Not really la

"Some days" no matter how hard u try also cannot hit

then better to go hm rather than waste time rounding

Neutral-Thinker SG

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.

luckycabby SG

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......

<br Earning $7000 is not impossible, in fact, a partime MP already earn $16,000 per month as allowance. However, merely by doing Taxi driving, you might not achieve it, you need to do many other things inorder to achieve it. Remember SMART

Aiya, because I got do other jobs mah, so taxi become a kind of transport for me.

华兄弟！你认为SGD7,000是个天方夜谭是吗？？？

请问你有要好的兄弟或姐妹在开黑车吗？？？

很多事情，我们不知道就不要Jump to Conclusion！

俺Lakeview

的兄弟，至少6~7人，从CDG/SMRT/TC跳到黑车，到今天几年了，没有一个回来驾Standard Taxi。

其中有一个是俺的铁杆兄弟（当年他落难时，俺扶了他一把），俺对黑车多少懂一点。

所以有些时候，

bowah SG

Aiya, I said very clearly, driving taxi earning 7k is not impossible, I never said drive limo mah or black mah, then below I said, you need to do more or do other thing to achieve it,...smlj jump to conclusion, I know these blackie well, make money, but still ask for me to spent them roti prata…knn, so you tell me, where their earning go to??

AMTD SG

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.

bowah SG

True, as long as you drive, you can make a living, set achievable target, get yourself some slack especially so when times are bad, do less comparing with others, as comparing promote stress and pressure.

Then depend on yr background, as you age, try to drive lesser and set lower target, but the problem with many TDs like my chief and bro CT, they alway think they are young and energetic…then one day…boooOMMM. I hope they do not activate me to bring them.
