Truck driving is not "BIG MONEY"

If you've got brothers with great incomes, perhaps you should look into majoring in the subject that they did. Knowing people in the right positions is like 95% of the battle. I went to a good college and got a STEM degree. I was getting offers of $28K to $32K per year. What a joke to pay rent, food, student loans, etc. with that. If I knew people in high places, I probably could have gotten like $50K starting out.

 

I saw one with that format where they were asking: "It says here you don't have any experience, so why are you asking for such a high starting pay?" And he replies: "Because the job is much harder when you don't know what you're doing!"

 

I don't think I even hit 12k my first year of trucking. But I didn't start till September.

 

Congratulations to you and your brother.

 

You’re probably not going to find a “low cost” area in California.

A buddy of my just sold his house in Victorville, ca. A single family home in a neighborhood that needed some major updating/repairs for 260k.

In Missouri I bought a 12 year old home (That needed nothing) on 4.5 acres with a 2800 square foot shop for 265k.

 

LOL!

 

I worked 10 months last year and made over $42K and live in Tennessee. Good money for here.

 

You could get one hell of a super sized bad ### SOLAR SYSTEM for 200 grand. Apparently, your friend isn't too bright. 15K for a well is a decent price though.
