    Here's an example of Gross/Net for a company (W2) employee:
    Gross = $1,021.06 (before deductions)
    Net = $838.23 ( after deductions and what actually went into my bank account)

    • @DrtyDiesel
      @DrtyDiesel  ปีที่แล้ว

      With w2 you have your gross and net, clear cut. With being leased to a carrier, you have your gross, then your pay after the carriers cut, then if they take deductions from your settlement, you finally have what’s left over that goes to your bank account.

      Yall are not too bright telling everyone and posting on internet what you make. Lol. In general everyone in fuel hauling makes close to same amount owner op to owner op and company guy to company guy. My advice find company that suits you and you get along well with people in charge and fellow drivers for most part. And go to work. Work steady and consistent and you'll be fine. Don't lease trucks from company only from dealers or buy em out right. I own mine. No payment I do well enough but it's due to my steady and consistent work ethic. And I pay the truck first. Which means MAINTENANCE. Be safe. Rock steady. And God speed

      I checked quickbooks and as of my last settlement I'm at $72k. That's after truck payment, and all deductions the company takes out of my settlement.
      So I would still have fuel, bobtail Insurance, maintenance, and my personal salary to take out. I don't file quarterly taxes so I just estimate what I'll owe and at the end of the year I cut a check to the IRS which will include my self employment taxes.

While you’re working and learning, you can establish a business name for yourself, establish an LLC or S Corp, then open a business account.
