    Big question @old iron is what does your wife want for doing all of that paperwork?

    I have 8-10 local businesses/friends I deal with. Tool trucks, mechanics, drivers, etc. Every single one of them when I asked for book work advice? "I dunno the wife does it".
    I hired a book keeper two weeks ago and loving it so far.

    We have a similar situation @old iron. He pays for the plates, gets his IFTA so I just key it in and pays what the insurance went up when his truck was added. On the good side he finds his own loads etc but the checks come to me cause of insurance and numbers. I get him for a flat 8% and call it a day lol.

    Only difference is he is my son who is aspirations of being the biggest outlaw around with my numbers on his door LMAO

    Gave up on that idea long ago. :help:
    I get the fun of doing everything on this railroad. Wisconsin is a marital state where the better half has to sign the dotted line on every loan/ balance sheet right after yours. It can take alot of bribery just for that. And I ain't a very good forger.

    Hahahaha that's awesome! He's got some big outlaw shoes to fill tho. You and @old iron should team up and start a superlimitedliability company (SLLC) just for outlaws, aspiring or otherwise, and in the spirit of outlaws just paint random numbers on their doors.
