or you share the car with another uber driver. i know a few and they make decent money. one of them is on vacation right now across the ocean. nice vacation too. another driver i know shares a honda accord with someone else so it's used almost 24 hour a day. he's got his own car but doesn't want to use it.
so you pay this first car on time, raise your credit and get the next car on better terms. not like leasing a 20 year old NYC taxi for $2000 a month which is what cab drivers are forced to do
with all the miles they drive and the time on the app their car and smartphone plan might as well be free. if i was an uber driver i'd get the top AT&T or Verizon plan to share with my family and write it off since it's used for Uber. and pay $200 a year to a good accountant and he will make sure they barely pay any taxes and qualify for government aid
NYC most cabs need a medallion which costs around $500,000 or more at current prices. for uber you take a 6 week TL&C class and get your special plates for your own car.
if you don't have the money to buy a medallion or no one will lend you the money for one then you have to lease a car with a medallion which is close to $100 per shift
does that include leasing the taxi? in NYC most medallions are owned by a few millionaires who lease them to garages who put them on cars and then lease the cars to sharecropper drivers who pay so much money that they don't have much left after a shift. and worse off the rush hour is when shift change happens so a lot of taxi drivers miss out on a lot of income since they have to bring back their cars back to the garages
great deal considering a lot of service workers pay for their car out of pocket. Same goes for a smartphone and the service which is another write off for uber drivers
this is why you make her use a case or tell her to use a broken phone until it's paid off. there is no way i would be paying that if one of my kids broke their phone.
like if someone were to hit my car i can snap a location/date tagged photo after the event for evidence so the perp can't lie their way out of it. and my phone keeps a record of where i go, just in case the cops arrest me for something i didn't do like happened to a lot of people back in the good old days
troll, they should keep the show going for decades like General Hospital or One Life to Live or any other daytime soap where they recycle the plot lines every few years
send AMC lots and lots of money and watch the show with your mouth open and slobber dripping off your lips as you get surprised like you're supposed to so you keep watching and sending them more money. and don't forget to play the games and buy the trinkets
microsoft used to bundle their own versions of the shitty shareware people used to write back in the 90's. they would wait for it to be popular and then code in their own version into the next version of windows. saved a lot of people money
i've checked them out and seems Lexus and Acura give you a passenger electronic seat as well as seat memory settings for different people. and a different engine program for more power all for that $10,000 premium
i have a honda CR-V and can't tell the difference between it and the Acura RSX
it's $30 for an oil change for my Honda CR-V. WTF is there to service on a $50,000 car that's supposed to have top notch reliability and no major service requirements until 100,000 miles?
it's like when best buy tries to sell you that awesome TV and then the warranty because the TV is now so bad it will break all the time
yeah, ok
i know people with a Lexus RX and it's nothing more than a Camry/Avalon station wagon that's higher off the ground. my in laws have a late model one and the Nav system sucks compared to smartphones. the seats aren't that much better than my Honda.
it's nothing more than an upsell and a way to get money out of old people who want to think they accomplished something and treat themselves
underneath the buzzwords and the snobby sales experience it's still a Toyota for a $10,000 premium over a regular Toyota
but that is how they make your money, their money
Slashdot Mirror
sounds like you've never driven a honda. it's not like a GM or a chrysler
a good accountant will leave you with more money and the IRS with less money in a way where the IRS won't pursue it because it's too costly for them

you can buy your own car to use on uber. leasing is easier when you do your taxes

you can't steal something someone doesn't have yet
his idea still there too. in his head along with the bits and code he wrote
how is apple stealing his app? the app is still there
the mega corp's information wants to be free. the little guy's info wants to be his
Netflix, HBO Now and any other subscription service out there that bills via the app store and apple payments
