Hi paul, and thank you for answering my question. I am aware of the tight market and impossible financing now days, but I am very eager to start my busines, besides jobs are too hard to come by now days also. I want to know everything I could possibly find out to be successful. I am still working on my business plan and I need to know what and how are my best possibilities to find financing. And how to seal the deal. I want my business plan to be thorough and solid going into this.. If i get that far. But I am a go for the gusto type person and don't want to fail. What takes a successful fast food restaurant?
