lol. 🤣 You have a point there. I do love donuts. Appreciate your support 🙏👍🏻

Jajajaja that’s true

Thank you Ken!!!

Thank you!!!

Thank you Gus!!!

Some trailers come with clams welded on the side of the ramps. I’m not sure why mine didn’t. I’m not too worried about it since I don’t open them very often. Thanks for the advice though 👍🏻

Liked your videos friend very informative. I'm a new follower. I would like to do what you do later on.

@@Castigo423 Thank you! I appreciate the positive feedback and appreciate you supporting my channel 🙂👍🏻

Thank you! Have to enjoy the cheat days 🙂

Peter, thank you! Yes it is hard to stay in shape with this job but it’s all about self control. If you want yo stay for, you’ll follow a good diet and workout. Anyone who makes excuses is just being lazy. 👍🏻 a donuts are awesome 😁 My weekend cheat meal.

Thank you!🙂

Fortunately the past two weeks have been in my favor but this is not always the situation. Hope it keeps moving in this direction. He is doing a good job with the loads. 👍🏻

@@Mr.AlexKogan oh I know I went through 3 dispatchers that werent great before i said screw it and went back to the medical field

@@angelasanford4505 medical is always a good choice. It’s always needed.

Thank you! Trying to do the best I can. Sometimes this market makes it tough though. Especially right now.

@@Mr.AlexKogan it's geastbor famine. I live in a city that was hit with several hail storms and currently doing 70-100K a week gorss with 50% margins

@@allaboutroofing2 I want to do what your doing then. lol.

Yeah. I like Mexican pastries. I’ve never had a reset in Nebraska but I’ll google the place and if it looks good I’ll put it on my list of places to visit. Thanks for the suggestion!

No problem man. Your vids are cool just subscribed.

@@AdrianRod526 Thank you! Appreciate the support.

Hey! Thank you!🙏 When Ibho to the gym O leave the trailer at the truck stop. I put a lock on it and usually take the landing gear handle off too. If I’m stuck without a load I either go to the gym if one is near by or just hang out at the truck stop, watch KZfaq and so on. I hope to not have to make that video because being stuck sucks. lol. But I will try to in one of the next videos.

Ha! No I haven’t been told that yet. Thank you. Happy you enjoyed the video 👍🏻

Thank you! Happy to hear you are enjoying the videos. I cant really give that advice as to whether this is a good time to start because market is at its worst right now. You’ll still make money but you’ll be on the road longer doing that because you’ll have some downtime where you sit without a load.

It seems like everywhere you go these days, there’s an option for a tip. It is crazy. The nice lady was patient with me while I couldn’t make up my mind on the donuts and she was very helpful so she earned it 😁

If you try to be home on the weekends you’ll never make any money on this job. You’d have to find something local but going across country it’s practically impossible to be home on the weekends. I used to do a two to three week on the road and one week home schedule but now I’m on the road for two months at a time. Business is at its worst right now so have to be out longer.

@@Mr.AlexKoganthat’s fair, I was just curious. I’m starting up in January for the first time and I’m always watching your videos. Thanks for the encouragement! Now this may be a private question but about how long does it take to receive payment for each load after it’s delivered? I’ve heard people say it could take days

@@ethanknoth8715 Thank you for supporting my channel. I recommend using a factoring company. Most charge a 2.5% fee. With mine if I submit a signed BOL before noon, the money is in my account the next morning. If you submit after noon then you’ll be paid after one day. If you don’t use a factoring company, most pay after 30 days.

Jeffrey, thank you! I am staying as safe as I can. Yes I meal prep and I use a 12 volt fridge which can also work off 110v. I got it on Amazon. It can be a fridge or a freezer. Here’s a link to it. It’s been good for me for the past 2 years.

Appreciate the honesty 👍🏻 it’s always exciting to see what donut places I’ll visit next.

Harley, Thank you! I hope business keeps going in this direction. For the boxes from the donuts, I’d have way too many of them, my truck would be overfilled by the time ai get home. lol. I was born in Belarus but lived in America most of my life but I guess the accent may still show up sometimes because I do speak Russian everyday.

