You’re about to discover powerful insight into the CDL business that has been buried deep within the hearts of the millionaire truck drivers. Truckers are the lifeline of any country. Food, fuel, fashion—you name it! Everything depends on the trucking industry to move cargo from point A to point B. The CDL business is one of the biggest cash cows in the world, eyeing a market worth of over $730 billion in the US alone. And with a little over 900,000 truckers employed in the US, the CDL trucking industry is running short on people and BIG on opportunities.

This concept of "being your own boss" is undoubtedly an alluring one. Nonetheless, not everyone can be a boss - not one decent or effective, at least. If you are actually an employee of someone (not a boss), it is perfectly natural to fantasize about owning a business of your own on those days when you are fed up with your current boss or work. The rags-to-rich stories you hear about entrepreneurs who have turned their visions into millions or even billions of dollars, make your fantasy even more attractive.

The government and all of its respective agencies are in a war to spend more and more money. With policies like “use it or lose it” and our military industrial complex, it’s no wonder why we’ve have been on a spending tear since World War II. To make matters more attractive to small businesses (as defined by Small Business Administration rules), the United States is consistently spending huge sums of money with new suppliers.

The government and all of its respective agencies are in a war to spend more and more money. With policies like “use it or lose it” and our military industrial complex, it’s no wonder why we’ve have been on a spending tear since World War II. To make matters more attractive to small businesses (as defined by Small Business Administration rules), the United States is consistently spending huge sums of money with new suppliers.

The genius of The App Millionaire is that it forces you to take a close and personal look at your business goals while challenging your approach on business development. Instead of the axiom of "think big", the author, Greg Shealey, PhD suggests you "think small". This philosophy of micro-business entrepreneurship has afforded many people the opportunity to own profitable businesses with advantages to traditional business models such as very little overhead, a quick start-up time, and lower risk, just to name a few.

You'll hear stories of everyday people from all backgrounds that I've personally interviewed and vetted, from people with graduate degrees to high school dropouts and from yard guys to corporate professionals. Really, the only thing they all have in common is that they've put $1,000,000 in the bank (or will shortly).

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 45
The idea of owning a business crosses everyone's minds from time to time, and I was no different. For the majority, all that really comes along is a fleeting thought that never gets much true consideration. There are many reasons why people are afraid to take the plunge - they do not have access to substantial funds, they are afraid to lose the security that comes with a steady paycheck, they believe they will have even less time for family and other commitments, and a host of other "I just can't do it" excuses. But the biggest reason that most people never try is simple - they are terrified of failure. I was no different as I mentioned, I have gone through all the phases that most go through before getting into their own business, but being a OTR truck driver, I was gone weeks at a time. I still loved what I was doing, but I had been married now for several years, and we had two children with a third on the way. I missed my family when I was gone, and it was hard on my wife as well.

This concept of "being your own boss" is undoubtedly an alluring one. Nonetheless, not everyone can be a boss - not one decent or effective, at least. If you are actually an employee of someone (not a boss), it is perfectly natural to fantasize about owning a business of your own on those days when you are fed up with your current boss or work. The rags-to-rich stories you hear about entrepreneurs who have turned their visions into millions or even billions of dollars, make your fantasy even more attractive.
