Yea I had uber driver tell me he cleared 100k maybe 3 or 4 years ago. Back then uber only took a 15% i think. They also paid crazy incentives to lure drives. Like earn 1-2k for x amount of rides in a certain period. Now that they have a sufficient amount of drivers they drastically cut the incentives. Google the protests in India by their drivers after incentive pay was cut. I think most drivers were making more from incentives than fares.
