How much do you earn?

[Sole]

Your point?

[Benicio del Toney]

My point if a guy is at a stage when he is taking conked out girls for fare then the black cab life isn't really for him.

 

For anyone with half a brain it ain't nearly as much work as that.

[Sole]

I'm not saying this guy is 100% right but he's a cabbie from a long line of cabbies

u and TF aren't tbf

Made bare mistakes in North and East London. Especially around Ilford.

Fam I already said my dad is a cabbie, I know what he does and how he is living.

 

I know other cabbies who have caked off this ting, end of the day a cab is just an opportunity, each man will use it differently.

 

 

Same way Roman Abramovich started with 1k from his inlaws, some man will complain it ain't enough some man will run with it and double up.

Fair play if ur dad is one missed that bit so he makes 100k a year?

Btw I think it was his ties with Boris Yeltsin that got him to the point he is now not that grand which actually got him making that real money.

[Skola]

What kind of perks do you permanent guys get?

Most I ever had when I was perm was a modest bonus

pension, sick pay, health plan, annual leave + bonus, staff allowance (free booze), professional development (funding for it courses + exams), staff discount

He ain't struggling, I know man that have 2/3 houses from this shit.

 

Point is Roman got to Boris Yeltsin from 1k, next man blowing that on horses.

[Sole]

That's not what I asked but I'll take that as a no.

No he didn't his mate was mates with boris big case of who u know not what u know got brought in BIG time.

[Afroman]

All cabbie moan.

Its a defensive strategy to either put you off the industry. To put you off ever considering it as a profession. (Ease the work flow) or its their default approach of striking a convo.

Agree with tony though certain man just cant flip regardless of how sweet the setup is.

[Fresh To Death]

im so shit at that

[Sinister]

It's true though.

 

Some man just look at shit and they know there's money to be made.

 

Some man work hard for it and make it go far.

 

Some man just can't be bothered and no matter how much you put it on a plate, they still complain they need more.

 

That's life.

[Kuffir]

jus to add to this black cab thing i was tlkin to one chauffeur the other day

 

he makes 2 bills a day doin ten hours and a section of his punters are them balling arab sheiks

 

they let this guy drive the two tone phantom (f*ck.) to and from work

 

and drop him a 6 bag tip for being their exclusive driver for their 2 month holiday in good old london city

 

 

Some man just look at sh*t and they know there's money to be made.

[JLovely]

Uncle used to be a chauffeur, worked for a company paid well, great tips blah blah blah. Then the guy who owned it ended up in prison for fraud of something.

Went to a different company and was the total opposite. Had the drivers classed as self employed, messing up their money etc.

But I suppose if he made his own connects and actually bought a car to chauffeur in he could've made a nice bit of money.

[Yuri]

That's not what I asked but I'll take that as a no.

No he didn't his mate was mates with boris big case of who u know not what u know got brought in BIG time.

Nah he was already a big face in moscow before he linked up with Berezovsky

[Yuri]

Agree with what Toney said.

Where certain people see a problem, others see opportunity

[Sole]

Maybe but he still got brought in not like he flipped that 1k into what he has now.

[Kuffir]

think thats exactly what he did stil

 

took that 1k and said Hmmm

[Yuri]

Maybe but he still got brought in not like he flipped that 1k into what he has now.

The guy was working a market stall in Moscow. Innovated, imported random shit.

Everybody gets "brought in" by somebody. You can't get anywhere without other people.

But where a lot of people in Russia in the 90s were panicking and trying to leave, certain guys saw the situation as money to be made

Anyway it's dumb to compare yourself to him, he's a mass murderer, not like he took control of russian aluminum through his good business connections

[Sole]

So which is it he flipped his in laws grand to what he had now or he got brought in??

Anyway that all flopped before he made it big, it was when he got the oil contracts and also he had balls don't get me wrong just saying he didn't flip the 1k into what he has now.

Kind of like saying I am where I am today from my first 20p of the tooth fairy

[Benicio del Toney]

Did you flip the 20p?

 

Roman was technically an orphan, so talking like he had a silver spoon is air.

 

He was given the 1k as a wedding present and ran with it, that was the start of his business career.

 

Nothing flopped he got lucky when he had money to invest in Yeltsin and was given cheap assets for his support.

 

Whether or not there were some unscrupulous dealings along the way is besides the point, his success begins with that 1k.

[Sole]

Smh no one said anything about silver spoon I said he had a link

Last bit confirms u don't know what ur talking about he didn't take that 1k and make a business with it that is now worth anything today so no he didn't flip it he worked in a factory after that and then started importing shit to make money until he got into the oil game.

Anyway going way of the topic and as yuri said a stupid comparison to make in the first place.
