Absof$&kinglutely! When can I start?

That’s 90 days of boring aggravating work that I can find all kinds of ways to make the most of in exchange for retirement/financial independence at age 30.

This would be more gruling than people think but i travel for work every Sunday and drive anywhere from 5 to 7 hours and back on Thursday. So i think I could do it.

Is the 90 days going to cost me 15 to 20 yrs? If it's just carrying coors then i would do it in a heart beat

I could do that standing on my head and would go another 90 days for $10mm more. That is usually a 7:10-7:20 trip either way as long as you miss rush in ATL.

You act like they have to survive in antarctica or Forest Gump run for 90 days.

go through a few podcasts series and you're wealthy. 99% of America would do this for $1 mil. The other 1% it wouldn't be worth their time.

No truck driver is doing 1k+ a day. Its illegal. Thats a tight 16 hours driving a day. Most couldn't physically do it. I guess you could change vehicles, so you can minimize wear and tear. But I live in Atlanta add have family in BR, so I've done that drive a lot, never a round trip.. Nobody could make it 90 days in a row. Have to drive at night and hit both at the right time (traffic). It makes a big difference what part of Atlanta and what part of BR, makes a difference of hours..

Yeah but they might drive 12 hours. I'm not sure what the current laws are. You wouldn't work 33% overtime for 90 days to never have to work again? I'd work 90 hrs per week in 2021 if it meant I could retire at the end of the year.

Can I team drive it? If so, easy.

If solo, I’d certainly give it one helluva shot.

15-16 hrs of just straight driving. Plus eating/shitting/stretching, looking at 17-18 hours/day. 5 hours of sleep and 1-2 hours of standard wake up/prep/wind down.

I could do that for 90 days, but it would be pretty miserable.

That’s also 90,000+ miles. I’m assuming I can swap vehicles and get some type of overnight maintenance that doesn’t consume the travel window?
