Male truck driver. I love seeing women out there earning a living, no matter what job. Competent female truck drivers quickly earn their co-workers respect, and (from what I've witnessed) are treated very well by the men. Sort of a work sister. This family is earning their living, sticking together. Nothing but respect. Be careful though, truckers are the first to feel a recession.

Nice video. Keep it up.Trucking is a great occupation which yields a lot of money but not everyone is lucky speaking from the other side if you understand, I was into trucking about 6 years ago and as at then I worked for FedEx before I went on driving trucks for companies which I was taken advantage of until I became so fed up and made up my mind of being an entrepreneur of my own which I made proper research on and had to hire and highly skilled and licensed grant writer and editor to help me through my application on government grants and I was awarded $500k as a startup capital and today I can proudly bold of owning my own truck company in which I make over 37k a month as my profit and now I'm in the process of starting up a daycare business for my wife and a salon for my sister. So therefore determination is a key to good living and erasing the mentality of being and underdog too helps a lot, knowing your worth also, I know not everyone is determined to be successful in life but my advice is for you to not be among the Unsuccessful ones.

Your advice on taking control of your own destiny and becoming an entrepreneur resonates deeply with me. It's empowering to see how determination and hard work can lead to remarkable outcomes. I admire your dedication to research and seeking government grants as a startup capital. It's a great reminder that exploring different avenues for funding can make all the difference in starting a successful business. Your success not only in the trucking industry but also in branching out to other ventures like a daycare business and salon is truly remarkable. It's a testament to your entrepreneurial spirit and the endless possibilities that come with it. Your advice to not settle for being an underdog and to know one's worth is invaluable.

I always joke that I've driven more miles than any nonprofessional. Never driven for money but had a very long commute for years and also toggled between two residences. I have so much respect for the truck drivers. They're driving that huge beast and they do so with such care and restraint. They're so critical to our society, yet get so little respect. I can also imagine the psychological struggles of long haul trucking and time away from family. If a woman can do it and thrive, God bless her. She's got my respect.

The trucking industry held me for 4 months. I figured out quick that it's not worth working in an industry in need of such massive reform. "Debt peonage" couldn't be more accurate. "Indentured servitude" would be a good term for it as well. You would not believe how many of these companies try to get brand new drivers to lease trucks just to be indebted to the company. It's a predatory system that robs the workers of their livelihoods. Many of these people have little to no education and don't see it coming until they're underwater and out of options and that’s why I had to make research about governmental grants and hired a licensed professional grant writer who helped me in securing a grant and I could start up a business for myself.

People/companies at the top more interested in lining their pockets without concern for the companies that deliver the product. It is not capitalistism but " cronyism " brought to us by socialism. All the drivers are independent business contractors and could use guidance on operating a business, what we don't need is unions. Thuggery didn't work previously and as a result unions declined to just government employees.

Yep, I'm getting out. I'm a retired Firefighter/Paramedic and went into trucking to supplement my meager pension. work 60-70 hours a week, but only get paid when my wheels are turning. Waiting to be unloaded, loaded, traffic, getting fuel, breakdowns, no pay. So my pay average is approximately $16 an hour for driving a near 80,000 (most of the time) vehicle in the dark and through all weather. I've told my firefighter buddies something they found hard to believe, that truck driving is WAY more dangerous. Hard to believe, but it's true. So I now have my full year of tractor/trailer experience and 120,000 safe miles, which would enable me to go look for more money, but the money is just not there. I'm tired of working 60-70 hours a week. So I'm going to work as a Paramedic at a local hospital which pays hourly and OVERTIME after 40 hours and I'll be off the road before I get killed. if you asked someone if they'd like a job where you work 70 hours a week, but only get paid for about 40, oh, and that it's very dangerous and you'd be around rude and incompetent people all day (drivers on the road) no one would want the job.

It’s takes a trucker to understand a trucker. What we do is so important, and what she says is true. We are under appreciated. During 2020, I ran the country and the trailer WAS my cape. I’ll never forget that year, everyone was locked up in their house and me and my fellow brothers and sisters were gunning it down the interstates. This isn’t for everyone, but a true trucker will always fight to keep their seat in the game and wheels moving. This isn’t the light hearted.

Your absolutely right I probably could make more. But I’m home home a lot and I have other streams of income from another business that I do. I’m not one of those drivers that lie about making 250 to 300 thousands off one truck. Trucking is apart of my life, not my life. #itstruckerslifebaby

Bless him and you for being the hard working family that you are and bless you for loving what you do so much. I was reading many comment on here from female truck drivers that you encouraged. That in itself is so wonderful. Women are great drivers and there is no reason why a woman cannot drive a big rig. May your life be filled with good fortune and many blessings.

I came across your channel two months ago after I have applied for SBA loan multiple times myself to get a new truck and start my business but my application was denied. I decided to follow your Instructions by paying and hiring a Financial Loan/ Grant Agent that help me look out for the best Trucing Business Grant program that suite my business and credit score. I'm very happy to inform you that after Four weeks of application process with the loan agent you recommended my business has finally been approved for $287,000 Business Grant. I will be able to get a 40ft trailer and all my business equipments by January and my business will start it's operation fully. Thank you so much and Happy New Year to Everyone seen this today.

Hey Clement, I have a small business that I have been working on for 10 years. It is now just starting to take off. I am cash flowing but either a large grant or low interest loan would help me expand much faster. I work in the rural market. I help process the spent grains from distilleries and turn them into human food. I don't have any experience going for grants. I was wondering what the best place to look for a loan or grant in this market. Would the food supply chain guarantee loan be the best?
