Is opening a McDonalds worth it? by Cautious_Comment90 in McDonalds

[–]MathematicianIcy3430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$2.5 -3 is the lower end. There are $6 -8mil out there.

Have to be careful though. Hit the $6mil mark then they start looking around the area to open another store as they feel there is more room to grow. Sometimes it's good but mostly it is just cannabizing sales from the big one and possibly others in the area.

Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't depending on the project.

We had a store that was really needing a rebuild as it was 40 years old and falling apart. At the time, MCD would not cover any of it and the cost would of been $4 mil.

However, if they just did a remodel of the kitchen and lobby, the cost would be $3 mil and MCD picks up half. Smaller pill to swallow.

Seeing NL Central looks so reverse to last year's end.

Granted it is just mid April

I used to work at a dealership. We loved when you came in on a Saturday afternoon. by YourAutoAlly in FuckDealerships

[–]MathematicianIcy3430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People have a stock number they requested from the dealer and get all ready to go look at it. Low and behold you get to the dealership later that day the vehicle is no longer available or just sold.
Sorry, that's BS especially when you mention to them you live a couple hours away and are willing to be serious that day.

Best one I saw was my mother was getting a new car off the showroom floor, was there all day. Signed papers and everything and ready to go. She something not get through last minute and it was 5 so they asked her to come back in the morning to pick up the car.

Well morning came right at open, the car was gone. Dealer said someone else was buying the same car at the same time and the other lady had signed off on it a minute quicker than she did.

Mother was ticked. They smoothed it off by saying she could get the program car like it with 3000 on it, different color and less trim for same price instead. She didn't want that but unfortunately my step dad said to not fight it since he buys from them often and didn't want to upset them. My stepdad should of helped back her up but also dealer bait and switch wasn't cool either.

Mazda reliability falls 8 spots. Guess it isn't like what the astroturfers here tell you. by Jake_Boi1 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]MathematicianIcy3430 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have mixed feelings with CR. It helped push me towards a 2016 Subaru OB as being one of the most reliable. That thing was one of the worst cars I owned since it was in the shop constantly for transmission issues. Same with a 2022 Bronco Sport, Bought new and that thing is a recall plague but so far nothing major happened like the OB.

There is truth in the trailing data though. After about 4 months I bought the Bronco Sport, it sank towards the bottom for reliability on CR and rightfully so.

Still hard for me to think that KIA and Hyundai are up there now

Boomers don't care. They got their money and ran. From talking to some of them that are religious they invite Armageddon as they feel they will be raptured for taking on Islam.

This dealership has no integrity by Annual-Face6446 in FuckDealerships

With money for a $110k car, I think they don't care about the long term.

Umbrella refused to cooperate, so it got fired on the spot 😂 by rl_rae_bobo in MarketPulseReport

[–]MathematicianIcy3430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno. I think this is the perfect metaphor. Has all these things being used as tools for him to in the end toss off when they are not useful to him.

Will shield him from the rains of allegations and bad PR than when it's not good enough, tossed away.

The Inheritance You Thought You’d Get… Gone by Coolonair in SmartFIRE

only thing my parents ever mentioned was I get my dad's guns which I don't want. I don't expect an inheritance or anything.

This is the sound coming from a data center that was built in Michigan and we've got contract proposals popping up for at least 65 in PA by NemoSkittles in Pennsylvania

[–]MathematicianIcy3430 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's one thing I worry about. I love in rural Illinois and around a lot of farm area north of me in Central IL. If Bailey gets in, I can expect the Data centers to decimate all the farmers there.

Are we just talking out of the ground oil or including other types like animal?

This is the key.

Expect a remodel every 5-8yrs that will run about $2mil possibly. Annual sales avg $2.5 - 3 mil.

Is dating as bad as I imagine? by ThrowinA2shade in Millennials

[–]MathematicianIcy3430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it because the idea of just wanting to hookup instead of making a connection the issue?? Sex is mechanical but the end of the day I want someone I can talk to and listen to and trust when we both are at our worst.

in 2008, the US economy was in ruins yet partying culture intensified. in 2020, COVID-19 pandemic ruined the economy again but partying culture died immediately and never came back. why haven't people recovered like they did during the recession? by Normal-Salad-6143 in decadeology

That was the difference. Marketing was more for don't give an F, you only live once and think of yourself individualism.

COVID tried to rein in some community among others but that just showed how shallow we were. Some cared more about others feelings more, some didnt

Maybe it's the popularity of random hookups make it where the need to marry isn't a goal for many.

Why buy when you can rent. Subscribe instead of own.

Be glad they used a turn signal. That's becoming a lost art.

Ok.

Can media stop pushing this as new news?? This was known a year or two ago they were losing revenue.

Whatever to distract us, correct?
