How much would you invest (cash and loan) for a relatively stable franchise that as a median number produce the following: $1.6mm revenue and $350m gross profit (royalty fees, staff, occupancy but no owner salary or loan amortization). Takes about 6 months ramp to that point.

Your question isn’t entirely clear. If this is an existing franchise owned by someone else, you’ll need to to figure out EBITDA. If you intend to become a franchisee (start from scratch with brand support), you shouldn’t invest any more than the franchise fee and required investment amount in equipment and WC. With franchises, it is advisable to get the FDD (franchise disclosure document) and read it cover to cover. It’s a legal document and give great detail about franchisees in a system, profitability, requirements etc. hope this helps.

Product Design Engineer, interviewing at Apple (Cupertino) and at Meta (Seattle/Redmond). Not at the offer stage yet, but I'm contemplating where I would relocate with family.
No idea about team/culture/stability differences yet.

The non-work factors I'm debating are:
1. Cost-of-living (housing!). Could probably afford a nice ~$1.25M SFH in Seattle suburbs sooner than a fair $1.5-2M near Cupertino.
2. Public School quality. Unsure private will be affordable.
3. Weather/region: activities

Partners or whomever can help me understand about billing and hours. To keep things simple, let’s say you only have one staff to work 1,700 billable hours a year on a $60k salary and you have only one job that and the rate charged to the client is $300/hour and an projected hours budget of 1,700 hours. So ideally you would have revenue of $510k. If the staff takes less time partners make less money and if they take more time partners make more money while the staff keeps the same salary?

A startup offered me stock options for my support. Now they want to start paying me part time and also offer me increased stake in the company. I am debating between asking for equity or more stock options. Need help in understanding which one to consider. For context, founder is open to both as they consider me as part of the founding team and long term plans for the company.

Co-Founder here. I have 25% of the company, and the other 2 cofounders have 10% and 65%. The 10% cofounder hardly does anything anymore. The 65% co-founder still seems dedicated and I think it’s largely because of sunk costs (this person put in most of the money). I don’t believe in the startup anymore, which seems to be a good indication it’s time to quit. Any advice for quitting and leaving your company in an even worse state as a result? Thanks 🙏
