And we was discussing jobs and what not but what if we took 150-200k and threw it at a popular franchise business...


$150k maybe in 1998, today? You probably need closer to $1mil for most decent franchises.

Think about this, if you could start a franchise with $200k and hire a competent GM for $80k and make money then there wouldn't be many franchises available.

Starting a franchise blind takes a lot of hard work, a lot of luck, and a lot of money.

A large portion of the success from a franchise will depend on your labor, labor cost, and rent cost.

ETA: Moving to a new area you have no experience with and starting a NEW franchise to you seems like a really bad idea to me. It would be one thing to have experience with the franchise and then move to open a new one.
