Cepat Kaya SK1M existed in the early 80's. My mentor since I was still in school got so excited to hear and see it with his own eyes and ears that his whole squad of police officers from senior top dogs to judges were getting rich in no time where their monies invested doubled in months. After that, the rest is Sejarah Hari Ini with thier monies goes missing in action. Then the SK1M evolve into other get rich scheme like gold. History repeated itself with many greedy fools got burnt in recent years.  cry.gif

Just 1 hour of driving after a hard days's night, he died due to stroke attack possibility. He just in his forties.

Dat's why I said no long drive under stress. It is a "Starling Effect" where the rubber would break when you try to bend the rules too much. Get down to boogie with exercise on your feet to hip hop around. The least you could do is to shake it up like those mahjong players. to avoid getting DVT which is blood clot which cause heart failures and stroke. hmm.gif

So why do you drive, even for part time?

So far no one shares the reason why they drive. Is it because everyone is doing it for money and for money only?

Haven't you all learned from previous paid employments, what happens if you don't like the job you do but you still do it anyway because of the money it promised? In this case, according to many of you, Grab don't even pay as well as a typical SME.

So why still drive?
As mentioned in my previous posts, I realized that and I'll make changes for when calculating March. Either way, apparently my cost in January is lower than I thought, which is great news

Haven’t you at least have the courtesy to read what I wrote? It is self explanatory.

Some time and somewhere in this thread I wrote how do you guys cope with long hours of driving but there was forgotten with no replies or response though it is of utmost importance because healthy is priceless. hmm.gif

When the car is down and out, you can still get another one to drive on but when your body is weaken , it may be a full stop. shocking.gif

As for me, i will walk my doggie when I come back home after couple hours of driving. And I would try to jump into the pool while my doggie wait for me to do a couple of lap and immersing into the bottom. Then a hot shower where I feel like driving again. How about you guys? confused.gif

A few of them lost thier jobs in the O & G industry and got to drive to raise fund for thier family. However there is one who is driving brand new BMW picking hotties in the name of raising charity fund. If he goes clubbing, his wife would be looking high and low for him. But since he said he is doing a good cause picking riders, his wife was being CONvinced.  devil.gif

no offense... but if your sources are those who bangau at klia.. these are precisely the kind of drivers who are likely to be on the low performing end of the curve, earning wise once you factor in the time they spend twiddling their thumbs waiting for a job there. unless they cheat.

btw... not everyone is built the same way. some have higher tolerance for waiting at traffic jams etc. some find the stress of grab is much much less then working at the office or worrying about staying afloat running a business. btw you can get a stroke frm the stress of been in an office or doing business too.

as for driving for long hours... again... express bus drivers and long distance truckers drive even longer shifts.

no one is saying grab is nirvana. but it's not the worst job out there either. you need to look at both sides of the coin.

My sauces of information comes from the real up close and personal interaction where I lepak in the KLIA chatterfield. I would take a pee and puff with the drivers and at the NGV gas station where there is long Q of taxi fellas. Many of them would asked me how to and what the cost is to convert thier Teks1M into private use since mine was a spot on ex taxi without the neon signage.  And when riders said they are also ex Grabbers or ex Ubermen recounting thier experience. Some still driving to supplement thier incomes. Just 1 would bragged about thousands he is making made driving zig zag siang malam. I asked him if he ever thought of being in the medical risks the way he drives without proper rest and exercise in peanut jams. Just by holding his pee, he may gets kidney stones. Then there is one middle age guy who is driving with signs of stroke risks. I asked him about it and he said he suffered stroke attack a year back. Told him to seek the medical advice from his consulting doctor whether he should continue driving part time as his condition would risk with more serious of brain haemorrhage. I gave him the parting advice as a rider  if he needs to drive as part time, the least he could do is to get down and boogie with exercise his feet in every hour or two of driving. After all, he cannot afford to be sick and down with future stroke attack.  console.gif 

One Malay chap was the most detailed of them all. He would jot down in his daily journal every single sens of fares and tips and subtract all those cost from servicing, tyres pancit to petrol. After 1 year, he gave up ehailing where he is a private chauffer to ferry a Datuk son to school. In just 6 hours on the job and just probably 1 hour of driving, he is earning 80% as a Grabbie full time siang malam. And he makes much more where he goes to be a Burger Man at the stall near his home.  He works 5 days a week in both of his jobs.  cool2.gif

anything related to it just dump it, just for filing for tax purpose.

The billing is postpaid of a bundle package, tied up for 2 years, RM98 + service tax/GST per month.

actually for toll expenses for u to return back home is part and parcel of the business, as long it is related to the business and u able to justify to the officer, it can be deductible. Let say u fetch customer to Genting and empty car back to Klang Valley, the toll charges of RM6 is deductible.

Of course i won't dump all in to claim, maybe partial of it. If u got details one like statement listing what toll u use then it is much better.

Just now i forgot road tax & insurance, so nett is about RM4.5k. Just for your information touch n go card has 10 years expiry period, just now scrolling on mine and notice Aug 2019 going to be expire.

For tax purposes on business which use private property, all the expenses will only take accounts 70%. E.g. If monthly payment for car is 1000, can only deduct rm700 as expenses.

I know Krol aka Bro Khai since 2009, because we used to be in the same insurance agency group before he parted his own way in 2014 due to not being promoted as a unit manager and if one thing I can talk confidently talk about him is that he is very particular when it comes to tax. It rubbed on him off our manager.

I knew his struggles, I saw it with my very own eyes and it makes me happy that he has finally found his own peace 😊
