I understand you points.
HP is not for everyone but that doesn't mean it won't work.

No one can drive 730 days without hindrance and when I said 730 days I didn't mean it in a stretch. No one signs a contract that doesn't allow for hindrance. We are humans.

My point is from a positive perspective.

If a Toyota corolla is totally sound, engine, body, gearbox and suspension it is very easy to achieve HP. I gave that guy a number of factors that would make him successful and if he sticks to it, he will be fine.

If you can consistently net 120k in a week and you have a good maintenance habit and saving habit, you don't need two years to complete the hp. You need those factors I mentioned, focus, and commitment.

A tokunbo corolla can go straight 2 months without needing anything more than an oil change. And if he uses the extended performance oil, 3 months before oil change. Let's not talk as if cars break down everyday.

At 120k a week, he owes only 35k.

Do you agree that with the remaining 85k left from that week, it is enough for him to fuel the car, eat, recharge his data and airtime and then save at least 25k weekly?

If a driver on HP can save 25k weekly, by the 12th month, he has saved 1.2m and has paid out almost 1.7m. If he decides to pay 900k to the car owner from his yearly savings, how many months do you think is left for him to complete the balance?

Don't forget the month of December.... Don't forget.

I understand that it is impossible to some drivers, but HP is very achievable if all conditions are met, especially focus and determination.

If you make 15k daily on weekdays, and 50k combined on weekends that's already 125k.

Someone like me will dust this HP but I agree that everyone doesn't have, not share my mindset.

Facts only

Bro I will definitely agree with you. One of my customers has been using Mobil extended performance from day 1 he bought his 04 corolla tokunbo.. With fram ultra synthetic oil filter.. He had no problems so far.. He has been driving car for at least 1 year on uber.. No major issue at all .. He used to change the oil at about 6k miles or so .. I told him extended performance is for good for 15k miles.. Don't waste your money doing oil change at 6k miles.. So now he is doing the 10k miles oil challenge.. He is on 9k miles as we speak, I told him not to throw away his oil filter once he is done.. I told him to cut open the fram oil filter after 10miles oil challenge.. To see how the oil filter holds up.. My point is that the corolla is strong enough. So doing basic maintenance will prolong the engine.. Since he has been buying oil from me ,he has never complain about the car . And I forgot to mention that he bought the car at about 120k miles .. Which is nothing for a corolla, funny enough one of his friend on hp is actually doing the exact same thing. But if I continue talking now ,people will say na because I want sell oil. Even me self use the product on my cars.

You want to be clever by half. I'm a Chemical Engineer. 1) Choose any 8 consecutive weeks of your choice
2) Post your net earnings for those 8 weeks week by week
3) Earn your #15,000
4) "If you can consistently net 120k in a week" key words, consistently, net, in a week.
5) Why not stake a little something too, say like #7,500? Let's make this fun
chemical engineer? Yet you do not understand that 120k weekly can come from uber, taxify and offline? You want to see 120k in a straight line for 8 weeks which amounts to a total of 960k

I posted cumulative 972k for the same 8 weeks but you are discrediting it and telling me you are a chemical engineer. What has being a chemical engineer got to do with simple mathematics.

I'm sorry for quoting you, I hope you won't call me names this time.
Can any driver do 120k weekly consistently for a year?

One of new driver is a female.. She is a rookie, she started driving this January of 2019. She delivers her 30k weekly on time.. Sometimes I do give her break and days that she didnt work ,due to minor car maintenance. She still deliver, though she says it is not easy. But she is trying, especially been a rookie and also the slow month of January, which of coz most businesses are slow for that month.. My point is you will never know until you try it .. If a woman can do it ,I don't see any excuse for a man not to go way and beyond.. As am typing now ,I spoke to another female experience uber driver. Am hoping to have a on board by all means...

1) Leave the offline out of this, except you can show us a bank transfer with a name matching the name of the rider
2) Listen to your words again - net #120,000 every week, consistently. Those are your own words. So show us how you did it for 2 months, then we will try to reason with you that it can be done on hire purchase for 2 years
3) Cumulative is easy. It doesn't tell the real story - that in this hustle, its inconsistent. There are ups and then there are downs. Many hire purchase arrangements fail because of this your same assumption - I net #120,000 per week, I will remove #35,000; I have #85,000 to play around with. Its not that simple. Sir.

I can understand you perfectly and wish you know we r partially on the same page. Chucmoore said something that it wasn't easy when he started, same thing here. But I have to narrow my option down to salary earner of 50/80k, their take home per day is BTW 2500/3500, so if I can take home such after fuelling I'll manage till offline customer blessings start falling and its a kind of make up.

I like your energy and can't knock your hustle, dough I may not envy it, cos from my angle its like you work 7 days in a week (Ain't money conscious or have anything to prove to that extent), if dia is one thing life has taught me, whatever I gross a week/month is wot someone else makes from just a finger call, so my health first.

All I'm trying to say, is checking the soundness of the car, for a new common, he will learn through the job and make mistakes (costly once in some cases), will the owner of the car understand? Glad you said everyone can't boost of your energy (its rare), figures can b throw online, actualising it is another thing, our breaking point varies.

I wrote this not just for you or the person we r both trying to pass the message across to... But for that investor/driver that is allowing figures to get to them and want to delve into the sea without trying to know the depth. HP & rental r not the same, but r both obtainable.

Oga dru, understand that consistent earnings in the 120k+ weekly gross range is very possible, but only a very few drivers - maybe like 1% - can achieve it. Like Chucksmoore said, there is a learning curve to it. There's attitude and work ethics involved. There's terrain knowledge involved. Customer relations. Driving skills. Car care skills. Knowledge of self skills - when to push the button and when to stop.
No one should come here and imply any body can just run a hire purchase of #3.5 million at #35,000 weekly for 2 years.

Yes bro I agree with you.. Keep in mind that the mind set of a billionaire is very different from the ordinary folks.. That is why we have few billionaires and millionaires compare to the population of the world.. They do things that people see that are impossible do .. That is why they are few billionaires and millionaires. Everything is not for everybody . But with great rewards, comes a greater risk ..not risk o.. But greater risk
