From what I've heard, you can't just buy a franchise.
A bar. People always want booze and a way to unwind.

What do you mean by extra cash OP? I'm guessing around 6 figures?
You can't. I looked in to it, you have to have management experience at a Chic-fil-A, for 2-3 years IIRC. But that doesn't mean I wouldn't love to own one

No kidding, they have great food and top-notch service. I've thought about maybe working there someday for the opportunity to own one. Their Lemonade and Chicken sandwich is the shit.
And its always f'in packed out! I stop at the one in Madison every Saturday before the home games.
McDonald's. Guy in my hometown owns all of them. Started with one and now is a multi millionaire big time. Large start up cost, but a huge pay off in the end.
Chic Fil a, does not Franchise I looked into it. That my friend would be a gold mine...
I co-own / operate a Remodeling company, commercial / residential, business is tight right now but we are still busy so I can't complain. Make sure it's something you enjoy find your niche... then be different, Stand out be more memorable than the other guy.

Yeah maybe 100-200k or something. Not millions, just something to get started.
Carting business. You need ONE or two at most big rigs, 5-10 containers at 10-30cu yds, a solid advertising with yellow pages at 5-8k a year. I guarantee you will see 150k in your first year if you do it right.
I don't have any money currently to start a business. This really is hypothetical. Just curious to see what people would do.

Hmm, who would be a primary client? It seems like I remember that you own your own business. Is this what you do?
Chic-Fil-A does franchise, as I also looked into it.
the worlds first drive thru restaurant on a lake... boats float (motor off) thru a canal around the back of the building and continue around to the window where they get their food! there are also a few stalls in front to park and eat. glass/plexiglass floor and either floating or on stilts...

Something along these lines, but my fathers company does demo and carting. No outsourcing of work ftw.
Primary clients are people that have ANY sort of rubbish, mostly construction debris.
You get into yellow book, make a website, buy some rigs and be ready to work long hours in the first year or two. Some guys start by putting small ads in newspapers first to see how it goes....
If I had enough money, I'd open a bar in a college town.
Liquor license is a cluster**** in most college towns, it's who you know type of deal and some towns have LIMITED amount of them, so if there is a max limit reached, NOBODY is getting one unless you buy it off of another bar owner or something. It's a PITA.
