Why "Hammer Lane"?
For those who are considering a commercial trucking career, you will soon discover that Truckers have their own language and slang. One of those terms is “hammer lane”, which just means the fast lane, or the passing lane of a highway. Usually that is the far-left lane, where drivers can “hammer down” or “step on it”, and pass those in the slower lanes.
Hammer Lane Trucking
When you become a career trucker and become part of the “hammer lane” commercial trucking industry, not only will you discover a whole new language, but you will eventually learn that there are both pros and cons to being a professional big-rig driver. Some of the advantages and benefits of being a truck driver include travel, good pay, job security (will always need goods transported), and adventure, as well as new places and new people.
Of course, as with any career choice, there are going to be some cons, some drawbacks.

Trucker Asset Protection
Now, unless you are an independent owner/operator and totally self-employed, you will probably work for a Trucking company. An advantage to working for a commercial trucking operation is that you will probably have benefits, such as: vacations, sick leave, health insurance, and even life insurance. However, leaving the protection of your family, as well as your personal and business assets in the hands of employer-provided insurance, can be extremely risky.
If you are totally self-employed, then you won’t have those built-in benefits, and will need to put safeguards in place to protection those you love.
Hammer Lane Consultants will help you take an informed look at fully protecting your assets, and at the same time building a nest egg that you can draw on in the event of a temporary or chronic illness. We can also show you how this asset protection can be a huge financial gain.
