Where’s the most money in 2022?

You’re 30 years old And, “don’t got much time left“ are you terminally ill or something? I’m not trying to be a smart ###, I’m just going by what you posted. 30 years old, you have your whole life ahead of you unless you’re sick? Which I wouldn’t advise spending the short amount of time you have left in that scenario driving a truck.

Right now the biggest game in town is probably driving for Walmart if you like to be micromanaged and wear a uniform. You can make about 120 a year.

 

same question ,
“Not much time left “?

if you’re the average male , you got about 45 years left .

or is it not much time left at your current employer before they go out of business .
If they got bought out by a equity fund or hedge fund , they WILL go out of business . They got bought for the quick cash and selling off of the assets, since they likely paid a lot lot less for the company than the trucks trailers and terminals were worth, it will get cut up and sold . kind of like an auto salvage yard , the individual parts are worth a lot lot more than the whole car .

Post up your experience , driving record , how many accidents and tickets on your state issued MVR ?
What’s your roadside inspection history look like ?

and endorsements,
Doubles ?
Triples ?
Hazmat ?
Twic ?

after you post that ,
@Chinatown should be able to make some good recommendations

Wal mart and gasoline tanker is the top paying jobs right now .

 

the most money is in 2021

 

Maybe he's thinking about getting married? That can be terminal.

 

Move to a state with no state income taxes.
Walmart was mentioned and that's top paying outfit right now.
Can make more pulling cryogenic tankers and need tanker/hazmat endorsements. Texas & Nevada have those jobs and both are "No state income tax" states.
`
Line haul companies pay well and usually easy drop & hook work. Many of those drivers are $100G or more.
Estes Express
Old Dominion Freight Line
are a couple of those.
Walmart is "driver no touch" freight. Drop & hook.
~
Good states with "no state income tax" are:
South Dakota
Nevada
Texas
Florida

 

Saw this Walmart ad yesterday. Hiring drivers in Mesquite, Nevada which is 77 miles Northeast of Las Vegas.
Can get a one-bedroom apartment for $850 a month which also has swimming pool.
Entertainment in Mesquite also: MesquiteGaming.com

No state income taxes and no food taxes at the grocery store.

@peters_belt --

Note that to drive for Walmart--you'll need AT LEAST 30 months driving experience, and a clean driving record.

Also, for the first several years there--you will very likely be required to slip seat.

That's partly why......instead of driving for Walmart......I'm hauling fuel (hazmat tanker).

Most money is probably log hauling. I'm making $550-600 a day during summer and $750-900 a day during winter as an average, a few days past winter I broke $1000 a day. Home daily and 3 months off in the spring. Also a nice stress free job, little traffic to deal with, simpler log books, no scales to worry about.
