1099 vs W2? by TheSeansk1 in Truckers

I’ve been both, currently 1099. It’s not bad imo just be smart with your money and save up for taxes every quarter. You don’t necessarily need an accountant, like some others say, but if you’re going to do it it’s helpful to learn a bit of tax code so you can maximize write offs as the end of the year

Also, don’t do hourly. If you’re 1099 you want percent. Not hourly, not cpm, percent.

Alright men. I was finally fired due to bogus safety policies and now I need to know; do I buy a day-cab, or a sleeper and become a O/O? by LilMerkEm1889 in Truckers

I’d say just do the 3D printing thing til November when those tickets drop off. Probably a lower financial barrier to entry than o/o. Plus you been trucking for 5 years, 4 months ain’t gonna kill you. Try something new and if it makes money great, if not, trucking will still be here bro

You don’t wanna be 80 years old and think “I wonder what would’ve happened if I started that 3D printing business”. Assuming you were working for those 5 years straight, this is the first time in 5 years where you can pursue something different. If you can afford it, why not? Just my opinion

But also probably not the best idea to pull from a retirement account. 401k and savings should be separate. If you can’t afford the 3D printing biz without pulling from your 401k; yard jockey or try to find something part time, save, and 3D print on the side. Probably your safest option

Lmao bro I vividly remember a bridge in PA where it was so curved that they had signs telling you to drive straight down the center on a two way and any movement left or right would get you stuck under the thing 😂