Thank you for watching my videos. When you say insight on maintenance, you want videos or just to know what’s needed and how much it costs? When the time comes for replacements, I’ll definitely keep everyone in the loop 👍🏻

I use a company but prefer not to put the info out in the open. If you google dispatch companies I think you can find one that you will like.

Thanks bro. Appreciate the support. Even if the trailer is loaded I still unhook it at the truck stop and go work out.

@@Mr.AlexKogan is it safe to leave your trailer with the cargo in a truck stop?

@@osmanalvarado6940 in 3 years I haven’t had any issues. I put a lock on my trailer.

They were delicious 😜

Hey what’s up! Since I use a dispatcher I don’t know about all load boards but the one I have is Truckstop. It’s the most popular but it’s not cheap. It’s $150 a month but worth it.

@Mr.AlexKogan thank you so much brother 🙏 I really appreciate it.

I might do that in one of the videos when I hit 4 weeks work. My months don’t always start in the beginning

My trailer isn’t the best to put cars on it. It’s kinda high and low profile cars will never make it up my ramps. I can put trucks on it though or any vehicle that’s got good ground clearance. My dispatcher does look for cars to pick up when there is really nothing.

Haha. That’s a good one with the Canadian. I wish some donut place would sponsor me with a lifetime of donuts. lol. I twist the straps so they don’t flap from the wind. Ever see someone driving a container and they straps are flapping on the side of the container? That’s because they don’t twist them. Kinda hard to explain by message.

@@Mr.AlexKogan I think everybody that subscribed to you should reach out to the donut companies and get you sponsored lol. And yes, I totally see that with the straps on the sides of the containers flapping like it's a sail. So I get why you twist it now.

@@lowlightguy6606 totally agree with everything you said 👍🏻

I personally use a dispatch service. I just signed up for a load board recently, want to see what it’s like to get loads myself.

Thanks for answer, I justo watched the video, you said that...about distpach. By the way delicious Donuts! Can you share your distpach information?

@@someof...8737 donuts were definitely delicious 😁 can you message me on Instagram?

I’d like to keep that private. Hope you understand.

Well I'm looking for a good dispatcher if there looking for another driver let them know or I. Thanks for keeping real..

CDL

Yeah you can bring her along. I’m not sure if it’ll be fun for her though. 👍🏻

lol. I don’t go to the gym every day. I do it on my resets or if I have a day without a load. I have a video of my truck showing the sleeper in the back. I like to take care of my self, my truck and my trailer. No reason to look like a slob. Now let’s do math because your calculator doesn’t seem to work properly. Lol. This week was $6200 and last week was 8900. Let’s say the next two weeks are 6000 each. That’s $27,100. My truck, trailer and insurance payment are $3600. Dispatch fee for this would be $1897 at 7%. Fuel roughly $6000. That leaves me at $15,600. Also take away 2.5% factoring from 27,100 that’s $677. So that leaves me at $14,900 for the month. What isn’t adding up when you did the math? 😃👍🏻 I don’t make up stories. No reason to.

​@@Mr.AlexKogan Anyone can say numbers and miles. Actual BOLs or it didn't happen, JS. Seems like you have time to sit, workout and go to the gym, but to have profitable weeks, it's def a grind with these brokers trying to take the lion share of all the loads.

@@connorsdad1126 not a problem. I’ll make a video specifically for you and show the rate confirmations for one of those weeks. I’m mot sure why you have a hard time believing. Any other KZfaq driver would just ignore your comment but I will show you. Be on a look out for that video.

Thank you! I honestly don’t see how you can confuse gross with net. Obviously you have to subtract your expenses. No one will show you net because everyone’s expenses are different but having an idea of what the gross is, you can work off that to figure out what you can take home as net. 🤷‍♂️

Well everyone’s gross is different too but you make that your caption so why not caption your net? Guarantee majority will come to a conclusion that it might not be worth getting into…just caption the truth only 30% of gross profits is actually your money to spend IIIFFF there are no maintenance issues that week just saying bro be better then these other hotshot youtube guys

@@NHZ_x4 I understand your point of view but my net might not be the same as someone else’s net because everyone spends different on a truck, trailer and insurance payment plus one might purchase diesel at a different price than I do so it’s not fair to put my net because that’s actually misleading in my opinion but when I put gross, most people who want to run their own business should know what that word means and you can work off that to subtract your expenses.
