What Russell covers, mile by mile
About 90 minutes, straight through, using the real 2026 numbers from the book.
-
Getting your CDL without getting trapped
Private school costs $4,000 to $6,000 and you owe nobody. Company-sponsored training is free, but you sign away a year. Russell breaks down which path fits your situation.
-
Surviving year one
Most rookies quit in the first year. Hear what the first 90 days are really like, why G.O.A.L. (get out and look) protects your record, and which endorsements to pick up while you are still in school.
-
New truck or used truck
A new rig runs close to $200,000 with a payment around $3,500 a month. A solid three-year-old truck runs $65,000 to $85,000. Russell explains why the gap between those two payments is your growth money.
-
What your own authority costs
The 2026 line items, one by one: the FMCSA filing, BOC-3, UCR, plates and fuel tax, and the big one, insurance at $12,000 to $18,000 a year for a new authority.
-
What you keep from a $3,500 load
Fuel, insurance, the truck note, the maintenance fund. Russell walks the math from the rate confirmation down to what lands in your pocket.
-
The Three-Bucket System
How to split every check the day it lands, so tax season never catches you short.
-
Your questions
Live Q&A. Bring the question you have not been able to get a straight answer to.
-
VIP seats: the private round
When the class ends and the free seats leave, VIP seats stay on for 15 more minutes of questions with Russell.
Three ways new trucking businesses go under
Russell has watched all three happen to good drivers. The class shows you how to see them coming.
-
Tax shock
A $5,000 settlement check lands on Friday and gets spent like it is all yours. In April the IRS asks for money that is already gone. Nobody withholds taxes for an owner-operator.
-
More truck than the business can carry
A $3,500 monthly note is due before you buy a gallon of diesel or pay yourself a dime. One slow month and you are behind.
-
Cheap freight
The book puts the 2026 cost to run a truck at about $2.26 a mile. Take a $1.80 load just to get home and you are paying the shipper to haul their freight.
Brother Trucking by Mulababy
Smart driving. Real money. Real life.
Part memoir, part masterclass. Russell tells his own story as a second-generation trucker and lays out the business playbook behind it: running one truck well, growing from a single rig to a company, and handling what the industry throws at you in the cab and in the office.
It speaks plainly about the journey and grit it takes to build a business as a Black entrepreneur in trucking, and it passes on lessons handed down from his father.

Hollywood: The Long Road Back
A story of perseverance.
Russell's own account of life after trucking: from his lowest moment to the driver's seat of a semi-truck, into acting and music production in Hollywood, and the long road back to the profession he longed for.
If you are in the pit right now, it is proof that the road back stays open as long as you are willing to drive.

Questions people ask first
Do I need a CDL or any experience?
No. The class starts from zero: how to get licensed, what the first year looks like, and what a truck and your own authority really cost. If you already drive, you will still get the startup numbers and the Q&A.
Is the free seat really free?
Yes. The free seat gets you the full live class. The VIP seat is optional and adds the private Q&A round after class.
Yes. There is nothing to pay and no card to enter.
What do I need to join?
A phone, tablet or computer with the free Zoom app. Headphones help. Bring something to write with, because there are numbers.
How do I get the Zoom link?
Right after you save your seat you land on a confirmation page with your next steps, and the link goes to the email you signed up with. You can add the class to your calendar from that page.
What does the VIP seat add?
When the class ends and the free seats leave, VIP seats stay on for a private 15-minute Q&A round with Russell. It is a smaller room, so your question gets answered.
I already have my own truck. Is this class for me?
This class is built for people starting from zero. If you already run your own truck, the Owner-Operator and Fleet Owner courses are the better fit.
Is this legal, tax or financial advice?
No. Russell teaches from his own experience and the numbers in his book. Before you form a company, sign a loan or file taxes, talk to a CPA, an attorney and a licensed insurance agent.
