I signed up with a company yesterday got a call today for a job it’s hrs 20 drive for a pay $1400 … it’s like a part time gig and if I can do one a week I’m good. (My gas spent was $176.00 and my portion of the hotel bill $12) came to $1,236.00 at $60 a hr. I do this once a week and keep full time jobs ❤
@MesmilingBig What company did you sign up with and what kind of vehicle do you use? Also do you have commercial insurance or personal insurance for your vehicle?
@@born2doitright SCI and I’m on my fourth order for them. On one right now since I posted my first comment. So far $3500 this week.
@@born2doitright FYI SCI is a job board for most of these companies he mentioned.
@MesmilingBig What does SCI stand for? Interested in signing up! If they have a referral program, I can say you referred me if they do!
@@born2doitright I drive a Chevy Trax AWD, no commercial insurance as I’m a courier. I wish there was a referral program lol 😂 but it’s Sci courier is the full name. And they link to two of the companies he mentioned in this video.
Finally the truth! Thank you so much, this is the info I e been searching for.
Finally no fluff just a straight shooter
Nicely done! You deserve more subs.
Why thank you! Just need the yt algo to give me some more love so keep the comments and likes coming 😉
Great video, so many 'driving as contractor' youtubes don't mention insurance(!) which could bankrupt you if you get in a collision, or the vehicle is broken into, and BTW- don't forget self-employment tax in the USA on any income. LOOK before you leap in is always good advice.
It seems that the real money is in making videos about medical couriers
Thank you for your time great video
If you’re worried about Driving a lot of miles that will devalue your car on resale , then walk. You have to pay one way or another if you wanna make money.
I'm a fan now after watching your video. Thanks for your great video & content coverage, as well as your honest and unbiased opinion. You seem to be the only one doing this when it comes to this subject matter. Everyone else seem to be TH-cam talking heads with some kind of self promoting agenda or gimmick to get you to sign up to a get rich quick scheme of theirs. Thanks again, and keep up the great work.
I cant stand the year requirements for vehicles. Do these companies not realize not all cars are made the same? A 2006 Lexus IS250 runs better than a 2013 nissan maxima lmfao
AGREED!!!
I made it in two weeks! A lot of driving, but still enough free time to do other things.
I also wonder if it's possible in a huge city with hella traffic, car accidents & construction. Some of the delivery websites say they guarantee delivery by a certain time, which I don't think is possible in my big city during the day. They probably make the courier take the L in the case of a 7 car pile up that causes the trip to take 3 hours instead of 1. Same if they pay you by the mile & you get caught up in any kind of delay. It costs you. I'm still debating. I was thinking of investing in a sprinter, but it needs to be worth it.
Thanks for showing the real amount of income I can expect to make. You got yourself a sub.
Awesome, thank you! Appreciate the sub and I’m glad you found the vid valuable.
I keep hearing “side hustle”, but if you are working 36 hours a week it is definitely not a side hustle because very few people can work a 40 hour job plus a 36 hour side hustle.
I know! I work 40 HR a week and I’m looking at doing two addition 8 hour shifts per week on top of that. It’s enough to drive you insane…. Ugh never a break!
@@Msasha2727 We are just slaves to capitalist.
Thank you for vehicle insurance information, I will inquire about commercial insurance. Aedin
Another thing to factor in is, the more your on the road the more the odds increase you will get into an accident.
🎯
With Uber 15% and Lyft 85% of the times, I can make around 22 an hour, overnight in the Orlando area. Very little traffic. That´s the only reason I still prefer Rideshare over the others. I can´t stand traffic hours anymore. Sometimes, "more money" is not the answer to being comfortable with whatever you´re doing.
Right being comfortable with what you are doing
$300 a day is my goal right now. I don’t love all that driving but it’s definitely a tax write off in the US which can offset expenses in the long term.
Good luck with your goal! Do you know what steps you need to take to hit $300 day? Will it be a matter of driving more hours or is difficult finding enough suitable jobs?
Good point about the tax write off 🙂
With fuel and expenses, you are better off just getting a new skill and earn more with less responsibility
@@HelpANiggaOutbro less responsibility than pick up a package drive and drop it off???
