Heyyy God ehhh...
What's d insult in what I said? Aren't u d one dat said u work at certain times and that u r currently in the house till d next rush hour?

Now let's see who needs to go back to secondary school before u talk of GCE
25% of 20k is 5k.
I use max 4k fuel to gross 20k but let's just say 5k fuel is used.
So when u deduct 5k fuel and 5k commission from ur 20k gross u r left with 10k as Net in ur pocket.

I am disappointed I had to break down a simple thing like this for you to comprehend. And U have been incoherently arguing and dragging this matter. Hope u are okay sha. No worry all d money u lose for crypto u will recover it back cos when there is life there is hope.

I like the yardstick u used but u forgot to deduct feedings let say 2k. So ur net will be 8k not 10 provided all things went normal.

Bro quick come here come hustle, hustling here Na dodo and rice compared to Nigeria.

On sunday my colleague had migraine and called manager that he can’t make it.
We are 3 running 3shift , mine Na morning shift, manager stand in for afternoon shift guy cos he had emergency since friday, now night shift lady called in sick. (Manager face turned red cos he already begged me to do part of his shift that he can’t stay long).
Long and short of story I did my shift, half of Mgr and another full shift and I resumed early morning my normal shift looking sharp.
Manager called to check on me twice saying thank you and appreciating me, he asked me to take Monday off, if I want. . .
I just laughed and said to myself “ yesterday work Na rice, beans and plantain “ ( after all Na 7hrs sleep my body need grin)
Compare to driving all friday till 12pm and resume Saturday 4am moving club folks up and down Lagos just to net 100k week in week out.

I slept all night shift as per Naija guy ( e get one corner for server room wey camera no reach Na there I sleep)

I always sense it when BAZOO was always saying it's impossible week in week out that this BAZOO guy must have tried it before. I finally discovered when he share his story. So he's been in the business for 7yrs and someone that started yesterday was arguing with him? It is well

I know Innobet. He actually won that millions from an option called Any+ other. That is to say, the goals on that match must exceed 6 in whatever guise.

The last goal that gave the winning came at the 90+2 minute scored by Dejan Lovren. Innobet actually bought a Liverpool Jersey and Inscribe the name Dejan Lovren on it.

A few weeks later he staked 6m on a game and loss. The same people he gave massive giveaway to were the first to "Curse" him. After that game, he didn't bet again (That I know off).

I can confirm this. Inobets won over 40M from bet9ja.
He staked 100naira on different games.

It was a champions league match between Liverpool and dortmund I guess.

He dolled out over 700k as giveaway.

He's a big boy now, even bought a range rover from Nairaland grin.



Not that I'm supporting gambling, but I can confirm what he said.

It happened.

How ? I just don’t want to judge you. But you see me typing. I’m currently learning some skills too. Education is not cheap. Once you’re not financially buoyant and no sponsor just find skill and a job so that you could be able to catch up.


Many people have advice you on this platform but you go still do your own (bet9ja way).

To my own knowledge, the easiest job to get on the street today is Teacher. Start something boss don’t quit your school it’s good find a teacher or be a lesson teacher. Life generally is not easy on this side for anyone.

Most of people you quoted up there started from somewhere:-

Sleeps in Lekki to meet up target
Owners go collect cars many time
You go make savings this week, car go take everything next week.
Kid(s) go sick all your savings is gone.
Lastma, cbd, Vio, one way, brt lane go make you weep like a baby.
Rider go insult you.
Bolt go block you
Uber no get joy.
You go weak sotey alabukun and panadol no go work for you.
Wife go labour.
Family go need assistance
You go show love to area boys
Parking wahala
Them go still everything for your Corolla

BOSS THE LIST IS ENDLESS.
You’re a king just start something it’s never too late.

Hustle + School + skill and dream job NOT
School+begging+begging+quit when frustration comes in.

I wish you the best
You nailed it. No more no less

Maybe Abeokuta alone, cos i was in ogun state even three weeks ago , it didn’t pickup!

It suprises me that Redeem camp is not big enough to recognize orders from Bolt. Cos norma normal,even if they don’t operate in ogun much, redeem camp should recieve choking orders na lol

That's true. I was in Redeem two weeks ago and I have to drive to mowe before the message disappeared and was able to go online

Lol, I was almost going into depression or running mental at some point but this faceless thread became my distraction.

Let me give little scenario
I served (Nysc) in Lagos , got a job with multinational 2yrs after my service. Was sent on a project outside Nigeria for 3yrs. I was earning in dollars (estacodes) and all.
Fast forward to 2017/2018 Exxon Mobil took over the coy and all oil rigs and turned every staff to contractors with shitty pay (not less than 500k) and option of changing to permanent staff later... the rest is history.

First Uber driving : ( I had 1.6m cash in my account) I joined the hustle cos I thought you will earn 350k easily without stress.

2nd time: corona happened and we couldn’t go offshore again, we working from home. No more offshore allowance.
We are 9 in my team the first 3 guys dt travelled out in 2017 are now big boys. As in biggest boys
Long story short I’m the 8th person that left Nigeria after wasting my time trying to hustle and get good job cos I like Nigeria.

The only way I was encouraging myself was coming to laugh and catch cruise on this thread cos I can’t kee myself. When my former colleagues are driving 2020 cars and paying mortgage of mansion abroad, I’m her dragging with olosho/Lastma or fake alert 2000 naira.

Let me stop here for now,
But I will say it again any graduate in the age range of 25 - 38yrs driving Uber is wasting away precious time, energy and potentials.

I know it’s not easy cos I tasted of it.
BUT I will rather you do it as side hustle than be relaxed in it.



Congratulations Bro but the Ants drivers must not see the bolded

Sorry for what you experienced.
I believe pickup at the airport have been spoken about on this thread severally.

You could have asked the rider to go to the car park rather than risking it.

Never make a pickup anywhere around the airport except the car parks.

The rider self fit be agent

Honestly, some times I think back at some of the things I read here and can't seem to place which claim is more unbelievable than the other.

1) Found a way to drive around Lagos without encountering traffic.
2) Found a way to drive defensively such that his car never saw any scratch/dent all year round.
3) Found a magic word to tell riders so they wouldn't waste his time before starting trip.
4) Found a way to avoid Lastma/Firs/Vio/Police wahala all year round while driving on bolt.
5) Learnt the time and place most bolt riders go to, so that he can always position to get long trips on surge.
6) Made so much money from Uber and decided to upgrade from Toyota Matrix to Corrola 2013/2016.
7) Rented a house of over 1.2 milion per annum in chevvy view estate so he can always set destination trips against traffic. (Every bolt driver gets only 2 destination trips per day but our man's own was unlimited)

Our almighty cheerful. Not your average driver!!! grin grin grin

Are these the strategies you learned in the group Teli or through mail? Asking for friends ni o

Is like we will start asking people to state if they are Drivers ,
riders or
partners/car owner.
To avoid confusion.
I’m not even surprised unlike one driver dt lied to us that he bought 2016 Corolla for bolt after his matrix packed up.
Same guy lied dt he lives in lekki but alas he lives in iyana ipaja.
