I've been lyfting full time for 4 months now, I estimate my annualized income at around 45k, not 90k. It's still better than being a postdoc. (less hours, more gross pay)
Incidentally, at 4 months, I've already put on 30k miles, although ~25% of that is personal and of the remainder, 50% are profitable, 50% are not.
I drive a honda insight (35 mpg while lyfting) and including maintenance, I estimate operational costs to be around $0.30/mi, my average income floats between $1 and $1.5/mi. I also get a $0.55/mi federal tax income deduction, which means that about a third to a quarter of my income will not be taxable... I consider that to be a reward for having the foresight to purchase a hybrid years ago.