@@dauryspIn the end the reality is…you wind up working like a dog and making 25 an hour if your lucky. No benefits. Honing a skill and increasing your value with a real job, gets you 40 hours a week, full benefits with a retirement match and paid vacation time. Invest in yourself!
@@tonyd4346 if you still believe the old system works yes ....I'm not against jobs but all I know is I've met NUMEROUS people who have been working for decades just to get fired, It feels like every couple years there's s a group of soon to be retirees who get screwed and have to work another 5 to 10 or so years before actually being able to retire..... Truthfully, I know people making good money right now in my area. I feel the need to take advantage of it and build something cuz at the end of the day my faith in the system of retirement and benefits and pensions is very low. Although I will say if done correctly, you can take advantage of that system to gain a skill and eventually do your own thing. You're right about that, but it's also once again going into business for yourself.
You can make 2500 a week if you drive 3500 miles a week 😆
You're correct in that one has to get the hours to make $2,500.00/week.. Aedin
im going to say all pharmacy around me share a driver 4 different brands with their labels on the car, they maintain the car together the driver said he gets 20$ an hour or 800 a week why would they pay independent delivery a higher price ?
You have to TSA certified
I dont think they make consistently that amount. They boast immediately after they have a great week to makw revenue from thr video
How can I determine the best apps for my town. Augusta, Ga
Yes it’s all lies mostly. If you only work one job 8 hours a day. But to make $2500 a week like I show on my channel you need to work 10-12 hour days
10-11hrs a, Day is Nothing especially if u start work early & if you're Honestly Making $10k a Month then in the South or South West that's a Good Living.
Too bad none of these are available in Canada.
I have actually made 10k a month as a medical courier.
Tell jeff
Sure
Sure dude
Past tense. Great memory.
If this is viable, then I may go for it. I make a little less than 2500 gross per week driving hazmat tanker 18 wheelers and work an average of 55-60 hours a week. It is beginning to not be worth it. I am willing to work 70 hrs a week. I just need a newer vehicle to do this I suppose.
Start a painting
Business and charge 10k a project. Better than 300/ day
@@Utubeisazzholol and who is gonna buy them?
@@hustlebustle3986 buy them? We’re not selling hormone blockers you’re selling a service. Permits, removal, disposal, labor, material, insurance, use of equipment, and inspections fees just to quote a project. You take your 300 while we take the 30,000
@noutheticcounseling5447 I drive tanker trucks as well…don’t make anywhere close to that…who do you work for?
@@buetifulkay12 Airgas in the Seattle area. But start looking at other Cryogenic companies, like Linde or Air Products. But there are smaller ones out there. Where do you live?
I tried crosstown courier... they were ok.... but the cost out weighed the money earned.... they didn't pay extra for the excessive gas prices
my neighbor is a uber driver. it's extra income. NOT a majority of his income. You are pretty much killing your car if you drive it 10-12 hours a day. Something has to give. He had to buy another car because he felt his personal car was giving up.
@@luigivincenz3843yep
Go share is not available in my area
Shoot, most of these companies don't even operate in the upper plains states where I live.
Same, but if you look on indeed there’s a bunch of other companies
I did this years ago, it was horrible. I drove from Memphis to Kansas City git paid like 300.00 no freight comi g back. Delivered in the city of Memphis, got paid like 18.00 to deliver 3-4 packages across town, took about 45 minutes. Go work a job making 15.00 an hour and you will make more than tbese driving scam jobs.
Plus saving up enough to replace your vehicle in 3 years !!!
If you're running this as a legit "business" (not a side hustle) ...its a "company" vehicle. It's wear and tear that you can write off.
You can pretty reliably put 500,000 miles on a Toyota Tacoma if you keep up on maintenance.
Can you make $200 a day just workin say 4 to 6 hours?
I like your Tele,
There are some hilariously bad takes in these comments, im curious where everyone is from. 10k a month is quite miserable to live through, but to act like its impossible is silly, I know a few people who make more than that. Im in NJ so im guessing my perspective is not reflective of what other people are seeing. There are definitely way too many channels promoting that kind of clickbait stuff though as if its easy to do, guaranteed to happen, and going to happen instantly though so I do appreciate this channel approaching it logically
I'm going to use a rental cargo van, is this acceptable?
