one day draw a graph of your capital, your expenditure and income, if you do that you will know uber was not designed for rental. You have spent more than you have gained and vehicles value will drop so drastically even when you want to cash out.

Do you always think before you quote people!!!
I advised the guy based on overworking his body and later asked him about what is unclear to me on his dashboard. How does that translate to calling him crazy?

Well, my long term plan or goal , well I mean this in the most respectful way . A good business man will not reveal is plan out in the open. But one thing I will tell you, is that I will continue doing uber till I can do it .. And I don't plan to do more than 5 cars on uber .. That has always been part of my goal .. In any business there is nothing sweet as daily cash flow, which uber has provider, now what I do with the cash flow from uber is another story on its own.... Car business is a headache for me . It ties down money and at times the profit margin is peanuts for me .. But I still do it ....

Methinks he's more interested in the consistent cash flow than ROI. Sadly. Most business men hardly do this, once money is coming in on a daily basis, they are comfortable.

It's a little more complicated. But 1 thing he fears most is negative comments about Ehailing

No need to draw graph.. Under old manager ,I lost money completely 100% , the only car that made money for me was the civic ,the landing cost of that car at the time, if I tell u u no go believe me .. That civic has made his money back for me ,and I just sold that few days for around 400k . The other cars was a total lost ,due to bad oil and manager and drivers etc ...but now so far so good, new drivers, new mechanic.. I had to basically do a 360 .. Things much better now ,by far much better.. Keep in mind my landing cost of my cars.. Have been pretty lucky. For obvious reasons I will not detail my landing cost.. But I will tell have been pretty lucky..... And I clearly see profit margin, my maintenance costs has gone down.. Am not complaining at all

I was going to type this. I have records from when I had four cars, and this is the plain truth.
One car I bought for 1.5m was sold for 900k after seven months.
I drive myself now and I make what two cars would deliver in a week. Rental na scam abeg

If someone like gazzuzz, who is a mechanic and only spend half of what most of us spend on car maintenance, could join the fence then people need to tell themselves some hard truth.

Xneg:


This post is childish and funny, when did gazzuzz become a yardstick for comparing success of a business? If he doesn't know how to do the business does not mean the business is bad. So because he chose to sit on the fence, others should follow, anyway what I've discovered is that the serious people making money on uber are not even on nairaland.

Frustrated advisers every where.

Superior complex worry all the old drivers, Mr we know it all.

You have been in the job for long, what's your achievements? You should actually advise yourself more.

Meanwhile.

Back to 25% Uber fee.

I dont know where I will be in 5years. I am taking it one step at a time, I didn't expect myself to be earning minimum of 20k weekly, and here I am, in 5years, I might be lucky to find something much better or still be with Uber as a fleet owner.

In life you never can tell, just keep working hard and plan, God on your side, the sky will be your limit.

Young man its obvious you are not open to friendly and mature advice.

No comment from now

Stealth100:


Calm your tits man, I used gazzuzz as an example that most people on here can relate with.
I've been doing business since I was 16, I know when to cash out and venture into something else.

Dru has a privilege of bringing in Tokunbo cars at 1m. That is not the reality of this uber business for majority of partners. I also agree with him that if you can't access Tokunbo cars at 1.4m max like he does, this business is not for you.

dru23:


I don't see any logical reason why anybody will buy 1.5m car for uber .. My landing cost for all my uber cars ,no fit reach 1.5m. The most was 1.4m if I can recall ..the reason was because I was new the business of buying cars from copart.. The location of the car was far from the port .. So the cost of transporting the car was $300 to the port, it was an 08 Elantra low miles less than 101k miles... other than that my landing cost has never been that high... At the beginning of uber forum years ago ,I stated that landing cost for any uber cars should not pass more than 1.2m .. Because u want to be able to recoup your money asap. And till today I discourage people from buying corolla for uber, too expensive. Than how long will it take u to recoup than . But my Nigerian people na only one road they see .. If it is not Toyota, it is not a car .. A lot fail to think outside the box ..
Now I use Honda civic, which makes my landing cost very ,very interesting.. But if you tell people to go for civic 03 to 05 .. They will tell this and that too low to the ground etc. After a while I just keep shut. You can't force anyone, those that will hear will hear .. .. At the end of it all landing cost plays a big role and that is the advantages I have.. I recall trying to link up with you and share ideas with you at one time.. I even call you when I was in naija to link up .. It seems I was forcing myself that time.. I quietly respect myself and kept it moving ... ..True story... those that will learn will learn, no one is too big or small .. But at the end of the day ,it's all love ...we keep pushing.....

Well I've achieved what you're just dreaming to achieve but without making so much noise like you. I have seen clearly that your mission here is just to promote uber so this is the last time I'm quoting you. Like my boss said, we know people like you, many have come and gone before you, you will soon join them.
