I GROSS $1,000 TO $1400 A WEEK DOING LYFT, AMA.
- Thread starter MR. SNIFLES
- Start date
I always wonder how
for less than a cab
the driver and the company make money
Let's say driver gets half of $7. I wouldn't cross the street to make $3.50 let alone drive somewhere and fukc around with drunk people
Then it seems like you if you make $3.50 every 20 min..
That's like $10 per hour
AND YOU STILL GOTTA BACK THE COSTS OUT
I'm positive it works some kind of way cause it's huge, but it never made sense to me

What do you net
I NET ABOUT 700 FROM LYFT. I OVER PAY FOR TAXES AND THEN WORK ON REDUCING MY LIABILITY FOR THE YEAR. I PUT 30% ASIDE AND TRY TO PUSH MY TAX LIABILITY AS CLOSE TO 15% AS I CAN. I GOT DOWN TO 15% LAST YEAR. I TOOK THE 15% LEFT OVER AND BOUGHT THE CAR I DO LYFT IN NOW. I SOLD MY OTHER CAR FOR 500 LESS THAN WHAT I PAID FOR IT. MY MAINTENANCE ALMOST PAYS ITSELF. COSTO FOR TIRES, WALMART FOR OIL CHANGES. I PAY ABOUT 2K TOTAL A YEAR FOR MAINTENANCE. I NEVER KEEP A CAR BEYOND 150K MILES.
I BROWSE CRAIGSLIST TO FIND GOOD FREE FURNITURE AND I GO PICK IT UP AND RESELL IT. I JUST COPPED A SMALL BUILDING IN DETROIT TO STORE THINGS. ANYTHING I DON'T MOVE IN A MONTH GETS DONATED TO SALVATION ARMY. THEY COME PICK IT UP AND I GET A TAX WRITE OFF.
I GOT LIKE 5 HUSTLES GOING RIGHT NOW. WORKING ON 6 AND 7.

Are those rideshare companies in the black yet? Seems like they have to subsidize the cost. Prices be low af
PLAY THE CROWD. I JUST GO OFF THE PASSENGER. I PREFER SMALL TALK. THAT'S HOW I KEEP MY EAR TO WHAT'S GOING ON. 90% OF DOING LYFT IS KNOWING WHERE TO BE AND WHEN. WHEN I PICK UP FACTORY WORKERS I ASKING ABOUT WORK AND IF THEY ARE REGULAR USERS. AND I NOTE THE TIME AND PLACE FOR LATER.
STRIPPERS NEVER LIVE NEAR THE BAR THEY STRIP AT. WATCH FOR SHIFT CHANGES AT LARGE FACTORIES. BE IN THE SUBURBS AT 3AM FOR THE 4:30 AIRPORT DEPARTURES. ESPECIALLY ON SUNDAY.
THOSE FARES ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN IN DETROIT. YOU HAVE TO POSITION YOURSELF SO THAT THE MONEY PITS ARE AVOIDED. I'LL TAKE A FEW HERE AND THERE BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE TO GET AROUND. BUT IF YOU'RE GOING TO A BAD AREA, SHUT THE APP OFF AFTER THAT RIDE. JUST DEAD HEAD BACK TO A GOOD SPOT.

U done it for a full year yet? How much you owe after those 1099s dropped?
2.90 PLUS 20%
A LOT OF DRIVERS COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS. THIS IS HOW LYFT SUBSIDIZES THEIR SHENANIGANS. IF YOU DRIVE FULL TIME YOU GET SOME OF THIS MONEY BACK VIA BONUS. PART TIMERS DON'T REALLY SEE THIS.
THIS WEEK 88 RIDES GIVES $167 BONUS FOR ME. THAT'S LIKE 1.90ISH PER RIDE. THAT'S KINDA LOW THIS WEEK. USUALLY 88 RIDES GIVES $197. THAT'S LIKE 2.25ISH.

VARIES WILDLY FROM MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. I OWED 9K THE FIRST YEAR BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW THE GAME. LAST YEAR I ONLY PAID ABOUT 7.5K AFTER DEDUCTIONS. I GOT IT DOWN TO ABOUT 15% OF MY INCOME FOR LYFT.
THIS YEAR IS GOING TO BE KINDA FUNKY BECAUSE I GOT MULTIPLE THINGS GOING ON AND I'M NOT SURE HOW IT TIES TOGETHER. I HIRED A CPA TO HELP ME THIS YEAR.