A lease, yes. A rental, maybe. Some companies won’t give you dedicated routes with a rental because they don’t see the person as committed being that you can return that rental and walk away at any time. They view the person with an owned vehicle as more professional and serious about the business being that they have money tied up into it.
They pay $13/hr, so If you worked 80 hrs a week you could make $2500.
This literally sounds like driving uber!
Sounds like trucking lol
Goshares 6:24 want driver to pay 49.00 for backgroung check, other companies dont
Its not much but its wrong and i think it may be a scam .Do they just take your 49.00 and then stall you.? I wouldnt trust goshare.
In NYC is $150 for background check
Can you get a truck under an LLC and drive as a business expense and claim the gas on ur taxes ?
Duh bro come on now
U can also write off the whole truck because of depreciation
@@luisamateofrancisco7313 gotta love the tax codes
Gee, couldn't you find a better microphone?! Hahaha!!!
Do we have this in Africa?
These particular companies don’t operate in Africa, but there may be something similar. Head to Google and do some research. Good luck 🙂
Leave Africa 😊
$2500 a week, that's a good laugh.
Snake oil
You gotta get the jab for any of these. Thats the biggest drawback
I feel you. Not for All Med Express. It’s a good company.
Attention this channel is based in Australia
NOT USA!!!
All the wear and tear on the car, special insurance, gas prices and the value of your car going down quickly - no thanks!!!!!
Tires, too are so expensive. Only a desperate fool would do this.
What! You mean I can’t make $30,000 per month in my spare time as a medical courier!! They lied to me 🤣
Good video. I do this as a side hustle and grossed $25,000 last year. Ill probably gross $10,000 this year.
Great video. I started watching your videos last year as a beginner before giving stock and crypto market a trial. I was able to make $17,300 in one month with a capital of $4,000 trading with an experience expert who guided me through out my trading.
yeah investment is the key to sustaining your financial longevity but venturing into any legitimate Investment without a proper guidance of an expert can lead to a great loss too
Hello, I’m 37 and I am not worth much yet , please help me out. Bought my first house last month and I can't seem to make any other smart investment.
wanted to trade, but I got discouraged with the market price fluctuations
Can you recommend a guide for me?
I knew someone would mention Chrissy Barymoer, he is perfect in helping beginners grow. I would not recommend anyone else.
“TH-camrs “ 😂😂😂😂
More like modern-day self help gurus.
This is 2000% dead
Elaborate🤔
The main point of the video was to debunk the $2500 per week claims everyone on YT is making.
The conclusion I came to is that it may be viable for extra cash (I show how much drivers are still making in the vid), but $2500 per week isn’t likely.
If you do think it’s completely dead please do elaborate and share your experience as a driver. Reading about the experiences of people who have tried it is one of the best ways for everyone hear to learn.
What is it with all of these videos about medical delivery jobs? Why don’t you people get a skill and get a full time job? You are all trying to “get rich” by working the absolute minimum work…it doesn’t work that way.
Thats a pretty "interesting" take. Lemme ask you. Old school taxi drivers...were they just trying to get rich quick? How about limousine drivers? Uber? Lyft? Ppl who deliver mail? UPS? Amazon? All of these jobs involve driving and delivering something, whether it be goods or people. So why are medical couriers just looking to "get rich quick" in your opinion? Do any of those other jobs i mentioned require "skills"?
@@thechosen3332 it’s not a take, it’s a fact, the younger generation doesn’t want to work hard BUT they want to have big money. Back in the day, people drove taxis to supplement their income, now the drivers are usually immigrants to the country who have limited skills and or limited in their language skills. This does not apply to all of these people of course. Currently, I see multiple videos on social media TH-cam about driving/delivering and you can make “ a lot of money”. Your only skill is being able to drive basically and between uber grub hub etc many people have left the job market to do this type of work. You don’t have to have interactions with people like a typical job, these kids are socially retarded because most of their interactions with others is via texting, they don’t know how to have a normal face to face conversation. They don’t know how to handle when someone tells them what to do, they get offended. Trust me, Im a boss and I have to deal with these kids on a daily basis. They have the minds of a 5 year old in a 35 year old body. It’s not just the driving jobs, they are looking for any job that pays them “ millions” with the least amount of effort or responsibility. It’s called a side hustle I believe.
Frayt said they want $35 for “application fee” 🫢😑🫤
It’s not worth it
