My friend thinks he can drive at night for them and on the weekends and make good money. I have used Uber and Lyft and they seem okay.

My friend thinks he can drive around, smoke concentrate and have some good times plus help riders or passemgers score some weed.

Well considering you pay for your own gas and you must have full coverage insurance, IMO it is definitely not worth it.

Uber charges what, 5$ for let's say a 3 mile drive and that doesn't include the mileage it takes for the driver to actually get to you.

Then, there is of course the fee that uber is going to take, so just a random guess, I'd say the driver would maybe get 3$ out of that 5.

After insurance, gas, and mileage put on your car that must be less than 10 years old, I would have to say it is definiltey not worth it, if anything your going to be losing money in the long term.

Lol, If his looking for a job to earn quite abit, tell him to do a crash course in domestic electrics, or if he thinks his good with his hands, plastering is the way forward.

Ha. I think he was egging me on and bullshitting me. Not really a great idea to drive for Uber/Lyft, drive around and get high then try to sell some weed.

Depends what class you do mate, the executive class make a killing lol.
You just need a Audi A5 for example.


There's like 4 classes, the standard uber make peanuts, still enough to run a house etc....


Executive, upur in the big money, for example a standard uber would make 20 of a long journey. And a executive would make around 45 dollars,

If you got a licence, the limits are endless, becoming a driver for Amazan, or a well paid courier company.


Selling weed, it's like saying how many red lights can I run past before I get caught.

Ha. From the stuff I have read online, Uber seems to be struggling as a long term company. Most iof this stuff is created by people in Silicon Valley with the goal to cash out when they go public. I think the Uber CEO quit not that long ago due to sexual harassment or something.

I have used Lyft a few times and was very pleased. I am not pimping for Lyft but the app worked flawlessly on my phone. It shows you exactly where the car-driver are.
