I'm 27, long term NEET and never learnt how to drive. I plan to take out a big chunk of my family money and get professional driving instruction, get my license and buy a vehicle and rent a parking space.
Realistically, will I be able to make a living doing on demand app-based work such as driving for Uber, instacart and the like? There are also many other websites and apps for on demand work, such as taskrabbit, which I can only take advantage of if I am readily mobile. I know its not a career, but sure is more freedom than being an office drone or retail/food service wagecuck.
Depends on where you live sometimes, a cousin of mine (currently an uber driver) lives in LA and gets a lot of drunk, rich people that like to gamble, and usually they take him gambling and give him money and shit, then pay him a huge ass tip at the end because they're drunk as fuck and don't know what they're doing. Good luck anon

I live in the same place, so maybe you can enlighten me more. Main concern would be
>are they biased against new drivers? No they check how long I have been driving for, or just driving record and when I last renewed my lisence?
>would it help to invest in a higher quality car or SUV if I plan on using it to drive rich people around and transport small deliveries?
Also, one thought that occurred to me is that if I actually go through with this, I could try to service remote areas where only rich people live and not many are familiar with, like Palisades highlands, Calabasas and Bel Air Hills. Is this a niche waiting to be filled, or is it so obvious that their are hundreds of Uber drivers cruising those areas waiting for a gig, or more likely so, people be so rick they just call a chauffeured sedan.

I mean, all people are different, some might care, some might not. Also, I'm not too much of an Uber expert, so I can't help you on that second part, but for the most part, if you have a license and a decent amount of experience, I don't think they'll care.
>would it help to invest in a higher quality car or SUV if I plan on using it to drive rich people around and transport small deliveries?
They probably won't care, if they wanted a high quality car, they could just hire some chauffeured sedan like you said or some shit, at the most, have a decent car, but I don't think they'll care too much (it's just one car ride), just keep it nice and neat.
