Default Becoming a Owner Operator

Okay here is the scoop.

My wife and I want to purchase a truck...probably a Freightliner Century and neither of us are driving it, we don't have CDL'S and don't care to learn.

We want to either hire my brother to drive the truck or someone else.

Once we buy the truck and register it and all the other issues that come with it, where should we start looking?

Do I just go around looking for companies to haul for? Should I buy my own trailer as well?

Also, how would I pay our driver? Is it more profitable for in town/state or cross country hauling?

any help is appreciated before we pull the trigger.
