Oh this dude has been doing the rounds on Twitter this week, it's hilarious. He said his "restaurant" is failing and only pulling in like $150-200/day. He also asked for Bitcoin donations. Off the top of my head these are the relevant facts:

  • closes at 7pm

  • is a stall inside of a grocery store, next to the grocery store's cooked food section

  • in the same strip mall as a Wingstop, Raising Cane's, and a Popeye's

  • Twitter handle is @Tallow, the sign in the store is "Authentic Grilled Chicken" (everything is fried), and the website is permissables.com

  • makes teriyaki sauce without soy sauce or sugar

  • makes marina sauce with beef tallow instead of olive oil because they do not use seed oils (olive oil is not a seed oil)

  • $30,000 in debt

There's definitely more ridiculous decisions this guy made but this is what I remember. He deleted the original thread because it got millions of views and endless comments pointing out how ridiculous everything about this is.

I don't understand how this happens. This guy obviously had an idea, but no skill or ability to execute on it, and was able to secure a loan that he obviously wouldn't be paying back.

Why did no one at any point in this whole thing stop him before it got this bad? Or at least provide him with the resources he needed to actually learn how to run and grow his business properly.

Though I suppose "Why did no one at any point in this whole thing stop him before it got this bad?" Could be the motto of the US really.

Yeah like what idiot lent this guy the money?

Probably someone who is charging him extremely high interest rates and knows he'll have to go back to working a regular job within 6 months.
