slapout Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 billy (is it billy bob?) With 5 million to invest you probably did not fall off the turnip truck this morning, so I suppose you have at least that much to carry you thru the bad times for a while. Brouse around for a nice color, clientele, staff, area, food/snacks, ask friends???, bar girls, etc , put out word on the street and you should find what your looking for. Be sure to keep us abreast of your progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaybee2 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 After my second trip, I thought, yes, a bar in LOS would be just the thing! That's the life for me. Now, years later, am just very glad I didn't carry through on it! 555.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dream of world peace, winning the lotto, being granted a knighthood and an honourary degree for my theories on life and human thinking... owning a bar in Pattaya... not really something that would occupy a lot of 'down time' thinking is it... :rofl: Daewoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clickblade Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 DON'T bother, Put your money in a fund account and you will make more than having a bar and a massive headache and an empty wallet but nobody listens and I bet you are new to Thailand.

cpofc Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I have grown up in Sth East Asian bars since I was 16. Almost bought my first one in M H Del Pilar Street in Ermita, Manila in 1975/6, (The Yellow Brick Road), just at the time martial law was drawing to a close and Ermita was ramping up to become a Sex Tourist and Mail Order Bride Destination - it was the smartest thing I NEVER did. Contemplated it a couple of times since then, but each time I sobered up and came to my senses. I eventually went into the Thai Restaurant business in Australia instead. Much more lucrative and nowhere near as dangerous! Bar ownership in Sth East Asia is one of those 'professions' that took on a romantic and glamorous aspect by those who have only experienced it superficially whilst taking holidays. Spending your twilight years in the company of drunks, pimps, touts and prostitutes! What a way to go out! I guess Billy, you are one of those blokes that reckons he can't retire and just do nothing - You need a 'job' , yeah right, sure you do. It's all been said before, and to be honest I think Billy has Xmas Day and April fools day confused. Either that or he simply has too much money and needs to get rid of it quickly. But methinks you are havimg us on Biily.. At least I hope you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briggsy Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 mellew, Did you leave your computer on with you logged in? Does somebody else use your computer? With 5 years' of Thai experience you should know more than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaimate Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 I have a better plan than buying a bar and you are guaranteed to make a fortune ,when i was in Nigeria a friend of mines father was killed and in his bank account there is millions of dollars but i need help to get it out of the country ,if you send us your bank details ----------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagwan Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 My first reaction was that I wondered if the OP was named Manuel and he came from Barcelona. After the first sip of the first coffee of the day I then wondered how anybody seriously considering such a plan and who could amass 5 mil acquired so much. Mugging little old ladies on pension day? After a second sip my thoughts were who would want to spend their declining years living on immoral earnings? After draining the cup and the caffeine had kicked in, reality made an appearance. Could this be somebody using posting such a message as this be playing a prank on another. Or extracting revenge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilHarries Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Personally I think it's a great idea but his budget of 5 million is a little light. However I know a lady who'll be only to happy to let him have a 25% stake in her bar business for 4 million, that leaves him 1 million to spend on buying customers drinks. The business is a good going concern however some of the other 13 x 25% shareholders are a bit quirky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite! The general consenus of the scientific community is that, on average, a Dream lasts about 15 minutes. Sounds about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
