A lot of these "gig economy" jobs are not really ways to make money. They'll let you tread water --you'll pay your car payment and gas, but suffer later in depreciation, insurances, taxes, and overhead.
I do not recommend anyone does this (unless it's very clearly profitable).
That’s why I also said “bike” and “while I’d continue searching for better”.
In my area tons of people deliver food via bicycle. Very little overhead there. I would do that in a heartbeat if I were strapped for cash. Pretty sure I could clear at least $50 net a day, which would be plenty to not live off a friend.

In most of America, that's not feasible whatsoever.
