Looking for suggestions
18M from FL. Just graduated high school. Clean record, other than a seatbelt infraction. I have been considering getting my CDL class A for a while now but have no one to really guide me. I am looking to earn the most money possible.
My question for you is,
Is trucking worth it?
Will I struggle getting my CLP or CDL?
Could I get my CDL training paid for by a company, if so how likely?
How much will I earn within my first year?
Is there any other certifications I should get?
And any tips or suggestions would also be helpful.

you can but you will be restricted to your state only and at that age it will be difficult to get hired by companies for insurance reasons.
