Nah its $600 to get the license, classes, and drug tests. All you need is to pass the test after that. The medallion to own a cab is the one for $600,000. That s to own your own cab, operate yourself, and you don t have to share it with anyone. Nobody can tell you what to do that way.
Try something lower than $600,000. Like a few hundreds of dollars to get a hack license. A taxi medallion, which is a badge that is affixed to the hood of the taxi, will cost you up to $2000 or more.I hope this information is very helpful.Good luck
