Here's a well-cited post about the economics behind bodega ownership.
As with most business ventures, the owners are most likely taking out small business loans. If they lose the business and can't keep up with payments, they declare bankruptcy.
And in case you don't read through the entire post I reference, you can reach out to the Bodega Association of the US. for more information.
Museum gift shops can be fantastically profitable. “Railey Macey, a museum stores retail marketing consultant, estimates that a ‘store at a science or natural history museum can make $500 to $750 per square foot (per year)’,while an ‘Art Museum gift store may make as much as $750 to $2000 per square foot (averaging $6 to $20 per visitor)’.” What museum is going to leave that kind of money on the table?
It would be fine if all women were collectively buying chicken fries, but they aren't, so it's pandering, and everyone way paying the same price to begin with.
Burger King seems to have an even split between men and women for customer demographics, despite having targeted males with marketing campaigns, and maybe this one is an attempt to attract women.
Personally, I still think it's dumb because it relies on perpetuating the misunderstanding of a statistic that isn't relevant to anything they're talking about.
I used to work for a company that did some TV advertising spots during DWTS & that is exactly how it works.
Also, I think I described the demo pretty accurately (& kindly!) too: "Peloton's target demographic in the United States is 35-65 years old. Individuals under the age of 35 are their fastest growing demographic." -https://askwonder.com
"66% of Peloton bike users in the US are between 25 and 44 years old" -backlinko.com
"Equal male/female demographics. Typically live in big suburban areas. $100,000 - $150,000+ per year, household income. Employed Full time." https://www.reddit.com/r/pelotoncycle/comments/eap7oz/peloton_internal_marketing_docs_leaked_wants_to/
I think you would be surprised how much money is in rock climbing these days.
Global equestrian equipment market size: $1.9billion
Global rock climbing women's clothing (so multiply by like 2-3x conservatively to include men and equipment) market size: $449million
Additionally you do know other countries have vastly higher minimum wages, and pricing isnt much higher
Weirdly enough, hockey and baseball have a a similar problem. The average NHL fan is also close to their 50s. According to a 2020 article, most soccer fans are 30 or younger.
I think aside from football, sports in general struggles with regular season ratings. The fact that almost all of them are going on right now really illustrates where each one stands in popularity.
For what? All of the above is math or common knowledge.
The US has a little over 500,000 homeless people
The median single family home price in the US is $200,000
2 trillion budget set aside for military operations in iraq - (500,000 people * $200,000/home) = 1.9 trillion left over to spend on bombs. I'm sure the charter jet pilots getting exploded because of who's in the back will hardly notice the difference
Wonder. It's a research website, and with your background you would be an asset. Pays via PayPal twice a week, requests take 1-2 hours to complete; average pay is $20 per project. As you respond to requests, and your rating goes up, you gain access to better requests that pay more. You work whenever and wherever you please. It's decent supplemental income.
just because you could be better doesnt mean you arent good.
If you are purple there is no way you suck, that is just false humility which is annoying.
Of people that train, purples are probably in the top 20%.
Very, very common in cities. Nothing you have said makes what I said untrue. I also said nothing about making complete strangers live together. It is wholly unpractical to expect people people to not have roommates at all in cities. As land costs go up, this may creep further out.
2012 32% of adult Americans lived with roommates. Society is yet to collapse.
>What gave you that impression about Americans and airports when you're also saying that we drive everywhere?
My experience of America was that people don't think twice about flying across the country, and rack up thousands of air miles every year. People fly cross-country for their jobs, and it isn't a big deal. About 45% of US flyers are frequent flyers, taking more than 3 flights a year. In the UK, only 15% of flyers have frequent flyer status.
My impression that Americans drive everywhere was based on this 4000+ comment thread about how Americans drive everywhere that we're all commenting on, and my experiences interacting with users in that thread.
The overarching theme there is presuming things that are not.
Finance and law can and will be offshored. Finance is already one of the most out*sourced* fields (https://askwonder.com/research/u-s-white-collar-jobs-percentage-outsourced-k017r7c83) and I don't see any reason this can't be offshored. On the law front, this particular article references a British lawfirm with offices in Africa (likely because law is one of the first wrongly assumed fields that can't be offshored) and I've read another with similar examples a few months ago I wish I saved: https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/21445830/work-from-home-covid-19-offshoring
Of course manufacturing also has to deal with IP and government regulations. Blue and white collar jobs are virtually indistinguishable in this regard so it's odd to even see it brought up. I would put money on there being entire industries (likely offshore themselves) that specialize in assisting setup your offshore business.
I don't believe your assumptions that businesses have "had enough" and will not try to increase their profits.
I don't believe that "American exceptionalism" is anything but a mix of arrogance and unfortunately: ingrained racism. Work with anyone around the world and you'll find both incredibly bright/talented individuals with the skills to do a job, and absolute duds. The only thing that makes North Americans special is the sheer ego on some of them.

Majority of the rich are self made
In fact, if anything it's women that inherit their wealth. 48% of women inherited their wealth, whereas only 13% of men inherited their wealth.
I'll agree those that inherit their wealth typically aren't ambitious or successful. But the vast majority of rich men made their wealth, are ambitious/successful, and likely also sleep around because they can.
Fun fact: Latino is a word made by colonizers not by its own people.
If I’m following your logic here, say your a homeless person and the floor has been raised and now you can afford a house. since there are more empty houses than homeless wouldnt you say that it isn’t demand that’s driving prices up since the supply is already there, rather the artificial scarcity the supplier has created? Or perhaps you justify the insulin prices being raised too? Or maybe you justify other prescription drugs being sold at a higher price here vs anywhere in the world. Point is, things are not as black and white as your supply and demand lines. There is a conscious effort to make the most profit by creating a scarcity when there is more than enough supply to meet demands.
You might try AskWonder(non-referral link). They pay people to do short research projects. About $16 for 2-3 hours of work for the researching, more for the writing. I'm an analyst for them myself, and so far it's been pretty good.
Last I checked they didn't have any geographic restrictions for workers. You will have to pass a test, which is a full research+writing project. You're English looks pretty good, so you should be alright, just triple check everything and make sure you follow the guidelines.
I don't know if they are accepting new analysts right now, but if not you can check back every once in a while and something should open up.
Also, you might try looking through the top posts of all time for this subreddit. Many of them have lists of work platforms that should easily net you $1 a day.
Buena suerte!
Ask Wonder is a human-powered search engine / answerer. I think it's $15 to answer questions, and they can be really hard and complicated questions.
But I've only asked one question on Ask Wonder
I prefer this subreddit, cause you're my kinda wonderful! : )
