10 Great Franchise Brands That Cost Less Than $100K
These franchise concepts don't cost a lot to buy into.
100 Grand is more than just a candy bar or a large sum of money; it is 100,000 opportunities to put toward your future. Have you ever thought about what you would do with $100,000?
If I inherited $100,000, my first impulse would be to take the cash and purchase absurd items, such as turning my van into a giant sheepdog, I mean the battery alone would cost me $200 or so I’ve heard. When I asked some of my co-workers what their investments would consist of, their ideas circulated around a trampoline boat or developing bumper yachts.
But then I would come back to reality and ask myself how could I make this $100,000 into more? I mean there are stocks, bonds and gambling, but I would want to actually witness my investment turning into profit, so insert franchising industry (Granted, you can automatically see that with gambling, but way too risky for me.)
