They will attack and shut you up immediately.

Posting earnings will invite criminals, government spies, bla bla bla.

Gentlelife50 post earning of 28k to mislead the public. You want people to believe uber driving job is terrible, but you have been driving uber for more than 2 years 6months. You feed ur family with it, u pay house rent.

Nobody force anybody into uber, if u feel the job is bad quit and go use ur certificate to earn a living

dapotemi:


I have drove b4, and am still DRIVING. You guys need to ALWAYS understand that there many SILENT READER here, maybe even more that the everyday commenter sef

Babadee1900:

Even if you dash the car to the driver, some will always be broke....a lot of people live beyond their means and can't manage money......few years ago when the business was really booming with bonuses etc ..a lot of drivers were making money left and right ... I caution them to put money aside for slow days, some listen and others didnt.. And some drivers were smart enough to get their own car....... ehailing is a good business if you are discpline and smart.. The point is to make your money fast and move on to something else.....


And to those that are still complaining about uber, most of you have your certificate, you can always dust it off and look for job you went to school for .. Enough with the complain, uber and co has provided jobs for so many youths old and young alike. This is something your government has failed you .. Take it up with the government.... Until than I encourage all of you to stop talking and complaining and to start doing....

Oga allow them to complain in peace.

I [b]don't see anything wrong with posting earnings [/b]at all .. As a matter of fact due to some drivers posting their earnings encourage me to not give up the business. The driverpreneur guy has been doing a wonderful job encouraging people.. We need people to come out and contribute in which ever they can.....


I know I have contributed greatly, I was the one that encourage investors to try using Honda civic, it got to a point that people call the civic dru23 ....So people that want to post their earnings both low and high plz do ...

dapotemi:


Attack ke? That one na stock in trade for here nau. Another one says go and drive, pls I drive sir, and its my own car and I also have another one on the platform that I gave out CHEAPLY, read my old post.
One is saying they don't want to mislead investor so they won't think there is so much money in ehailing. Do drivers actually care about investor? I can also argue that there alot of driver looking for car to drive, so if you don't want investors to buy cars,how will those driver get vehicles? Abi na only you one dey feed make hunger kill the rest. There is a REASON behind all this don't post earning, if you post earning na insult, TELL US THE REASON?
Bros, I think it's high time you leave gentlelife alone. PLS. Any bridge wey u Don cross for life, you don't necessarily need to set it on fire. PLS.

northbird:


i still wonder why most of you still claim Bolt's money as part of your income .

Who r you trying to impress?

jpworld:


They have made money and move on to the next level, or they tired of coming here, they should post it to encourage any driver that has been discouraged.

deedee44:


Face the fact, posting dashboards does more harm than good. Potential investors will think that's what they take home whereas it's around half of what is posted that is actually yours if you drive your own car, way less than that if you're on rentals.

Many people have lost money and their jobs investing in uber hoping to take home 150k weekly based on the false earnings you encourage people to keep posting.

If you have the time to post earnings then make sure you post it everyday, not only when you're lucky to make more than normal, and also have the time to do a breakdown of expenses that came with the earnings and let people know how much you truly made

dapotemi:
Drivers always get MAD when they see others posting or showing their dashboard. They always claim what they posted is their gross and not Net, yes we know that but to be honest, you guys made some of believe that is not the only reason . There is something you don't want others to know about this hussle, there is something you want to keep HIDING. If it's about GROSS and NET, it shouldn't be a big deal, if you know the net just do the calculation and give us the net whenever you see dashboard. Insulting people you don't know just because they post their dashboard is the height of it, if you don't like it, some of us love it, it motivate us, and we want to keep seeing it. Am sure a lot of people on this forum wants to see it too, it's a public forum abi. That govt is viewing this thread bla bla bla, that one na mumu talk, you guys here are less than one percent of total uber driver out there and you think govt will rely on info from less than one percent to take decision and form policy, that sound low. IF YOU WANT TO POST DASHBOARD,PLS POST, IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, WAKA PASS, IF YOU THINK THE FIGURE IS WRONG (GROSS), PLS GIVE US THE RIGHT (NET) FIGURE, NOBODY SHOULD BE INTIMIDATED. All of us no go always PASS THE SAME DIRECTION FOR THIS HUSSLE. Nobody be FOOL for here.

