All negotiable .....it's the ART OF THE DEAL

Hooters, can't loose

With a Viagra dispenser

I'll take a share in the meals I eat if it's a breakfast place. :jester:

The restaurant business is tough to own as it invovles a lot of hours and work not to mention all the competition.

Hooters is actually a great idea. I mean, for money making...

Loose for sure............................

Hooters would certainly decrease the crowding here. I'd predict within one year, it would result in 10% of the married men being divorced and sent packing, or restricted to home by their wives, 10% of the general male population dropping dead in the restaurant, and another 10% stroking out from too much Viagra purchased immediately after a trip to Hooters.

Have you ever been to a Hooters? Hooters features waitresses with tight tee shirts and short shorts. You see much more at the beach.

How about a Villages Hooters, though? Women residents of The Villages as waitresses in the tight tee shirts and short shorts. :22yikes:

Yikes! I never would have guessed $17,000.

Thanks to everyone for the replies. To tell the truth, I'm not really interested in starting a business of any kind. Those days are over. I will soon be 72 and I don't need the aggravation. If I had extra money to put at risk, I would sooner invest in some restaurant-chain on the New York stock exchange. But I don't even do that because I don't like investing in restaurants.

But it's fun to think about and I do have an idea that is similar to what someone mentioned above. Picture something like Subway but instead of building a sub you would build a soup. Soupway? There would be a couple of basic soups (broth) and you would tell the clerk what to add, like garbanzo beans or red beans, pasta, rice or barley etc.. It would be a one dish meal. The soup would not contain sodium but there would be salt- shakers on every table....so knock yourself out.

There you go, a spectacular million dollar franchise idea that anyone can start and become a household name - Soupway?
P.S. These soups would be vegan and therefore they would be healthy and relatively inexpensive.

I like hooters, the restaurant of course.

Never invest in anything that eats. (customers)

And here I was thinking this post was about how to cook these pretty beans! Guess we are sorry we missed the resturant!

You don't have to go to Gainesville to get sba counseling from SCORE. My husband is a SCORE counselor. He's affiliated with SCORE in Eustis, I believe, and also counsels around the country by phone. The Villages SCORE office is no longer there, but their counselors have hooked up with other chapters nearby.

That's not funny, buggyone:mad:
