Han Feizi meow meow can earn 10x as much in a month

[sclim]

5-6 k cash flow or net profit.

if cashflow then net profit about 2-3k only.
he needs to work about 7hrs per day for 28 days a month.

normal worker only work 44hrs week . 12-14 annual leave, 11 days public holidays, aws + bonnus
so 5-6 net only about 2.5k normal worker salary. if gross then only about 1.5k-2k

pdvl driver only change time for cash. more time throw in more cash. as there are cost over head of about 2k-3k.
driving too little can make the driver income go down down low.

got job go find other job better. pdvl mainly work for the benefits of leasing companies and platform.
some platform after becoming quasi monopoly bullys drivers with high commion and high block level to pay incentive. and if give incentive will take away money to fare to build market share. so net net pdvl are at losing end. their so called union or is there one? does not work enough to get more moeny for them.

He should have earned more if he is ownself boss not having to join siliconned grab business. Spore should bring back those 'cottage industry' of being own boss, run own business, manage own business. Why worship such big sillyconned grab stype of doing business?
High time govt should look into smaller than small SMEs.

[Bigbluedot]

I don't need to work income already 8k.
Good financial planning!

[Alice Alicia]

Can earn more just selling covered call on 1 lot of QQQ.

Depend on her attraction factor don't think need a month to get 50,60k. Their one time shot can be say charged at 1-5K (and there are buyers those atas ppl) so she do 10 times (note is times not days) can get 50K liao. Not surprising within a year can pay for a car + COE upfront all in cash. That is how strong their earning powers be.

[EvertonDiehard]

There are a lot of braggarts on HWZ EDMW who claim to earn $20K per month. This is as inflated as the number of forumers on HWZ and the number of subscribers of SPH newspapers.  LOL!

My senses talking to a lot of PHV drivers is that they simply quote their revenue as what they "earn". Amazingly the vast majority of them actually do not have a simple accounting system to keep track of their expenses and cannot even give a ball park figure of how much they actually profit a month even if they want to.

Some of them simply have a vague hazy notion of rent and petrol cost that is likely to be grossly underestimated anyway. A few months ago I did a detailed breakdown here of some guy who claims to be "earning" 11k a month by driving everyday for 12 hours without rest. Turns out his real earnings were less than $6k which he would most likely have gotten a better deal as a security guard with the same hours.

[EvertonDiehard]

I don't need to work income already 8k.
Good financial planning!

There are many management level employees drawing $8-$10K per month who only "work using their mouths".

Most PHV drivers are simple folks, so they believe their revenue is the same as their fixed income in their previous office job where they are paid in accordance to the number of hours spent on the job with medical and other benefits, including paid leave.

Yes, it is quite sad. The likes of Grab and Gojek are simply exploiting the knowledge gaps of these people and sometimes I believe conscientiously encourage this erroneous convolution between revenue and profit.

Most of  these full time PHV drivers will likely be shocked at how much lower they are making compared to the average Retail Assistant, Security Officer and Warehouse Assistant like for like.

Everything have a price it all depends on the provider. Shoot into the karchng, mouth, vv, face etc or hiong ger no need wear protection, bondage, golden shower etc just negotiate if price is right should be provided but you got monies or not?

grab driver really earn so much? how many hours they drive, is the kind of lifestyle sustainable? Lately just got into a grab from airport, they say can't even make 3K after less everything base on daily average 10-12hrs driving. So who is telling the real story? for many mindset, if something is that so good, mostly people don't share much. think about it....

Becoming a PHV driver is usually the last resort for the retrenched S'porean PME over 50.  Unfortunately, at that age, not many of us have the energy to drive for 11-12 hours.

if 50 or above still ok, just need to make some pocket money and kill time. many young grab driver around, some even drive BMW and MERC with the PHV sticker label! Just don't understand they drive to work or work to drive?

I met a few while taking PHVs to the airport these past 2 years.  Surprisingly, some of these relatively young 30 - 40 year old former PMEs related their sad tale of not being able to land another white collar job after more than 6 months to a year for their decision to drive full-time.

I think it is the same story as Grabfood delivery. There are some that earn peanuts and some really can earn a lot. It is about how pro-active they are in securing bookings and also work more days. Rest time of cuz is minimal and health take a hit. But if one is young no harm. One who is older will find it a much challenge becuz as one ages all reflexes go down etc.

usually after a certain period for adaptation, majority will goes into a state of 'comfort zone' and thinking of restarting all over again, most just chose to stay, it's human nature. That is why in the long run, we may loss out many local talent, because there is a lack of experience local to train the younger locals up and foreigners set in and train their people up (current situation). just imagine, a cleaner and a manager, which one can transfer a better surviving skill to their offspring.

from the horse mouth is the real story la.  like last time. one platform try to seduce driver by saying 6k income drive 6days 10 hrs a day.
not right.
maybe should band these platform totally and tell to employ as full time and part time driver with cpf payment like any other transport company better for drivers.
platform are making the unusal profit by taking away from taxi driver, and pdvl driver.  

there is room for a platform that only charges to recover cost and return the excess back to drivers and passengers accroding to service provided and far paid.  hope government can come up with the seed capital. most important is the human scheduler that will match jobs to drivers.  those throw into pool and allow free take one don;t really work.

[p1acebo]

Nice titties

[Sticw]

Can earn more just selling covered call on 1 lot of QQQ.

So basically you hold X amount of QQQ and then you write calls on it to sell for the premium and repeat it with the call options expiring each week or month?

[victortan]

but i think that is the gross, the time he show me was some 8k,, shd be the gross.

This reminds me of the pathetic state of the S'pore national football team and the S'pore Premier League. Foreign professional footballers were brought in to impart their skills and experience to their local teammates.  However, these imported players weren't much better than their S'porean counterparts owing to the modest budget of most clubs. Most of these foreign "talents" left for greener pastures after a short stay in the SPL. Today, the overall standard of both our national team and clubs have declined even further than when the S-League started its inaugural season.

I heard from a few of my former PME peers who turned to driving PHVs or cabs - following retrenchment in their 50s - that the physical transition from a desk bound job to driving full-time is very difficult.
