Sorry boss this is not the post I was expecting you to respond to. The one where I broke down your income+expenditures. If you don’t mind biko respond to it. Maybe we’d all learn how you break-even. Because the mathematics is not mathemating.

It's like you're mistaking this thread for your forcasting/crypto/bull-bear thread

You should go back to that thread and keep on busting your scammers. What we have here are ehailing drivers and not people who sit in front of phone's or PC's from morning till night trying to bet on how high or low the next pip lines are drawn.

CheerfulGiver:
I no dey argue with you. Every means of income is reasonable. Even shit_packing. There was this man that his logo was "shit_ business is serious business"

Nigeria has happened to everyone. The reality of it all is that bills must be paid. When people realize that everything is about paying bills, they'll restrategize. For now, make everyone dey play first.

I bought fuel yesterday 15000. Total gross 56000 commission 5300.

Net 35700.

Nobody on this thread can ever give me 35700 in 15hrs if I ask for it. Today I'll go again. I have above half tank. By the time I'll buy fuel again today, I may not even use it till tomorro's hustle.

Make Dem dey complain. Me I don strategize dey cash out. I've paid all bills for yesterday. Will pay for today. That's all it's about.

It's when you realize that nobody cares about you on this thread, maybe they'll restrategize too. I go dey wait. But for now, make we dey play.

CheerfulGiver:
No I won't. It won't make sense till I work with 488/L for the next week.

lanrexdo:
No argument ✖️✖️✖️✖️

Do what pay you

Dey play dey play plenty for here .

Everybody is right on there lane .

Gracias

Some will not even try, they will just sit in their house and analyse everything. Mentally and physically weak people, small thing them don run go back house
Atleast Lanrexdo still tried and came back with a report.

They no dey tell person, when d bills come knocking and there is nobody to dash u money, u will go out and hussle.

So, yesterday (Saturday), I grossed 45k with 30L fuel.
Though I bought the fuel I've been using @184 before subsidy removal.
Now, it is obvious that definitely, 30L fuel will grosss me 45k on weekends (contrary to when fuel was @185 that I could use 30L fuel to get 35k).

ANALYSIS

Before:
Fuel 30L x N185 = 5,550 (tho, I normally buy 6k)
Indrive commission = 3,500
Total = 9,050
Gross = 35,000
Net = 35,000 - 9,050
Equal = 25,950


Henceforth:
Fuel 30L x N490 = 14,700
Indrive commission = 4,500
Total expenses = 19,200
Gross profit = 45,000
Net profit = 45,000 - 19,200
Equal = 25,800

Time and energy input seems the same.
I don't normally use weekdays for my analysis cos weekdays are a rough period that require more strategies (for me). Sometimes, they come easy, other times, they come not easy.

Much respect, bosses.

No lies.
People should just do whatever they feel is good for them.
Lately I always have the urge to reply many people but most times once I finish typing the reply, I will just delete everything, because no matter what say people will just want to argue.

This is me advising any body that wants to venture into this line of hustle (drive by yourself), pls go ahead with no restraint. I can only tell u what I know and what I do.
I remember 2years ago when I was about to venture into this hustle, I planned buying a manual car, I came here to solicit for advice, what most people did was to discourage me and say a lot of demoralizing stories, and even go as far as posting traumatic pictures of drivers that drive manual cars (yam legs)
But there where still some people that spoke their Truth concerning my question ( I won't write there moniker so that the purpose of what I am writing won't be disturb), and I was lucky to decipher what's good for me.
I bought the manual car luckily it's in a perfect condition except for the Ac.
What I want to say is that, it's two years I am driving that car now, my legs are still fresh and fine, it doesn't ache or hurt, I have made my capital & much much more ROI, car is still in very good condition because I don't joke with maintenance.
Have there been challenges? Yes
Have I overcome? yes
Will there still be challenges? yes
Will I overcome? It's left to me.
Can't type it all.



I just pray say everyone go dey alright las las.


This is for those that wants to argue ( I do Ajo contribution of atleast 155k monthly) 20k every friday, and 75k monthly.

If u like say na lie na u Sabi.....I av just said it as it is.
NB: this post is not to cause chaos, but to help whoever needs the motivation .

Peace ✌️

Airline increased their fares by over 200%. In fact at a time an average Abuja to Lagos flight costs 100,000 naira. Guess what? People still flew. Here in Abuja bolt/uber fares are so cheap even your local pepper seller can book a ride for 400 naira. In saner climes this is meant to be a luxury service. Private cabs is for people who can afford the luxury. If you no get money you can enter danfo or keke.

