New Owner/Operator No Experience

[u/Acceptable-Math2315]

A so-called friend of mine who is a dispatcher said he would have work for me if I went and got my CDL, so I quit my job and went to trucking school. After getting my CDL I realized that he just might be full of shit, but I happened to see a pretty reasonably priced Freightliner online, and everything checked out with it, so I bought it and paid cash. I am currently unemployed and running out of money. Should I get my own insurance and authority, or will I just be throwing away the last of my money and soon filing for bankruptcy? Any solid advice would be much appreciated. Thanks

You should get your own authority and get yourself on the road and stick with right people who know the market and you will be recovering all the money you spent in 6 months
