Baba, you, and other senior drivers and partners on this thread know that anyone that makes 10k gross in a day made ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Even if you made 10k net in a day inclusive of expenses, you made ALMOST NOTHING

His motive is to encourage people, which we all know is good. Let's just let him be. We all know 1500# fuel cannot not give you 10k, unless you're a descendant of Saka cheesy.

So just let the issue slide bros. His motive is cool(to encourage others). So let's just stick with that

I greet you sir

Lol, I am not a senior driver and I don't see myself as one, prolly going to crawl back to my hole nd stay off comment. Thanks boss

Started the day on a good note, Had my first trip inside lekki around 4:45am, fare #437, took my second trip from lekki to airport at 5am, Fare was #3700, drove to Maryland, got another trip to amuwo odofin, fare was #1500, got another trip to ikeja, was on trip when I entered the trap. There was serious traffic at fagbems, so I decided to turn back to use ago palace way. Did small one way of about 40m on that road beside fagbems and bam! Those guys just blocked me like a commando. Before I knew it I was at their office around first gate.
OC: Oga, because sey na we-we, go and bring #35000. If no be say na you, na #150000 you go pay.
I went outside, made some calls.
OC: Oga na your key be this?
Me: yes.
OC: but you go give them 3k for gate,
Me: No wahala.
Moral: don't be tempted, even if it is 2metres, it won't end well.
Las las, rider leave me find im way. Na me face am!

Sorry boss

well.. am a silent reader and I don't think I ever missed a page on dis thread since day 1,

now if U work well, by Tuesday U shud be enjoying 3% on Uber(target 10 trips on Monday and complete d remaining 5 b4 12 noon on Tuesday) so Uber takes 25% is faulty...

I wake up 4.45am every day, set my destination to Ajah(I stay in Surulere) and I will definitely get VI or Lekki, from dere I start my day.

now to ur 11pm... I work for 6-8 hrs during d week, and I take one day off.

weekend I work for 10-12hrs.

I deliver 30k per week and I safe at least 15k.

note am not fulfilled but am hanging and my brother always tell me he can't use me to judge most Uber drivers cos I made d work look so simple.

but I gained all from dis thread some gurus @ifeanyimark, Chilex, Mayor, Gazzuz techy inputs, Dru sincere comment.

lastly Jesusson just calm down and do ur work...

Jah bless our hustle
Amen jare. I just used that illustrations as a basis. That's most of the reality on ground. You know other challenges might come up. Fan, tyre and other minor repairs. But in all sha, it's all good. At least we all still pushing.

You guys have forgotten Uber is charging 3%.

So if I make 10k Uber only get 300naira. So u keep mentioning how I gross 13k I was just tired of replying u. Yes I use 1500 fuel I bought in the morning to make 10k. Izzou ur car is camry, mine is corolla.

Yesterday I have 5k net, after my rental fee, gave 5 beggers 100naira each. My food cost 350 each this time, bc of extra meat. My broda I will always thank God.

Buy a Tokunbo Honda Civic 2005 for between 1.1m to 1.3m, use and sell as Nigerian used car for between 600k to 800k
Buy a Tokunbo Toyota Corolla 2005 for between 1.7 to 1.9m, use and sell as Nigerian used car for between 1.1m to 1.3m
In both cases, the car sold for about 500 to 600k less than Tokunbo price

Now, talk to me again about second hand value.

PS: the above statement assumes that both vehicles are properly maintained

Somebody is thinking here... Tiri Gbosa for U broda

Hopefully it will lead you to work smarter.. This is your time to work hard bro while you are young..... If you are broke I don't know where the spirit will lead u to .. They are different spirits out there . Spirit of doubt, spirit of fornication, spirit of laziness etc and the list goes on. Just know dey kind spirit dey lead u o

I dig boss, I don't drive does not mean I'm sleeping, I don't intend to drive forever, I most fall back to sometime, with energy dis job consumes, one truly need time out to evaluate and strategize. Like I said pension no deh, you are as good as your last day, life is all about sacrifices if you are willing to survive, lot of guys are going into real estate now, maybe just 1 hit could fetch dem million, profit on a vessel from Lome is worth up to 300million for dose big man/Mafia in d industry, all deh ever need is just 2 transaction for d year they are OK for dat year.... So boss most time, its all about mental work not energy.

That's the problem, day dreaming. Talking about vessel of 300million, when you should be talking about buying another corolla. Now I see where you guys keep losing focus.

Na with shining teeth them take they do real estate

You will continue to loose focus. Acknowledge ur present situation and face life step by step.

If you drive for a living then you will know that driving isn't easy therefore you need to always take a break even if the car is urs or u are on rental especially if it's In a very unorganized and traffic laden city like Lagos. Dangote that you mentioned in ur post does he drive for a living? Driving is a very strenous work and it weakens the brain and gradually drains the body out. Even Chisco bus drivers take breaks how much more a ridesharing driver.. well, ur comments atimes make me want to believe that you are yet to understand this work irrespective of the fact that you own vehicles on the platform.

I so hated Ikeja and it's environs that some times, I pay #200 toll to enter Ajao estate and get my island trip angry

Some drivers basically spend their days on Ikeja. Just switch on your app while changing positions. Maybe a nearby rider request fit catch you
