You should do an experiment. Change your profile to something less extravagant and see the results again.

Why are you calling entrepreneurs stupid for charging high price food? Is a supply and demand thing. People like, people eat, people dont like, people dont go. I am 1 of those "stupid" entrepreneur who has a RM30 meal shop in SS2 area, and is flourishing well. I feel bad for the old aunties/uncles who are chased out of business for people like us who pay premiums for rent, but the business is such, we crush all competitors to be in the top.

Already did..totally no matches..lol

Tinder is such a fickle app

Apologies, maybe I have been too emotional. I used to enjoy cheap food around PJ and felt frustrated nobody is going for the "daiso" approach for high volume and low price, instead everyone wants Uncle Ben grocery style, high price and low volume. Correct me if I am wrong.

I believe one main reason is the Rental. Landlords are charging higher rent and forcing restaurants to charge at high price concept. That's why I try to avoid those high class shopping malls like Gardens. Big malls with big volumes like One Utama may have some cheaper alternatives.

I miss all the old economy rice, noodle shops that I used to frequent but at least there are still some left around. Recently went to a Vietnamese restaurant, felt pretty satisfied that they charge like RM 8 to 12 per meal.

I dont disagree with you , i used to and still enjoy humble food. But times changed, people like lavish food and lifestyle. Look at uncle don in SS2, packed every single time i pass by.
And when you go low cost high volume, you must "ENSURE" you have the volume for it. I took the step on targeting a niche market, like as long I have 20-30 customers a day I profit, rather then needing to sell 200 plates of rice. Getting that volume is a challenge .

actually uncle don, is consider the cheaper option, can you believe it or not? compare that to naughty nuri....people all want to charge RM50 and above per 2 pax for meals.

Sigh, times have really changed.

just the other day, I passed by one restaurant, notice it was closed down, with lawyer notice, asking for rental dues for 1 year.

there re many ppl out there who is rich on the outside, but many potholes at the inside

how hard is it to get multiple credit cards with balance transfer these days? i got the numerous calls offering cash treats, cc, balance transfers from time to time

but living the lavish lifestyle built on credits, these ppl are digging their own graves

those economy rice and wantan noodles still have long queues tho! but frankly mostly all aunty and unkers.... all the younglings goes to atas places and yet they complain expensive cost of living.. wadafak!

if you go jalan Ipoh or around there, got young hawkers la. But can't blame them, even the older generation get chase out by greedy landlords. They raise the rent of their shop houses, cause the place to become another trendy bangsar, how to survive selling economy rice?

It is also the fault of greedy landlords. In addition, there is a big fad going on in klang valley about opening shopping malls. Shopping malls charge exhorbitant rentals, that only franchises can afford to pay for them, pricing out the low margin and high volume food places.

actually the traditional food stalls still got youngsters going after, eg BKT in klang, ikan bakar, some delicious local dim sum, famous wanton mee etc etc shops which cannot be found in major malls. Their recipes has been passed down generations and till today still got ppl driving Benz BMW purposely to go there to eat.

the hipster trend, on the other hand, tend to be short-lived, its a cash burning race and at the end of the day, it is those without strong franchiser background will close down. Here hipster, there hipster, at the end only the hipster with most $$ will survive

when going mid valley on weekday night, the patrons are getting lesser esp after CNY, the cinema box office not much queue, posh cafe not much ppl, even McD not really full house, which is quite a bad indicator of current economic situation

yesss self cook is the best, economical and healthier too. I cook at home actually on an almost daily basis. Altho mostly korean and japanese cuisines (i can make a pot of kimchi jiggae for under RM8!

without them charging u like that, how would their salesman able to reap 5 figure income a month

if u notice, the msia economic fundamentals still very much relies on "imaginary" assets, such as property flipping, money games, MLM, songlap yada yada

very little effort is actually spent on real shits like R&D, agriculture tech, and so forth

the so called Chinese investment shit, all they did is just loan u billions, in exchange for the land, then they just bring in their guys including their own gardeners and cooks, at the end, local chinese companies eat shit, no technology and knowledge transfer, no jobs for the locals except the low level jobs

our ppl becoming rich by ripping off other people's benefits, that is the game in MLM, and we are living in a big MLM society, with the top being the MO1, ministers and cronies.

if no children nevermind, if got, their generation will bite the karma we made today

As per topic.. girls who have said they dont mind about monies about earning and etc..

On a negative side, while i was walking ard midvalley/gardens shops show preety much ones spending powers are limited despite income are 5 digits above.. felt quite insecured.. worried bout future .. such as how long can we maintain d said sum and etc

Girls being gf or single looking whom are looking for partners.. what are d most important criterias? Well, seeing the rows and rows of shops.. selling bags.. perfumes.. clothes and etc and how ppl are spending.. those girls who cant spend or their bf cant afford so..do they feel shortchanged? Yet i have known many girls who can think and understand d financial abilities of their bf and etc.. and many proceed to married and etc still live happy..despite budget in spending and etc..

But far from within the corner of my heart lies a doubtful scent and knocking and cracking of the heart dying to discover what girls really meant when they say they understand and do not mind her bf earning and spending.. ARE those statements made by them are GENUINELY mean so..

To my thoughts and deep analytical.. somewhere along d lines i feel girls do mind.. what quality does then these women sees in a men to forgo such. i would be proud and feel safe if i could pay for all d spending .. exp.. if u were to buy a bag say long champ.. ysl.. etc.. isnt it good if you buy all the colours and let her choose instead..

Is love .. time.. sincerity really what girls are seeking over material satisfaction..  ? Or is it that i have not reach the wealthy level to see and feel that basically there is no difference... btw rich poor and moderate.. still eat food. Still breath.. still sleep.. etc.. just that differing financial position have better experience in all aspects?

My partners says.. rich ppl are like a everest mountain.. they have conquer it.. seen what is up there.. and decided nth special also.. those who never climb before will think..and wonder what is on the top... praying..worship.. invest time and etc pondering d said mountain.. believing it is how good how good..

Really need to earn more? Can i just enjoy life naturally or keep climbing and climbing.. ?
