound like some pulp novel.
