Reacting to the post…

@Ayo_Mastermind: “Technically, you’ve made just about 17k profit. Net income is 30k. Fuel takes another 13k.”

@franksdonald: “From your estimate how much do you think you may have used to complete all 4 trips.”

@enricodaveed: “Its not worth it, thats why the cars of most bolt drivers make funny noises and sound like a friggin diesel generator. You barely have enough for fuel and to pay your bills. When your car breaks down you start to cut corners.”

@alexxitonurreo: “I don’t know if they paid you for this promo but it’s impossible to make this much in 3 hours, not even during peak hours. If you achieve it by some sort of miracle, you’ll be left with nothing less than 10k, after removing fuel and commission cost. Bolt is no longer profitable.”

@WritesNero: “dont forget the fact that theres is a signup bonus as well. Also the cost of fuel for riding for 4 hours. The fuel should be within 15 to 20k ir even more depending on the vehicle type.”

@OladapoOla1991: “Yes it’s possible… How much fuel did your car consume should be the big question here.”

@AkinfosileSola: “Fuel 15k, commission 6k, maintenance of car set aside 10k, feeding 2k. total 33k. Profit take home 7k. E no make sense at all.”

@anizzy01: “You’ll shouting fuel cost, u no go buy Oil?? Total quartz is 20k , tire 🛞 can go bad and u patch.”
