nausea Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Strange narrative indeed - "AFTER 16 years of running a successful bar, ... he needs to cover losses". An oxymoron if ever I've seen one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least 'mad' Mike was honest and the purchaser is aware that they're merely covering Mike's losses.

I said it was a strange narrative. If a true advertisement, a strange narrative, indeed. If a joke, possibly a narrative in poor taste, given many business owners going to the wall here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, he can. Just make it 40 baht beers and the place will be full. Doesn't mean it will be profitable, but looks great to a fool considering buying it. ???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
