Millionaire lottery winner goes back to job at McDonald's

Wow, can't you guys just be happy for the guy?  He has a job he enjoys and is living the life he wants to lead.  Shouldn't we all be so lucky? 

And I disagree he should keep his mouth shut.  What better story to tell, obviously one we all need to hear.  It's not about the money.  It's about living a life that has meaning for you. 

it's generally a very good investment, Probably would be a good investment, but just because you can do something, it doesn't mean you should do it, again with millions of dollars under your belt, a Mcdonalds franchise should be BENEATH you.

Since Arby's and White castle don't have any franchises in England, that isn't likely to be an option, The chances are that they will let him open up a franchise where he resides, multiple business opportunities come your way when you have financial abundance.

and they're almost certainly not nearly as good an option where they are available. What do you mean, they're generally not well-established businesses or that they do not have the ease of start-up franchise like Mcdonalds?

"Gee Brain, what do you want to do tonight?"
"The same thing we do every night, Pinky- try to take over the world."

I don't believe he has to start handing out money to his co-workers. That's a good way for him to go broke.

I'll certainly agree that running some other business might be more socially useful than running a McDonald's, but running any successful business isn't beneath somebody. They may be capable of more (a very subjective concept, of course), but that doesn't mean it is beneath them. Your claim that "With millions of dollars Mcdonalds should be beneath you " is utterly without merit, because there is no qualification about how they came into the money. I guarantee that running a successful drug or prostitution ring isn't beneath some of the people who have millions of dollars. Other than the possibility that their overall offerings are slightly better, I don't see how an Arby's or White Castle wouldn't be beneath somebody when a McDonald's would be.

Ease of startup has little to do with how successful or sensible a business opportunity is. All else being equal, I'd say the chances for success and return on your investment are much better with McDonald's than with an Arby's or a White Castle. White castle is nearly twice as old as McDonald's but doesn't even have 5% of the stores that McDonald's does. That has implications for the possibility of success with anew franchise, as well as expansion to England.

While it's possible that Arby's or White Castle would offer a franchise to a qualified individual in England, the fact that they haven't already expanded there suggests a lack of interest. Having money increases your opportunities, but that doesn't mean that any given company is going to change their plans to offer you an opportunity. Neither Arby's nor White castle would be likely to make money from opening only a few stores in a new country. They'll only expand there if they believe they have a real opportunity, and this guy is not that opportunity.

KY F, my strongest viewpoints have been removed so it'll be pointless for me to continue talking about this, so i'll end my comments.

They were not strong, they were very lame and very offensive. I am glad that you are going to "end your comments."

"very lame" Understandable

"very offensive" To whom?

No more instigating from me, you happy?

Offensive to whom? TO EVERYBODY but YOU.
