If I Uber-ed or Lyft-ed full time in Miami, would I be able to afford rent for a studio/1BD close to the downtown Miami and eat well?I lost my job tech six months ago, won't get unemployment no more and feel like I don't want to wait around hoping to get a job.

If I lost my job, I would not come to Miami. Miami is expensive and I would not say the job market for good paying jobs is good here.

OP I definitely would not be trying to live in downtown Miami on what you can make doing Lyft and Uber. I would move down there if you had a more stable and dependable income but it would be hard to do on what you would make from Lyft and Uber.

Wish you find a good role soon OP. Agree with the other comments. Do you live in Miami already? If you are and have a rent to pay, Id do Uber or Lyft. Otherwise Id try to find a cheaper place to live. This is crazy expensive. Keeping your expenses as low as possible will give you peace of mind, release pressure when driving and give you a better sleep. You will find a next career opportunity soon! Keep the search 💪🏽
