    Food for thought...
    $17,979.00 per year is a big chunk of change.
    That was from 2 years ago and I'm sure it's even more now.

    I've got two kids. I always factor insurance into the equation. 75k yearly minus healthcare costs for a family is much less, especially after taxes.

    And that's with no benefits. A garbage truck driver makes more when you factor retirement, Healthcare, etc

    2800 miles a week to get 198k a year sounds like a 1.41 a mile based off min 50 weeks .. hardly sounds lucrative to me

    $0.50 a mile Plus benefits eats up more than half of that $1.41 probably. That doesn't leave enough for the truck or the owner of the truck.
