Not really la
"Some days" no matter how hard u try also cannot hit
then better to go hm rather than waste time rounding
I just try my very best and hope I could see at least a certain profit at the end of the day.
But I know many Ah Peks aim like to earn $100 profit before closing shop.
No way because if you do that, you may destroy your health if target is set too high.
Listen to your body. If you can tahan, then drive on. If not, better stop.
I usually stop before a certain hour as the body is used to this hour. Don't care what the daily takings are, just take the monthly figure and adjust strategy, etc, next month.
Just set a easily achievable target like bro Bowah $30 siew chair Liao!

He different because his main source of income is casket driving.
$30 too little for most people. Also, efficiency is higher if you drive more hours. Like one more hour after that is another $10-$25 compared to 3.5-6 hours to earn $30.
I aim day driving least $100 nett after cost, evening extra few hours as bonus if not tired
like that how to earn $7000 per month?
Set a realistic target, 4K-5K range per month good enough.

I never even hit that figure once (based on 12 hours day driving) on my best day multiply by 26.....and you have to do it consistently for 26 days....so I think it is not achievable..... that Malay guy that advertised about it made degree holders feel like switching over to taxi-driving.

Wow, 4k-5k is realistic? Tried to do. Can only achieve it if I drive 6 nights a week for at least 10 her/ shift. Damn seong.
Not worth sacrificing health, personal time, family bonding time.
For me, 3k+ is realistic driving 5 nights a week. Got weekends off, relax, spend time with family and exercise. Got time to think and reflect and find other sources of income.
$7k? Then you have no life. Just working like a robot. It is achieveable if you are young and sleep very little but no one can do it for the long term.
Want to say $7k is achieveable if you drive 16 hrs / day, every day, weekends more. But that is a sure way to an early death......

所以有些时候,
Not sure about others but having daily targets gives some thing to work towards while driving. Just a realistic target based on your abilities. Different days of the week different target. Main thing is to achieve the total weekly target.
No family, work so much for what? One day net earn $100, everyday go massage happy still got change.
Uberx, grabcar already affected our biz, now with the haze, got to set lower target liao.
Fewer pax on streets so depends more on calls.
Good luck, pals.
Driving taxi is a dead end job. A dog's life. Only drive if you have no choice. It is a point of no return. Very hard to recover. At first i didn't know and thought very easy. But after trying,it is really risky and crazy to earn that 3-4k a month. If you can touch 5-7k a month you have to sacrifice alot of things.
All in all, is a lousy job and life.
The only advantage is the freedom. Even give you free car to use, you got no energy to drive anymore.
