Fuel Haulers make that as company driver and go home every day. The math ain't mathing, you could've bought you as a used truck for $25,000 that you own and made way more money. 144,000 as lease driver is trash. Minimum as a owner operator is $200,000 - $300000. With low overhead and you keep all kindz of money. Don't ever lease a truck. Save up money and buy your shyt outright

      That's way over minimum wage. Even in California with their dumbass 20 a hour minimum wage, you aren't making 71k. If she's working 40 hours, she's making 34 a hour. Even if she's working 65 hours, she's still making just under 23 a hour. There's a lot of states that have minimum wage way lower than California's too. In Louisiana it's 7.25 and there's 12 or 13 other states with the same.

    After a horrendous 2022, shell-stunned financial backers have misfortunes to recover and a lot to consider, as an expansion report and a pile of different information did close to nothing to change assumptions that the Central bank would probably keep climbing intrest rates regardless of whether the economy dials back, And that implies more red ink for portfolios for the principal quarter of year 2023. How might I benefit from the ongoing unstable market, I'm currently at a junction choosing if to exchange my $250k security/stock portfolio.

    She won't get taxed on $144,000 or $71,000. She'll probably only get taxed on $30,000 or $40,000 because of other tax write offs she's eligible for as a business owner (people that get W-2s pay the highest taxes).

    if you get a bad truck like i did, i made $145,000 and took home $29,000 , over $100,000 went into my truck for repairs . i made less than a buger king worker having my own truck

    I’m a W-2 worker that makes $106,000 … but my company also put in $2,500 a month into my pension. Pay $2,400 a month for a family health insurance premium (I pay 15% company pay 85%). I get 15 days paid of for a value of $50 an hr X 120 hrs = $6,000.
    So I actually make $170,800.

    Lol that's not enough for the bs we put up with I quickly learned when I started trucking that I needed 250k plus per year for it to even make sense I'm not even happy unless I push 350 you can literally make 80-100k a year working normal jobs if you are not dumb
