Starting a business in the Philippines. Information required!

[London_Manila]

Hi,

I'm wondering how much a Salon/Parlor owner would make on average per month. Im looking to pay for my GF to start her own business in Bulacan but I have no idea what salary we would expect to bring in each month...

She has told me that she currently spends about 35,000 php each month to survive, so we would need this kind of profit after costs with the business.

Please can anyone advise if its even remotely possible to make this kind of money with a parlor which I would be looking to spend about 500,000php to build in Bulacan.


Thank you

35k a month

Look mate she is taking the piss big time, seems others on this forum agree as well

thats way too much, if she cant survive on 15k then there is something wrong

as for opening a business dont waste your money on a parlor

if you do open a parlor with this girl then expect constant demands for more money

need to buy more stock, the electric is not working, blocked drains, and any other excuse she can come up with

she will use the excuse of you opening a shop to bleed you dry

For me just that fact that she tells you she needs 35k a month to SURVIVE speaks volumes

Really, we shouldn't judge others by our own standards...not everyone is living on the bread line. The £ 500 he is sending every month cld well be the equivalent to chicken feed to him.

The question he has posed is not about his lady's allowance but the business idea....lets be positive here and keep to the subject

Dont expect me or anyone else to become positive about another kanu being taken for a ride !

Nothing to do about judging anyone on any other standards

35K is way too much.............................

On the other hand he's only asking an idea about the business. Lets not jump into conclusion about the the 35k for her gf. We should give him advise how and where he can put his half a million.

I must admit he got point here. 35k every month is way too much and to be honest no business in the PI succeeded much recently as people in the Philippines can only afford 3 times a meal everyday or even less which is sad and thats the TRUTH.

EPIDOT, THINK AS MUCH AS YOU CAN BEFORE SPENDING THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY.
