๐๐ฐ WEEKLY MONEY SCORECARD
๐ “WHAT DELIVERY ACTUALLY PAID THIS WEEK!”
๐ต $1,545 EARNED! BUT HOW MUCH DID THE DRIVER REALLY KEEP? ๐ณ
A delivery driver recently shared their weekly numbers after working Amazon Flex and DoorDash in a Kia Sportage Hybrid.
And this is exactly why we need to stop looking at earnings screenshots without doing the math!
๐ THE REAL WEEKLY BREAKDOWN
๐ October 5โ11, 2026
๐ฐ Total earnings: Approximately $1,545
๐ Total miles: Almost 800 miles
โฑ๏ธ Hours worked: 54.5 hours
โฝ Gas purchased: $207.66
๐ต Gross per mile: About $1.93
๐ Gross per hour: About $28.35
๐ธ Remaining after gas purchases: $1,337.34
๐ Hourly earnings after gas purchases: About $24.54
โ ๏ธ BUT THAT’S NOT THE FINAL PROFIT!
We still need to account for:
๐ง Maintenance and repairs
๐ Tire wear
๐ Vehicle depreciation
๐งพ Taxes and other business expenses
And here’s the craziest part…
The driver reported earning almost the SAME amount two weeks earlier while working approximately 44 hours instead of 54.5!
That’s about TEN EXTRA HOURS for nearly the same money! ๐คฏ
๐ก THE LESSON?
A $1,500 week might look fantastic on Facebook, but it doesn’t tell you whether the business is actually profitable.
If you’re working Flex, Spark, Lyft, DoorDash, or multiple apps, track each separately.
โ Which app paid the most?
โ Which app produced the best dollars per mile?
โ Which app earned the most per actual working hour?
โ How much did you keep after vehicle expenses?
**Because working MORE hours doesn’t automatically mean making MORE money.**
