So now I get to decide what I want to spend the $12k I still have in my savings. Most likely gonna just keep it un there tho just in case the new rig takes a crap. Tracer on the other hand has himself so far under, he want able to save any $ and sometimes doesn't even get a check. I know he struggles to buy fuel too, but if this deal makes him money and starts him on a up swing then I say good for him. It honestly can't get any worse. At least he is trying to get it all taken care of to get him out of the hole he's dug. |

No, you don't, basically you can't afford the car and the apartment, thats because you are not paying yourself, read ANYTHING on small buisness and it says ALWAYS pay yourself. You can't pay yourself because you make bad decisions, you would be better off in a company ride, probably make more too |
Hey Tracer. You're an inspiration to guys like me. Thank you!

Only thing i think he needs to do is keep with 1 type of trailer and stay with it. Seems like everytime you see a couple loads bring in a couple more dollars your ready to up and sell your trailer. If you buy a high flat then stick with it for a couple years.
Your losing your ass money wise. Buying and selling all the time. |

It seems to me that you are really upside down on your equipment, Tracer. If I were you, I would sit down and decide what I really want to do. You have a good trailer that is working for you. Every time you trade you are losing money. And contrary to what you may believe, just because a trailer is used doesn't necessarily mean that it is "junk." There are some good buys on used equipment around. You can save a lot of money buying used. And you will get more of your money back should things not work out for you and you decide to sell it.
There are better ways to pay less taxes than buying equipment. I have had friends who would try to justify buying a new piece of equipment because of taxes. You could either find some investments which would grow and save taxes or you could take some time off and enjoy life rather than work to make payments. You haven't really had your equipment long enough to really see the potential. The less debt the better. You don't make money by accumulating more debt. |
I dont think he is upside down on his equipment. I mean after all his truck is paid off. More then i can say lol.
