    Self or wife. It can take a few years to get established with good freight but when you do it's the only way to go. If you don't start you won't ever get there.
    To put it another way:
    "Any time spent not working toward your ultimate goal is a waste of time"....OR..."Set thy purse to fattening."

    While for some it probably is the best way to go.. for others they may need someone else loading and pushing them... So you will have to take an honest look at yourself...

    Self dispatch. You have to manage your time efficiently. It does take some time to find and process paperwork for those loads. I look for the loads and have help doing the logistics.
