I won't argue with u...more cars more riders...

ameristu:
Hello guys,

I am a newbie on this uber business, I find the rates very bad, like Victoria Island to Ejigbo for N1,300 after being in traffic for like 45 minutes with the Air conditioning on throughout the journey on top of that uber takes like NGN300 from the trip, don't forget you have spent like 2hrs 30 minutes for this ride.
How are you guys able to make money? Trips from Ikeja to Ojodu Berger is NGN600 and uber still takes like NGN200.
I am not understanding this business, can someone break it down for me?

UBER OR TAXIFY which one is the best to drive on?
UBER- 200+60/KM+11/MIN plus 1.2 to 1.8 boost at certain locations and time. UBER has more riders,fantastic app and others, 25% deduction on every trip...
TAXIFY-300+65/KM+9/MIN no boost but little incentives depending on the number of trips completed, taxify has fewer riders, app comes with a lot of issues...taxify is only good on weekends, u can wait for one hour at certain locations without request 15%
deduction on every trip...
AM A DRIVER ON BOTH PLATFORMS(UBER/TAXIFY)
IF I DRIVE ON UBER I WILL MAKE 100K TO 150K IN A WEEK, IF I DRIVE ON TAXIFY I WILL MAKE THE SAME RANGE

not mistake ooo. it is just the usual naija corruption. this is how a custom officer explained it to me. ever since government banned cars from entering the country through the land border, smugglers still bring in cars. now this is where it gets interesting, lets say a smuggler brings in a 2010 toyota camry through the land border, he simply contacts his custom insider at the long room, sort him some cash, i dont know how much. what they do is to substitute some one else's details of the same make of car that has paid complete duty and came in through the port. to get around this, as soon as you clear your car from the port, get a confirmation print out before you leave the port to avoid stories. may God save us in this country.

Please don't sell your car, use only the money you can afford to lose.

Before 2008 economy melt down, some sold off their four story building, some their estate, in order to buy share.
I know of one man who uses his property worth about 2 hundred million, with influence of his banker friend manipulated and borrowed 4 hundred million from the bank, within a shot period of time, the law of diminishing return set in, which brought about economy melt down in 2008. The share worth of what he bought with that 4 hundred million, was not up to 80 million naira, the man developed high blood pressure and died.

Because, bank came after him, when he fail to pay them as agreed, bank seized all his property, which
was not up to what he owes them, thereafter, his debt keep on increasing, due to debt service charge.

But has it been that he uses the money he can afford to lose, by now he will had recovered.

If one uses the investors mindset to approach the market, whether bull or bear, he or she will not check, because he/she will be on the safer side . Even when you borrow to invest, make sure you have other source to pay bank, should in case the investment goes bad.

Do not account for NEPA . . . while doing your audit; to avoid stories that touch,

If grid power comes along the way, that's a plus . . if it fails; you won't be affected.

You need solar charge controller, solar panels, solar panel mounting kit (if necessary), cables, and DC breakers.

makavele:
Assuming you only discharge your batteries to 50% everynight;
you would be consuming just about 2.4KwH
And you need at least 800Watts of panel power to recharge the battery back
in about 4 hours sunlight . . .
I mentioned 800 Watts because it would be downplayed to about 600W x 4 hrs= 2.4kwH . .

Thats just the basics . . if you wish to power some loads during the day; therefore you would need to add more panels;
depending on power requirement.

bigrovar:
Putting the cart before the house. Do a simple energy audit. How many appliance do you intend to power and for how long. This would allow you have a good estimate of your daily power consumption which will in turn make it clear how much energy you need generate from solar to keep your batteries in the green. My advise is to trim your consumption to about 960WH which is about 40% depth of discharge. Then get at least 4 250w solar panels. Design your system to run heavy loads like fridge/freezers only during day and leave night loads for lights, fans and TV. That way you can keep your nightly discharge lite and not have to worry about draining your batteries or filling them up the next morning. Less your discharge over night, less is required to top up = more energy available for running heavy loads while the sun is shinning. An Energy audit is the cheapest and most rewarding effort any potential solar off-grider needs to embark on.
