Today I start eating bulletproof

in

Today I start eating the bulletproof diet. I already prefer to eat paleo and have known of the BP diet for some time. Well decide to start June off by switching 100% to it. I've been getting everything ready leading up to today, after getting paid last night I raided Trader Joe's this morning and cleaned them out of their grass fed beef walking away with 10lbs and replinished my stocks of kerrygold grass-fed butter.

Kris Longknife and The Doctor

I'm 10 books into the Kris Longknife series few hundred years in the future space opera, no other reference to Doctor Who then... "Kris fell silent, just what was a frigate? Kris had never heard of that class of ships. How big was it?... Kris decided to wait and see if this new Wasp was bigger than a breadbox and smaller than the mythical telephone booth" bwahahahahaah

Undercover Boss Season 4 Episode 14

in

Undercover Boss Season 4 Episode 14 last week was a gym (Retro Fitness which has a hideous colour scheme), They had something like 79 locations and stated the number of members+. I did the math when I watched it and it was an average of 3,333.33+ members per gym. $19.99 per member a month, and they claim on their site to be set to have 300 locations by 2016. 4 company owned locations, 75 franchisee owned.

CORPORATE INCOME
5.17 million and change in franchise fees yearly,
3.15 million and change via 5% of the memberships,
?.?? ??? via 5% on all the shake sales (which he said was 10% of their revenue)

They train you for a whopping 8 days as part of their franchisee program and best I can tell they have less than 25 corporate employees (actually looks like about FIVE corporate employees from what I've found).

So Eric Casaburi, the founder, is probably pocketing 3-4million a year after he covers corporate expenses and payroll. Nice work Eric!!!
