Earn Money Transporting Others
Most people will utilize this site to find a ride they need or to give a ride to others and make some money on a trip they plan to go on anyway.
But there's another possibility.
What if you were to transport others as a form of income?
Even on a part time basis?
An example will illustrate this idea.
Suppose you live in Miami, Florida, and a large University of Florida student population lives in South Florida who have a regular need to travel between Miami and the university in Gainesville, Florida.
The price of air fare for that route is between $600 and $780.
Pretty steep.
As of this writing, Greyhound does not even stop there so you can forget taking a bus.
Not good for the student who needs to get back to school or get back home.
If you charge $100 per passenger, and your vehicle holds 4 passengers, that's $400 in your pocket.
Then, if you offered rides from Gainesville to Miami, that's another $400.
Subtracting roughly $100 for gasoline, that leaves $700 you've made.
And if you were to offer this trip 5 days a week, that's $182,000/year.
This is a hypothetical scenario but as you can see, the potential income isn't too shabby!
