Brother, you do what you gotta do. I have about 12 years to retirement. I'm not surrendering 6% for every year I retire before 65. I'm only 50.

I say that because I am contemplating retiring before 65 so that last post is misleading.

I am close to the decision mark. We are all different. You do you. Take all you can get.

Speaking from my personal experience with the half dozen or so I had ran into. Every one had a different tale to weave about how much they were making and how good they had it. Felt like each one was trying to impress me that we pretty much were working for the same thing.
Friend of mine since grade school ( he doesn’t lie) owns 20 trucks ( he also runs a route)For all his headaches, he is making not much above a good middle class living. He wants out bad but fedx did not have approve of the last 2 buyers.
I never drove around in circles.
Naaaa... I was too busy admiring mine.
It will be fine

If your friend is running 20 trucks and driving one, he’s doing it wrong.

So the fleet that you manage for Freddy, it's all electric right? I mean, oil is evil and all right?

In your mind he's doing it wrong, leave it to you, (a lefty) to decide what is the right way for everyone and everything.
It's doubtful he's running a route because he has to, it sounds like a choice, maybe he should clear his reason with you.
You spend too much time minding other peoples business.

I wouldn’t buy an operation that poorly set up. I’d have to start from scratch developing a management team to properly run it. It’s better to sit back and wait for those operations to fail and take them for free. Your friend will have a harder time finding a buyer if that buyer has to drive a truck. His priority should be getting himself out of a truck. He’ll be happier and his company will be worth much more without any change in revenue.

I don't know much about the business. Just what he has told me.
I always thought he was pretty sharp. I'm giving him the benefit of doubt that he has properly ran it. I think his operation is far from fail.
His priority is to get out of the business completely. Not the truck.
He does not have too many good things to say about the company. Whatever the deal, Fedx is the beneficiary of the cream.
My point was his to me...his take home falls far short for all the work he was doing.
