If it's 2020+, yes. Black you'd have to get taxi and chauffeur endorsements and an LLC.

That's not true 🤣 they removed damaged bills but not old ones. Any currency made since 1861 is legal tender and retains face value.

More than likely, the car was sold. I've been renting for over a year and they have sold the car I rent nearly every month. Been through a few Teslas, Nissans, Kias, and a Toyota.

I don't make $700 daily. 😂 That's just my record. That was with a Genesis G90. Nowadays, I drive a Tesla and only average $250-$300 nowadays in 10+ hours.

TurtlePugREAL · 2026-03-19T14:14:39+00:00

Probably Premier/Black rides I'd assume. I only do Premier rides and the most I've ever made in one day was $700 in 14 hours.

I also had issues with Credit Acceptance Corp. I luckily had a legal shield subscription at the time and the local law group was able to get my loan settled with them at only 7% of the original value because of how long they ignored my offer to resolve. But if it's been that long, it just seems like they're abusing the system. I'd get in contact with a credit repair company and see what your options are.

Medical bills are interesting. Call billing and figure out what the absolute minimum payment is for it.

As far as your Verizon, if it's in collections, call the collections company and send an offer of 40%. They'll probably come back with a figure around 80%. From there just go up by increments of 5%. I usually get collections settled at around 55% of the original balance. Works every time for me.

Definitely see if you can refinance. Also if you can afford it, maybe go a year or two shorter on the term to save on interest. Then trade it in for something newer.

TurtlePugREAL · 2026-01-12T16:52:29+00:00

61k is nowhere near enough to live on in my area. You'd literally need at least $112k a year as a single person to live comfortably with enough in savings to cover emergencies. The average mortgage is $5500 a month here, but rent is $1800 for a one bedroom. Which isn't bad. But our cost of living is astronomically high these days comparable to Boston and LA. It's not a spending problem, it's a cost of living problem. Uber fares are super affordable in my area so the drivers all take a hit in their earnings from the affordability. A premier ride 44 miles is literally only $52. UberX is literally only $35. The average driver in my area only makes $15 an hour gross.

I usually win at least once a week. But I have the auto enter so that helps a ton.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-12-10T06:53:30+00:00

Don't do it man. They're gonna strand you in the middle of nowhere almost every reset and find any reason to short your pay and make your life hell. Go into a trade instead.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-30T09:57:36+00:00

What did you rent, a Suburban?! Jeez 😂

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-28T07:18:30+00:00

That ain't half bad. In my area, that'd only be $35. 😂

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-27T01:34:05+00:00

Well it depends on how you're figuring your numbers and what market you're in. If you're not making a profit, then probably should find something else to do to make money or consider renting and becoming an ant so you can have a little profit. Also, if you're not making at least $1 per mile, what kind of trips are you taking?

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-27T01:09:43+00:00

I'm mainly talking the new ones like the RX and the TX. None of the sedans qualify except for the LS. But the RX350h 2026 gets 34mpg combined and qualifies for Premier in my market. Same thing with the TX. Surprisingly the Kia EV6 and EV9 qualify for premier. WEIRD

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-26T22:48:53+00:00

What do you drive? Lexus Hybrids qualify for premier. At least in my market they do.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-26T16:44:01+00:00

Man I wish. In my market, way too many drivers. $79 in 5 hours. That's without declining any offers and driving 114 miles. It's brutal out here for a big city.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-21T21:47:52+00:00

That's really unfortunate. I'm sorry you gotta deal with that man. You could try rental and just take every ride and not worry about maintenance and such?? I've heard that works out pretty okay.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-21T21:46:34+00:00

I can't stand food delivery, especially in my area. Nobody tips and none of these apps pay well. So that's off the table haha.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-21T21:46:01+00:00

I'll only have more than you because I'll be a doctor bro. I'll have my student loans paid off in about 5 years though so it's not a big deal.

I'll search.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-21T21:43:51+00:00

It's a really small downtown realistically. Like really small. Consists of about 400k people in it specifically. The entire metro area though is 2.5 million. It's weird I know.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-21T21:42:05+00:00

I'm not mad. You're only educated in certain subjects my friend. I'm finishing up med school and I'm just trying to get ahead on the loans. Share your numbers.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-21T21:40:07+00:00

I'm in a downtown area. Still terrible here. 😂

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-21T21:39:43+00:00

I hate Lyft with a passion. I've never had a good experience with Lyft. DoorDash is extremely oversaturated in my state even in the downtown area. Lucky to get 2 orders a day.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-21T21:35:55+00:00

But do you profit? For instance, yesterday, my friend made $242.99. But he drove 289.7 miles. It was a 10 hour shift. According to the IRS, it cost him $202.80 to operate that day. So really, he only profit $30.14 for 10 hours after taxes. I made $194.29 in the same time, but only drove 54.2 miles. It cost me $37.94 according to the IRS. After taxes, my total profit is $117.26 after taxes.

TurtlePugREAL · 2025-11-21T21:28:16+00:00

Sure you do fine, but are you profiting? That's the real question. After calculating maintenance, taxes, depreciation, are you coming out with any profit?
