When I tell you that Taxi Drivers make good money, I'm not talking about being Robert Deniro in the movie Taxi Driver. Sorry to break it to you, but that movie likely didn't pay super well. It was the 70s after all. I'm talking about the classic job of taxi driver. It's a profession as old as cars themselves, and even older if you're talking about taxi drivers who used to drive horse and buggies, though would you call them taxi drivers?
Believe it or not, even with competition from ride sharing services and from the foreboding threat of self driving cars, taxi drivers can make six figures. They have to work very hard to make that six figures, but you can't say that for every job. Some jobs simply will never make you six figures no matter how hard you work.
