I cannot understand the putting all together in a basket.
AirBnB revenue is essentially "return on investment" and very little "labour" (you have paid the house/apartment/room you are offering, the maintenance, cleaning and laundry work is connected to just a trifling part of the income).
Uber, Lyft, and similar is half and half (you have to buy a car AND put hours of work in the service)
Fiver and similar is ONLY work.
- mrisoli 9y agoI think they observed the wrong people. AirBnB's supply comes from property owners, not hospitality employees(i.e. hotel workers). Uber, Lyft, Postmates and similar supply comes from driver and courier time spent on the platform, not cars, cars/bikes are suppliers tools, unlike Airbnb renters, the suppliers of cars are not necessarily the Uber drivers here, the comparison would be fairer if they compared fleet managers revenue to Airbnb property owners'.
