as above…thats the reality of it.
your going to be a busy poor man.
your going to see your savings and capital outlay go down the pan.
by the time that it dawns on you,then you will most likely be buried in finances thinking,if i just try 1 more year then surely itl get better,then it wont,then back to my previous post to you…guaranteed end of story.
otherwise,your another lamb to the slaughter.
maritime and all the others offering traction work will watch your earnings on a monthly basis and feed you enough just to scrape by thereafter you cant leave as you cant afford to then you will eventually be referring back to my previous post.again.

It’s not like transport business is dead and you can’t make money it’s just being smart and getting the right sort of work and not drive yourself into debt.
I’m good with numbers so will definitely work out if work is worth while.
Won’t sell myself cheap and work for peanuts I want to start this to make some money not just a living cuz I can do that working for someone else.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
you asked for advice and your getting similar from other posters.
lose the rose tint specs and take a reality pill.
go and do it then remember these posts when your ■■■ is in tatters.
all i see here is ignorance is bliss,and none so blind.
please do remind us how well your doing after a year or so then see if the words “we told you so” ring true.
goodluck if you earn fortunes but its highly likely you will earn half of what your normal rdc work plobber comes home with not taking into consideration when the gearbox kakks itself on a fri round the M25 then all he has to do is call it in then lie back and eat his gingsters pie waiting on the recovery…dream on son,as thats all it is unless you run bent,have a previous life in haulage,or find a niche specialised market direct for someone.