If the price is right, with 3-4 trips person supposed don close dey go house. Not where you see someone driving for over 13hrs! Just to hit target. Na modern day slavery we dey so.

Orangewall:


Some times I feel people are paid promoters like WTF. Well me don go house sha

pope191:


Pearl sorry to say this your post is pointless... I deh omole estate like this, fuel 10k no reach half tank and that's 20L. The trips out here are not encouragin at all.

From 184 to 488 and you are expecting people not to frown at it. Even NNPC is predicting a lot, the road has been free ever since, people are trying to adjust to reality, houses can't run Gen again, but you went to act as is all is well or we all should act as if all is well. Are you devil's advocate? Just a question... take a look around, nothing is working as it used to be.

GeneralZodd:
I be Uber driver with some little side hussle.

Orangewall:


Oga you won't blame them, I'm a part time driver since this fuel increase, the only rides I have done is when I pin my home address and take someone to that area then go home.
I had some fuel this morning and I said I should top it with 4000 fuel. I came out around 7am, can you imagine the trips I did(Four trips) till around some minutes to 9am, my fuel was back to where I met it this morning. Guess how much 4100. Are you playing? I've not paid bolt their commission o. Location is Abuja.

So you won't blame people that are not driving this period, like this in owing bolt, profit of 100 is what i have made.

Nice one

I love saving too. My saving habit is very very extreme,

This my 5th year saving from the hussle

Nah investing I dey learn small small now.

Cos that's the only way to multiply money and attain financial freedom

Pearl1910:


I am not clapping for Govt or supporting the new fuel price. Sorry if my posts sound that way. My focus is to people who are saying u can't earn XYZ with ABC amount of fuel.
These are two different things. Me myself have declared my thoughts on the fuel hike viz a viz the fares but the difference between me and many people is that I don't seat and cry over my challenges, I find a way around it. That I have done and moved on. If others want to wait till govt reduces the fuel price or for bolt to increase base fare to 2k, it's their choice. Please look at my posts again and u will see my focus, don't get the wrong message again.

lrman:


Dey play

Ssssshhh empty barrels make the loudest noise...you make noise too much..


We have genuine ehailing drivers on this thread who will tell you reality and not peddle lies like you....it is not every driver on this thread that are foolish paid promoters and con-men like you.... keep using alt monikers and be lying to decieve the honest drivers that are on this thread....keep misleading some drivers...continue to peddle lies for selfish reasons....

Very soon you will tell them how hardwork will help them make million naira per day..

Keep deceiving those that you have decieved successfully..not everyone is dumb..

Pearl1910:


Necessity is the mother of invention.
I perfectly understand the debacle Sir.
Now that we have found ourselves in this situation, what are we going to do to remain afloat? I think that's the discussions we should be having now.

pope191:


Here you are making sense. 30L is more than half tank and very feasible. I strongly believe there will be some balance in the hustle if drivers borrow themselves brain. I just did 5k to iponri from ajayi road. On the norms it use to be between 3.5 to 4k. Telling me you use half tank 25L to do 61k for 3 days after driving home for 3 days get as e b.

lrman:

So while I was reading your response..I suspected that you are the same person as cheerfulgiver..which is the typical moderus operandi of you this con-men...so while I was about to investigate.. ..I realized that someone else already exposed you even before now sef...

So the question is why , why do you guys love to use alt monikers to quote yourselves and hype yourselves and defend your lies ?? for what purpose exactly?? Should we call it "low self esteem " or just part of the plan to keep deceiving people and be lying to them about what you are not ??

CheerfulGiver:
No I won't. It won't make sense till I work with 488/L for the next week. My engine is well maintained. After fill up yesterday, I have driven 134.8 miles.

Now convert miles to km. Then my tank is above half tank. Do the maths. I don't have time.

Conner44:


Irman, zukwanuike.

You are derailing this thread

Pearl1910:


If I or Cheerfulgiver did this they will say it's a lie. It's not possible, We are agents blablabla.
I know the fuel increase will affect the profits hussle but how can we go around it and maintain status quo or even make more. That is what is on my head. As I am lying down like this, that's what I think of , as far as I know this is what I still want to do. If it doesn't pay me again, I find something else to do and not heap my woes on the app companies.
People will not like my views, but that's just how I am wired. I am sorry.
