Owning your own McDonald's sounds great and rolls off the tongue quite well. Just the thought of answering with. "I own a McDonald's franchise." When someone asks what do you do is enough for you to tell everyone who will listen that you will have one someday...right?
Well have you recently studied what it would take to actually make your dreams of owning a McDonald's franchise come true? I did and it's not looking to good for me! Let's take a brief and unofficial look into the "REQUIREMENTS"is how the McDonald's Franchise site put it. Firstly it seems often asked, "What if I have my own property, can I build a new restaurant on it?" The quick answer is...H*** NO! Reason: McDonald's stated through their F&Q portion of the site, that they would gladly direct you towards their McDonald's Real Estate section. Reason being that they take pride in giving back to the community and wants to over-see the site choosing and development. Secondly it is stated that the total minimum and maximum cost will vary but at minimum of $750,000.00 of personal resources are needed as down payment to be considered. Resources must be non-borrowed and is exclusive of your personal property.
Are you still interested? Good let's continue! Thirdly they are more specific about how much of a down payment would be required. New Restaurant: 40% down payment of total cost. Existing Restaurant: 25% down payment of total cost. Finally they specify how much of a cut they will take. Service Fee: based on the restaurants sales performance, the going rate is 4% of monthly sales. Rent: Monthly based or percentage rent based on percentage of monthly sales. So if this was your way of getting rich just as it was thought of as being my way to financial freedom, let's all think again. You basically have to be a millionaire already in my opinion.

About 5 years ago I bought my first pair of Hey Day Sneakers. I love rocking/showing off my sneakers. With this in mind I bought my first 2 pair which were all white. One for showing off and the other for collecting. Well... I liked wearing them so much and I got so much feedback from them that I ended up wearing both pair. They are both worn and dirty now! I am still searching for the all whites!
Until then these will do! Do you remember this show? (Fraggle Rock) these are the Super Shift GOBO 30th Anniversary Edition! These are too fresh!

Purchase a set of personal hair clippers for 15.00-30.00, or splurge a bit on the professional grade clippers that cost $99.00 or so. While using the guards cut your hair as low and or as well as you can cut it. If you are talented enough and have design/artistic skills you can do exactly what the barbers have done for you.
Two trips to the barber will cost $26.00 per month.
Per year you will spend approximately $312.00 getting a professional hair-cut.
I've implemented this savings technique 5 years ago and I've saved approximately $1,560.00
It was a difficult choice but it is now a life-style and I'm happy I made it.
The Zirc combines the familiarity of a clock face with Nooka's intuitive concept of time. Reading like an analog watch, the 12 dots represent hours while the horizontal row counts minutes. The Zirc face rests on a mesh band and features an alarm mode as well as a chronograph mode.
