Hello Everyone.
My Name is Ronald (Ron)
I am a new member here, i fond this site like most have looking to learn about the industry and how to make money in it.
I am currently put of work for the third time in 4 years. Therefore I am now looking to take charge of my future. I am a 49 year old man with some education. I worked 16 years a a designer in the engineering industry until i was laid off on 09. After sending out over 250 resumes and having every door shut in my face. I started driving a over the road 18 wheeler. This all most cost me my wife, and I lost that job back a few months ago. I took a local driving job only to be replaced by Mexican nationals flown in specifically to replace 36 american drivers.
Ok; enough of my sob story. I am here to learn the industry and learn it better than anyone else. I know this is a huge undertaking, but I am up for the task. What do I have to lose? Time, money (I don't have), really i don't have anything to lose, however i have everything to gain.
