    Semi trucks can SINK you with 1 single repair. It ought not be on those list. Insurance is exuberant. Regulations are crazy politicized and change constantly. Diesel is also more expensive due to politics. (Typed as I look at the semi aka "white elephant" in our yard, as the husband took another job to pay for it.

    I watched several YouTube videos on how to trade in the stock market but haven't made any head start because they are either talking some gibberish or sharing their story of how they made it and I do not want to make mistakes by taking risks in my own hands.

    The Trucking business is the complete opposite to this, very high running costs very high chance of expensive things going wrong with very low profit!

    So the moral of the story is employ the least amount of people possible. The growth plan must have that also at the top of the list.

    You 100% do not need business or finance to advance humanity or technology. This is well known and well proven. I dont mean free in a financial way, i mean free to live, do not need finance for that, everything on the planet exists without finance, human the only one trapped by this finance crap

    The new currency will be assisting others to raise the conciousness.

    We were born for free, and will die for free. Why not live for free, because of finance we are at leaat 100yrs behind in technology. We can have it all and more for free, its crazy we choose the grind intead of just being.

    Anyways if one does the looking one will see how possible it is. We must all (100%) quality of life, this finance crap is designed for some to have quality. Yeh you may nut it all out and be wealthy, then what? We see millionaires unhappy but we continue to grind for what they have.

    This insanity must end asap, we dont need finance to be healthy happy and wealthy. The new currency must be to assist others to raise conciousness.

    Please i say this with respect to all, i say it for all our benefit!! Regards

    real estate has always been my thing, I'm a loan officer – I do like every thing Cody mentioned. Every person is different, every company is different, other people have excellent results and others don't. My mother had a landrymat in the city of San Franciso and did well for 10 years and the place was always clean and immaculant she enjoyed it and made money. She also had a small vintage clothing store, she always made money. I would like to do something with online businesses in real estate financing, purchasing commercial property, fix and flip and groud up (construction) Property management can be tied into this. I had a mortgage company 10 years before the mortgage meltdown, I would prefer an online presence for marketing etc.and investing for myself and clients.

    During COVID, the trucking industry went from 300% failure rate, to 600%. Banks will rarely invest in trucking and logistics businesses, because they're failing constantly, and leave enormous, unrecoverable debt when they do.

    all was good until started talking about trucking i stopped this video . as an owner in trucking since 2015 till 2023 . trucking is done for small owners because . insurance $1700 + truck payment $3000 trailer payment $800 . registration plates $1600 permits $70 load board app $50 and much more . fuel $5 per gallon and trucks run 6mile per gallon and at the end everything now controlled by big boys so you get only trash from load board . loads paying less than $1.75 per mile . so your truck runs $1 per mile how you going to make the payments . in 2017 we used to get $4 $5 per mile not anymore its over . anyway dont listen to trucking advice not a good idea at all . i sold everything and im out of it

    This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my YouTube channel 7 months ago about self development. Now I have 729 subs and > 200 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I could haven’t learned without getting started in the 1st place.
