35,000? she has a different kind cost of living.. and also better to think of a kind of business which you can earn your capital for a year... Lot's of competition here in business industries but if your thinking of salon especially on part of Bulacan... Being an industrial economist I would rather suggest to put your money in basic necessity business on that area ...probably it will click and your gf will earn lots rather than in a salon. You will never regret to put your money on it.
