I was listening to an episode of CBC's Outfront and the tittle of the show was "Drive Into Darkness" with revolved around a man detailing his short career as a driver for an escort service. Essentially the chronology of how he got into it, some anecdotes about the job, the impact on his family life and ultimately his arrest on a sting resulting in his being charged with "Living Off The Avails".

One fact he repeated was that he was making around $1000 - $1500 a week in straight cash. Considering he still had his day job I found myself questioning his argument that he got into the business because he needed a little extra cash, $50k - $75k a year in no tax cash is a fairly substantial pay day on its own so how much money did he really need.

Secondly does anyone know if this amount is realistic? Why would anyone be a cabby if that kind of money was available?

Anyone have any info to confirm or deny?
 
They generally make between $30-50 a call depending upon the location. If this guy was making the kind of money he claims to have made that must be one hell of a busy agency.

at 30 bucks a call he is making 30 to fifty calls a week. if he works five days a week- then six to ten calls a night.
