Default Side jobs?

Does anyone try to keep up a side job in addition to their otr job? My girlfriend and I have a side business and its going good. Eventually I should be able to get off of the road, at least for business purposes. I am not trying to advertise here, if you want the info I can email or Im it to you. I was just wanting to know if others have goals of getting off of the truck and back to a little bit of a normal home life? I have been driving for 20 years and am about ready to get back home for good.

Nope-I ran hard and when I was home it was time to relax for a bit.

I funnel money from me driving into my wifes heavy hauling business, well I did now its self sufficient, now we just invest 25% of the profit and save the rest. I love driving but I dont see myself doing it forever, not that theres anything wrong with driving.

I have three other businesses in mind, but as long as I'm supporting a finance company with my truck, it's slow going trying to get one other one off the ground. I'm also surprised to find that very few engineers have a clue about the theory of operation for "Electron Spin Propulsion". It's been around for more than 25 years, but nothing has been done with it.

Electron spin propulsion, I have a garbage disposal duct taped to my DeLoreon. Am I on the right track?
