Aint about the stroke (that’s what she said)... it’s about the tires, lights, mirrors and horn.

Yeah go with the Honda or look at the WR’s for super fun. I don’t know what NH single track looks like, so I can’t make a call on what you plan on getting into.

With that attitude things like Facebook and Apple wouldn't exist.

Subway? Well let's see, the food is kind of sheit. The price point is relatively low.
You pay what, like 75k upfront to them for a franchise fee so you're in the hole that. Then you have to give up like 5% or something like that every month from your total revenue. Also use only the suppliers they authorize so you get gouged that way as well. This is pretty much applicable to any franchise, not just subway.

Anyways if you do the math, you're basically paying all this money to be at the store running it 24/7 to make minimum wage or something stupid like that.

So try again, the food business is insanely tough as it is.

There is an inflection point where price differences like that start to not matter to me.

The quiznos thang was a joke. Its my understanding that purchasing a Quiznos is a great way to get a 60hr+/wk "career" that will make you 50k/year or sumpin stoopid like that.

also quiznos is ass

dont git yer hopes up too high on classes happenin. Also , if there is any shot at it happenin. Aint no shot at booking a lot of clients @ 50/hr. Lots o smart people are going to be trying to do the same, while not many are going to have 50 per to spend imo.

I don't think Quiznos exists anymore. It was even worse than Subway. Basically a total ponzi like scam.

There are (or were) 2 in the city I live just outside of. He mothballed them in January because the food sucks, the prices are too high, they looked like pigs had rolled around in there, and nobody likes it...

... except Mrs. Breeze. Oh well.

<------knows a little about franchises

(its a little more complicated-and you can make some decent money-but you can also punt large sums-like everything in life-it depends)

DO NOT buy a subway(or quiznos)

maybe you could do cell phone repair?

What about opening a strip club that also sells foot longs? Two services under one roof seems like the way to go.

Jesus. That's good to know. I'd personally never own a business that sells pork, but I was curious.

I guess I could try and offer a delivery service that's cheaper than GrubHub and DoorDash.

I know jack **** about phone repair. If I did, I wouldn't have a cracked screen lol. I heard Five Guys are insanely easy to buy and operate though, maybe I'll do that .

RE: Strip clubs as a business.

First issue will always be the business license and zoning. Unless you can buy out an existing owner, good luck getting that cleared at a decent location in most cities. And if you are noob the chance is 0% as someone with stroke will either block you or get in line in front of you for the license. You are dealing with the sketchiest of the sketchy in that industry.

Sunshine, if I was your arch nemesis you would know it.

Thought I was gonna get in a throw down with a Quiznos owner back in 2006. His place was always out of what they needed for the advertised sandwich I liked. One day I said something about how that was even possible when the place was always empty. He told me to GTFO. Words were exchanged. I told him I would stop by again when they were going out of business.
I lied. Didn't think it would be only 2 weeks later and missed it.

Pretty sure $50 is above market rate for most of that other than *maybe* calculus in the right area. Too many online options which are decent enough at much lower cost.

Pretty sure this is what 67o thinks of when he imagines Skippy and his identical looking cousin riding into town to **** with his bike shop:
