More and more, I hear brand new truck drivers contemplating the lease purchase programs many companies are now advocating. It never ceases to amaze me how these companies will target new drivers. Swift Transportation and Prime Trucking are two of the most aggressive lease purchase companies out there, but it seems all of the companies have jumped on the band wagon.After all, why wouldn't a trucking company want to pass along the costs of fuel, purchasing a truck, truck maintenance, truck insurance, permits and health insurance? Not to mention, they no longer are expected to provide a 401k plan with company match. And they get to charge the driver much higher prices than market value for a truck that won't be worth much at the end of the lease.I have heard of drivers buying a used, plain-jane Freightliner century or classic through lease purchase programs and paying i

There is a Zen story that I like a lot about the man in a rowboat who saw a distant ship on the horizon.As it got closer, he thought, “Hmm, it’s heading toward me; that’s strange.”Then it got closer, still. “Hey, you, what’s up? Turn away!”Still closer, he screams, “You’re going to hit me! Turn away, turn away!”The next thing he knows, he’s spitting water, wondering what happened. As he looks at the ship, continuing on its course, he notices it doesn’t have a pilot.He wasted all that time shouting to no one. He would have been better off changing his own course slightly, than trying to get the attention of a phantom.Yet, this happens all the time, in business and in personal life: We try to impress the wrong people.Let me give you an example.It’s a lot of fun being on radio and TV, but all in all, these media have yielded les
You might find your answers through an online public records search. Due diligence applies, as the data at some sites can be outdated or inaccurate. The sites below are good bets, but the list is by no means inclusive.
Public Access to Court Electronic Records is a government site that provides electronic access to case and docket information from Federal Appellate, District and Bankruptcy courts, and from the U.S. PartyCase Index. Most of PACER's records are available on the Internet, but a few must be dialed directly via communication software and a modem. Most jurisdictions offer toll-free numbers for modem dialing.
PACER provides an array of information, including a listing of all parties involved in a case, compilations of case related information, dates of events recorded in a case record, a claims registry and more. Criminal court records are not available through PACER.
PACER registration is free, but a service fee applies. Effective 2005, Web searches are levied at a rate of eight cents per search page, including pages telling you there are no results. Dial up PACER systems charge sixty cents per minute. You pay nothing until you accrue over $10 in a calendar year. Accumulated fees of under $10 are erased at years end.
This highly rated search site uses patented technology to access billions of public records. Search categories include private investigative services, criminal records searches, background searches, financial services, home and family, real estate reports, business searches and court records.
To expand upon just a few of the uses you might make of this site, you could find out if a home contractor has liens, judgments and bankruptcies before contracting with him or her.

So, over the loudspeaker she pages someone above her to come out front to sign for the service of process.In just a few minutes, everyone in the office is asking, "What is a service of process?"

Once a decision had been made to incorporate, the next question will inevitably be where to incorporate. One of the more attractive options available is to set up a Nevada corporation.There are many advantages to forming a Nevada corporation, but before exploring these, it may be advisable to understand from the outset what incorporating in Nevada will not do for you.Incorporating in Nevada will not lower costsYou must have heard the statement quite often that organizing a Nevada corporation will result in lower costs.
