I don't get how it could cost 10 million / year


Real estate, specialized expertise, expensive repairs. It adds up! I also suspect monthly insurance is insane.

10 million is not even a lot - a typical McDonalds can cost over a million dollars a year to operate.

A typical McDonald’s costs over $1M — just in salaries.

Here are the 2023 numbers.

a typical McD generates a tad more revenue though...
Which is probably why we have more McDonald’s than computer museums.
And a tad more risk
