How much do you think that pays? I don't know about that. The franchise business is not the profit centers they once were. The world of $.99 big macs, free toys in every kids meal, stores on every corner, and forcing to provide health bene's just to get some decent menial labor has made it a very marginalized business. I would be shocked if a franchisee at a fast food restaurant would gross more than a $100k in take home pay from one store- maybe a bit more if he pockets all his annual distribution of net income. I will say if any might yield a better result it would be Chic-Fil-A. They've managed to not erode profit margins as much, although the Sunday thing must hurt.To make money now you must own multiple stores, and receive exclusivity agreements. The other problem with Chic-Fil-A is they're very strict about not allowing franchisees to get to much exclusivity in a given market and they actually cap the number of stores you can own (the CFA policy is they want the owner to be able to spend like 20% of the operating hours in the store)- trick, make your wife part owner.He'll probably come out well ahead, but that's only if he doesn't think he'll ever become a HC. Although, the rigors of a fast food owner are no less daunting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to Webster's, an Entrepreneur is defined as, "One who undertakes to start and conduct an enterprise or business, usually assuming full control and risk."Owning an established franchise is a little different.Whoever making up words by adding ism to the end of them may qualify this instead: en·tre·pre·neur·ial·ism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
