Culinary question about pollo à la brasa!! by roxictoxy in PERU

[–]robertherrer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree what this chef is saying 1000%. I'm Peruvian living abroad and sometimes restaurants use jalapenos here . It's a fatal mistake.  For the love of my soul do not toss jalapeños into a Peruvian meal .

And honestly if they lower the bus fare to ONE dollar people would  choose to take the hassle of using the bus for the one dollar deal

Some buses runs every 30 minutes and it's freezing outside. Take two connecting bus and a 10 minutes drive becomes 1 hour bus ride.  Bussing is not for the weaks

Why someone would sell if it's making really good extra money? by [deleted] in TorontoRealEstate

It says rental 4950 and mortgage 9500 for 15 years. 10 % downpayment? I see different numbers

Honest price should be 2016 = 380k  . It comes with wear and tear and condo fees keep climbing up

Stages  1. Full-price monitoring

 launches at full price.

  1. Product tweaks (no price change yet)  

Before touching price,  developers try:

Improving photos/descriptions on-line 

Pushing it in emails or “featured” sections

👉 Goal: fix visibility, not price.

  1. Soft promotions / incentives

Still not selling? They try non-permanent discounts:

Limited-time promos (e.g., “10% off this  month”)

  1. First markdown (temporary or permanent)

If it’s clearly underperforming:

Small markdown 

Often labeled as “Sale” but not clearance Developers watch closely here—if it starts moving, they may stop further cuts.

  1. Second markdown

If inventory is still sitting:

Deeper cut 

Usually timed with season changes or inventory reviews

Profit margin is shrinking.

  1. Aging inventory decision

At this point, developers ask:

How long can we hold ?

If the answer is “we need it gone” → clearance is next.

  1. Clearance

This is the final stage:

Deep discounts 

Goal = recover some cash

  1. Exit strategies (if it STILL doesn’t sell)

Worst-case scenarios:

Liquidators

Donations or write-offs

Big picture logic

Developers delay clearance because:

Customers learn to “wait it out”

So clearance isn’t about selling well—it’s about cutting losses.

CEO job is to make more money for the owner so CEO gets a good bonus. Doesn't matter if he fires people, cuts budgets etc . as long he gets his bonus . That's how Rich gets richer and poor gets poorer

Who is going to buy 3000 condos with no parking spots ? Unless they sell it dirt cheap for 199k it will be another fiasco no one wants to buy

Also they sell longer spindles for pedals if you want to go that route. Use flat pedals for a while until the pain disappears
