“An average McDonald’s franchise makes between $500,000 and $1 million in profits per year as of 2013, according to McDonald’s Franchise Disclosure Document.”
This is from McDonald’s themselves.
You are citing the INDUSTRY average profit for all franchised restaurants in the United States, not just McDonald’s.
Are you telling me you can invest $2million and make a $1million profit per year? A 50% return? Riiiiiight....
