Advice- Trucking vs. Signing Agent
I've been driving trucks OTR for a few months now, and I spend my drive time listening to BiggerPockets podcasts. The more I listen and learn, the more I feel like I'm missing out on great opportunities to be at home networking and learning more. The problem is income. I started from $0, and though I still only have a few thousand dollars to my name now I have a goal of saving and making my first purchase by the end of next year. Driving a truck can provide a decent income, but I have to be away from home to make it.
BiggerPockets Money podcast episode 74 with Mark Wills got me excited to think I can make a similar income at home if I become a signing agent. Does anyone have any experience in this field that would be willing to share how successful they've been. I live in Houston, so I would think there are a lot of opportunities in such a big and thriving city. I'm thinking about being a signing agent part-time on the days I'm home to see if it's worth going to it full-time, but would still like to hear from anyone with firsthand knowledge.
Thanks in advance.