gen2lpat:
Is there Uber or taxify in Owerri?

deedee44:

Are they complaining to you?

nwizu042:


Shei Na only government drivers de face abi?
What about the miscreants way de rob drivers because drivers de cash out 150 k weekly.
You wan de post earnings for public platform in a country like Nigeria?
You go learn finally.
If you de find motivation, join drivers whatsapp or telegram group, you go see enough..
Make we de apply sense sometimes..
No just de use the head drive alone.

Crvrider:


Boss, I beg let this one slide by like say you no see am before this argument go take another 17pages. However i am yet to see any big deal with people posting earnings but some here dey see am like one big thing. Go on Forbes and you'll see the worth of almost anyone you throw a search on whether na gross or net. Like you've rightly said, if they don't like it, waka pass.

toomush:


Best reply, those drivers would have probably moved onto better things, I dont know that some people are planning on driving for years. God forbid I do that to myself. I'm exiting soon

toomush:


Exactly my brother, a driver told me one certain time that why they discourage other drivers from posting their dashboard is to make it look less lucrative for newbies, so they are discouraged to join(thereby increasing the number of drivers on the road, more competition)

God sees the heart. Many thanks bros.



Just about 4days after my brother. He's a faithful God




Will be off tomorrow, don't know what time will be ok with you.

dapotemi:



Agree baba, make I enter my corner back. I just like the thread tho, been following from day one. Some of us got our MOTIVATION to start driving from here and we still do, albeit occasionally and when there is need to fulfil. That you don't like something and you want to force it in my throat,mbanu.
Due to the nature of my job and location, I meet at least 10 drivers every day, they don't even know NL, not to talk of a thread like this, so we need to chill. Don't feel too important.

toomush:



Well said my brother. Initially I wanted to give this my car out on rental but my former colleague(he manages about 12 cars on uber/bolt) told me not to try it, that I wont recognize my car after a month, that they will wreck it for me and move on.


So far nobody has given a strong reason on why drivers shouldn't post their earnings Is there something that I dont know off

I posted my dashboard, so I can get their reaction

dru23:


Me for example I was able to diversify my investment into other things, and I couldn't do it without the help of uber experince.... Uber is not bad business, it is tough no doubt, but nothing good comes easy...

And right from time I encourage drivers, partner etc . You need a passive income or something that brings in daily or weekly cash .. This is what ehailing does ,and also for any investors coming into the business.. Make sure you do ur findings.


And for future investors reading this, don't go and buy 2007 up cars .. You will have your self to blame, monitor your investment and be hands on ... Dont just give your keys out like that without proper investigation of whom you giving out to ....This is a tough business be hands on and also Honda civic 03 to 05 is an ideal car for business. I can't help or safe everybody, every Aboki with his own kettle from now on ......

It is only unfair to generalize occurence based on the report of just one personality.

It extremely hard to drive on Lagos roads without......

jahmarsh:
Please everyone, i will like to ask. Do you advise Volkswagen Jetta 2007 or 2006 for this business? Nigerian used. Please kindly advise.
I don't really know much about the car. In performance and durability with fuel consumption, is it good?

OJURONGBE1:



Unless you're not putting in the hours that rentals and HP drivers does on a daily.
Volkswagen, Ford & Chevrolet are high maintenance cars.
My life has never been miserable like it was when i drove Ford Mondeo on e hailing.
The only advantage this sort of car gives: is the comfy ride for passengers, less harassment from estate securities and the assurance that the car is safe wherever you park ( Lagos island ,Onikan & Yaba excluded).
