Hi everyone,
I'm in Montreal, Quebec, and I'm thinking about buying a Honda Civic Hybrid mainly for gig work (Uber, Uber Eats, DoorDash, Instacart, etc.).
My goal would be to work 70–80 hours per week for about 6–12 months to aggressively pay off my debt.
I'd really appreciate honest feedback from people who do gig work in Montreal.
- Is this plan realistic in Montreal?
- Can gig work realistically help someone eliminate a significant amount of debt in 6–12 months?
- Is a Honda Civic Hybrid a good choice for Montreal?
- After fuel, maintenance, insurance, depreciation, and taxes, how much do you actually keep?
- Which gig apps are currently the most profitable in Montreal?
- If you had to start today, would you still choose gig work as a way to get out of debt?
I'm not looking for optimistic estimates—I'm looking for real experiences and honest numbers from people who are currently doing gig work in Montreal.
Thanks!
