20K can go pretty far with a used TM and some equipment if you know where and what to look for
Maybe in the beginning. I think you're right.as broke d1ck myself, Russ, i can tell you that's insurmountable start-up cost for many folks .
More realistic would be a few thou$and for a "decent" porty, used rotary and a few cases of juice .
he'll make more right out of the gate than 30% (I'm ASSuming the jasper he's with is classifying him as a sub) meaning no bennies, no workers comp, no taxes, no nuttin but $27 bukz for a $89 job that probably takes him an hour or two to do with set-up and drive time
he may as well pack his OWN porty in his Pinto and collect the whole check ....
..L.T.A.
Maybe in the beginning. I think you're right.
BUT when the work starts coming in, running a TM will be the more PROFITABLE thing to do. You can simply get more work done to a higher level with better equipment.
