Can 20k PMS gross 80k? YES
Is it consistent? NO
bro you missed the point.....I am not saying 20k fuel can or can't gross 80k, the argument was the pricing. He said even with the pricing of that trip I did he can still gross 80k with 20k fuel which I am saying it's not possible. That trip I went on was over 50kms with almost 3hrs traffic with full AC and the guy still claims he will gross 80k with 20k fuel. Abeg make we dey take this lie easy na

This was achieved with #20,000 worth of PMS @ #1,080/L

Time interval: 11am-9pm
from what I can see here the total distance you covered was 115kms to make 60k+, distance 115kms and I covered almost half of that to make just 20k and drove 3hrs non stop just to realise that....bro it doesn't take a genius to even know that what that guy said is not possible. Using this your picture as example that means you would have used 8k-10k fuel to run that demeaning trip bolt send there papa on

A corolla that is sound should be doing 10km per litre. This is after factoring regular depreciation, ideally the corolla should be doing 12km to the litre. Also this is combined driving.
I say this from my own experience using a corolla which was 2 years in e-hailing already, when i started this hustle. A lot of us are driving inefficient vehicles, I know I am.
My car shows what I average in realtime so its more black and white for me, like when I switched to bigger tyres to lift the car a bit more, it impacted my fuel consumption.
There are a lot of things we are not paying attention to fam, no be just to de carry people upandan

I understand Nigeria is a mess when it comes to law and enforcing it due to selective application.. but then all what is listed is normal thing every road s must observe.. it’s easy to get a Nigerian drivers license hence the reason for unlawful driving.. I knew what I ed through before I was able to my practical driving test. Most of those things listed can cause one his UK drivers license if you flaunt it. As long as they won’t be selective application, I think it’s the right way to go

Hi Brothers and sisters on this forum… I believe everyone’s good…

Well, here’s your small boy again Ghost1994 and below is my advice to “we” hustlers/Pilot/Drivers etc…

This season is drivers season where you can plan your life again and again.

I don’t know how it’s work now but due to my years of experience as a driver I can still drop one or two experiences that helped me out.

1. Try as much as possible to set a good target for yourself example;

A. I used to set my target back then 5K I must have it at hand and 5K in bank, 3k to drop at home for wifey and 3.5K to start work in morning. Well my most important target back then was 5K cash 3k wifey and 3.5 for fuel… ⛽️

B. I make sure I use bolt/uber bonuses to clear off my accumulated bills at least 30% of the dual bonuses

C. I set one day Thursday as off day regardless of anything I make sure I use the day only to check my car and be with family. Although, reason why I set the day was that Thursday use to be very dull for me.

2. I listen to my car 🚘… well, she’s my second wife that brings the food to the table. Any small noise, I don carry Bluetooth scan to check error codes and be fine.

A. I have different mechanic 🧑‍🔧 for my car
B. I don’t fix my major job I.E. engine overhaul or gear overhaul in Lagos
C. Lagos mechanic I used to have are good for shocks, brake pad change and lower arms.
D. I don’t listen to Kazeem that’ll tell me to remove thermostat or by wire instead of changing fuse
E. I go on YouTube to understand more about my car I drive and potential problem it’s could give after some mileage

3. I start and close early… well, they say bad things happens during the dark

A. I used to live on the mainland and whatever I am doing or wherever I might be, once my closing alarm rang by 8-8.30 I’m finding a trip home or finding my way home alone/pick enger on the way.
B. I don’t believe in specific areas at some period of time… Ikeja and environs used to be dull during 10-12pm I don’t need to be their I won’t even accept trip their unless the trip is bring me from island

4. I don’t believe in party or club

A. I cut down all the bs parties and clubs because I’ll spend money not that I’m earning anything in club or party 🎉
B. I cut down friends that’ll tell me to chill at beer parlor instead of choosing to learn skill
C. I created a small circle of friend (1) original from day one

5. I learn course online during my off day and free day

A. Coursera, Udemy and Allison are good even you can and start learning something that’ll help you in growth.
B. While waiting for trips, I’ll be on coursera reading my course while waiting for trip on other phone.

6. I pray alone
A. I don’t believe in church or mosque (I’m not weird) I believe in humanity than bs religion
B. My wife’s xtian and I respect her religion and her with everything but I don’t belong to one.

7. I never believe in Nigeria will be better I plans my japa from the beginning and working hard on it.

The above point (7) is the major reason I’m writing these epistle to this platform…

Why you need to use these method and save for next year japa is because it’ll do you allot good.

We have more than 170+ countries in the world 🌍 don’t revolve your life applications in USA 🇺🇸 Canada 🇨🇦 Australia 🇦🇺 and UK 🇬🇧.

Brother and sister try other country work permit we have many embassies in Nigeria please don’t limit yourself go online and read allot about flourishing country you can start from scratch.

European Union have more than 15 countries please 🙏 do yourself good by going to their recruitment website use translator and do something better instead of unnecessary argument about earnings.

I am currently in a country with few blacks and trust me, I never regretted it. I left Nigeria 2 years and 3 months ago and the blessings I can count is more than 10years of staying in Naija doing jamajama.

I’m a full time German automobile mechanic now. In less down 2 years I learned it because they gave room for easy growing.

The uber car I sold coming here, I bought more than that after 8month of living here.

I never build my house but then the project is going on the land.

I have personal car here vw at 2017

Brothers and sisters I’m not proud or humiliating my colleagues and hustlers here because it’s a faceless forum anyways but I’m typing these to someone to motivate them.

I was in Naija for 15 days vacations in July I felt so bad that I couldn’t explained what people are going through I had to reschedule my ticket 🎫 back. Because I couldn’t bear the spendings anymore. I was supposed to spend 1 month but I couldn’t cope anymore I felt Nigeria is not my home anymore

Nigeria system is design to kill dreams please 🙏 try and check other countries

Learn other languages too and apply for assistant teacher with a small certificate in Allison course to back it up

If you can read this, definitely you can start something early.

I love y’all

Ghost1994

My brother thank you for this piece. Pls can I reach out to you personally. Like personal email etc. Ave saved some cash and tried severally to japka Tru Canada. Paid fees etc but was denied twice. I wanna try other places like Netherlands etcI have documents to show my previous efforts.
