Earning a few bucks on the side with Uber is great because you get to set your own hours and it’s flexible. Plus, it pays decently well for the work involved—according to Salary.com, Uber drivers in
Florida
make a median annual wage of $35,802 based on data from actual Uber drivers.
Keep in mind that this figure doesn’t take into account taxes, maintenance, gas, or other expenses that may lower your total income.
If you want to maximize the amount you make during an Uber session, follow these tips:
  • Purchase
    affordable rideshare insurance
    so you’re not paying more than you need to.
  • Always be nice and courteous to passengers to improve your tips.
  • Help passengers with baggage to earn tips.
  • Drive during peak times.
  • Use a car that gets superb mileage if you own more than one.
