Me have family member that is started indian restaurant. He is one of five partners. Each initially invested 20,000 pounds, but it went to £40,000 for everything including doing up the place. The restaurant is quite large. If you are from the Sheffield area its similar to Kebabish at the Wicker innit. Anyways, its quite large restaurant with good number of tables and they do grilling etc in front of you and as opposed to kebabish menu they do more specialties.

Anyways, I dont know how much they make per week, but to me. I aint no business person, Im just a teacher, but I thinks that 5 total partners seems alot innit. I mean is this usual. Are there any business people out there who. This is totaley out of interest only. He is distance releative and me just curios.

Anyways please be as honest as possible.

I own a large lot in a highly sought after neighborhood. I've decided against building a house myself, so I'm trying to explore all of my options as far as making a profit from it. A realtor told me that I could make more money if I hooked up with a builder and put a spec house on versus just selling the lot outright. However, she didn't specify what percentage of the total profit I would share in when the house sells, so I'm looking for help.

I am doing a marketing project and one of the questions is to come up with promo strategies for attracting men to a day spa. So far I have "bring a friend offer" that offers discounts, and linking with other organizations (such as a gym) to promote the day spa. I need to list the description, advantages, disadvantages and suitability for the spa. (remember, its men only) I can not include customer loyalty. So, for the men out there, what kind of strategy would attract you to a day spa? lol...

Personally, I think on of the biggest scams going is that the government gets my money from withholding immediately even though it's not due until tax day. So basically, it's an interest free loan to Uncle Sam so some bloated beaurocrat can spend my money ASAP.

Here's my question. Is there any way I can set up my paycheck to eliminate withholding so I can invest the money over the year and pay all my income taxes in April? Also, I do not qualify for withholding exemption as per my W4 form. Thanks

Also perform surfing sites to cause traffic to be sent to my sites. So far, I have only had a few sales. Does anyone have any ideas they can suggest at little or no cost to me?
