I had the vainest rider today...

The PUP was at a condo. The rider messaged me to come to Block A. Block A was just behind the guard house, but the rider was reluctant to walk a few more steps.

After waited for a few minutes, the rider came. She was a mapren lady spotting fiery red hair. Her dress was kinda unusual, but I do not know how to describe it.

She took selfie before getting into my car

She took the front seat. Immediately she asked me to lower the air-cond temperature, as "Malaysia is very hot". I asked her where she came from. She replied, "Nigeria."

She asked to borrow my phone charger. I had a power bank, so I let her used it.

Then, she lowered the car window, and look at herself in the rear view mirror

Damn, I wish they can track from serverside and ban them directly. Seems not lol.

Mama Pren is like that.
When they start to talk friendly to you, you got to be ready something not right. They gonna start request you to do this do that, detour, wait for friends, etc.

Review back the trip and press the red face icon.

How much an average of 6 hours drive daily earn per.month?

Grab try to play phycological warfare or mind game to scare off mod apps players...lol

EDITED: forgot to count credit top up

I started driving Jan 1, so I can share a bit of recent math with you

My initial goal was to drive 20 days in a month, each day target revenue RM 150 within 6 hours, so that should give me RM3k revenue in a month

Since I'm doing full Auto Accept, commission is 20%, so 3k minus 20% = RM2.4k

Average each day driving distance in 6 hours will be 220KM (including during trip and when not on trip). My car petrol consumption is about RM50+- for 320KM+-, depends on current petrol price also, but let's just call it RM50 for 320KM.

220KM times 20 days = 4400KM a month
4400KM divided by 320KM = 13.75 (lets just call it 14 times of put petrol)
14 times RM50 = RM700

TnG reload, since toll fee will be collected from passenger so it cancels itself out, so I don't count it.

I plan to set aside some money for rainy days and maintenance, so let's call it RM1k a month

So far the theoretical math works out to be:

Revenue = 3k
Cost for commission = 600
Cost for petrol = 700
Planned savings for rainy days or fixes = 1k

Net income = 3k minus 2.3k = RM 700

But of course real world math a bit different for example, I'm actually getting RM170 to RM190 total fares a day on 6 to 7 hours of driving, maintaining below 230KM driving distance a day. Petrol price also cheaper now.

Bonus and cancellation fee will not be deducted for commission.

So yeah, hopefully it's a good enough reference for you

ADDITIONAL INFO:
- We don't have car loans or housing loan
- My wife earns way more than me
- I quit my job because it took too much time away from spending with her, so doing Grab is perfect as I can spend more time with her at our choosing, and still not be totally broke ass
- If any decent job opportunity come along, I'll still go for it, because employer contribution for EPF is nothing to scoff at

RM 700 / 20 days / 6 hours = RM 5.84/ hour !

Better to just stay home, take care of kids or learn to cook and please your wife. Don't let her go! She is a rare gem that loves you for you

Hahaha real world math will be different, for example, I might not keep the whole 1K every month for car service/maintenance and of course the revenue stated here doesn't include bonus and cancellation fee, which sometimes add up to RM20 a day

I guess we'll find out at the end of January, how the actual finance looks like for doing Grab 6 hours ish a day and 20 days a month

Yes, I'm lucky to have such a great wife so yeah, the main goal of doing Grab full time now, is spend more time with her, and not be totally broke / relying on savings or cash out on investments

I guess Grab is really just a side hustle, even if I end up doing it full time. Maybe I'll spend time on learning a different industry been checking out automotive courses. Maybe learn to fix car, or fix aircon. Something different and more flexible than office job

So now every morning wake up at 6:30AM, just do things with wife, like exercise, watch shows/movies, cook, house chores, then when she goes to work I'll start doing Grab. Her working hour starts after noon, so that's significantly more time spent together compare to when we both are doing office jobs with conflicting schedule

lol.....how to remove those using modded app? these ppl are not paying a lot of money for nothing ok , the money are not pay just for the app but for the modded phone.....unless Grab find the root of the problem which is.....hell i'm not gonna tell lol

I just love to drive and kill time as it also kills boredom. Normally I will drive 3-4 hours per day depends on mood. I still hold a full time flexi job. Driving 3 to 4 hours can take in gross about 45-100 enough to cover my petrol, maintenance and some yam cha pocket money. Kuantan is a nice place to drive, no jam easy but most of the fare is below rm10. I tend to stay in one place like Uni campus grabbing around for rm4 fare, can get easily get about 10-15 rides. all below 4km max.

By looking at it, u earning about RM1000 after all the expenses

RM1000 / 120 hrs = RM8.3 per hr

That is just at minimum wages level leh

Come join telegram group

We have brothers inside just divorced few weeks ago

We might need you to be the consellor inside

Haha true

Thanks for your calculation.
We can ignore cancellation fee, but bonus can be substantial.
It's hard to forecast bonus amount. Maybe we can assume an average equal to 15% of fare?

If you have good business idea, maybe we can work together

An office job or customer support jobs pay better with good hours but if you are happy to drive then that's great too. You should consider driving a taxi as you have chosen to be a driver as a career. You will earn way more than doing what you are doing for Grab. Its the same concept with much more advantage. The calculation is correct, you never factor in insurance, new regulation etc.
