    Give me a bit, but I'll put together an account and give you guys routing numbers. We are probably gonna need a cool 1.5 mil to get this thing up and running.

    Our choices are as follows:

    15k from 100 people for 1% ownership.
    7.5k from 200 people for .5% ownership.

    Get your funds in order and I will get the accounts ready. You can send it to me and I'll get it started for us.

    Don't need it to a hooters, could just be a Cyclonefanatic themed bar. Dedicated computer lounge to get loaded and play haxball.

    To be honest, as stupid as this idea is....you could run with it if you had the cash. Make a bar called cyfanatic, work with these guys and run people back and forth from the site and the restaurant - I mean, come on. Each football/basketball season you are packed to watch the games, everyone on here from out of town goes there, and you could have all the events there. It's genius.

    It's cleaner than my apartment and I like to go in the early AM since I can mostly be alone.

    That's because roughly 55-60 percent of restaurants fail in the first three years and 70 percent close within 10 years.

    I will invest my cf credits, what's that worth. I won't pull a Erik either and start a thread to boost them.

    I agree. Having a background in Hotel and Restaurant Management, its not easy to survive in restaurant business, especially in college town where everyone expects food to be cheaper.

    I went to college thinking I wanted a career; turns out I just wanted paychecks.
