Loading ...I did for 25 years and everybody profited ..from MY investment ,my Hard work to an extent more than I did. The Franchisor got 16% of every dollar that walked in the door.The Marketing department structured every advertisement so the Gross went up instead of the Profit (their 16% ) instead of my net.The Government took 4.5 % of my Gross sales as sales tax,on my investment .It cost me $25,000 of investment to created every JOB I created (25)of them.Employees never even said thank you for creating the job they got ! The Franchisor lied to me about how the Rent was constructed in violation of the agreement. The Labor department told me to Prove I wasent discriminating under penalty of Law when I dident hire the idiots they sent down from thier unemployment rolls to test me . I was subject to 160 different TAXES to simply run a COFFEE and Donut shop …Paid Real Estate TAXES ,inventory Taxes ,even taxes on the equipment every year ,and had TAX FORM that read “This is where you report CAPITAL not otherwise Taxed” …I had an accountant to pay who enforced the tax laws ,but I had to pay him .! It ran 7 days a week 24 hours a day! ..Now I only work when the Market is open….and NO weekends !
NOW is simply buy GOLD stocks and only pay taxes when I take a profit ! NO freeloaders on my investment.! You still want to run a Coffee Shop ?
