The best way to becoming a millionaire

Do you know how to get from here
to here in less than a year?


I have a way for you. Think TOILETS. Just imagine:

- 30 sen per entry.
- 5 suckers...err... people per minute.
- 300 people an hour.
- 3600 in 12 hours (typical day 10am-10pm)
- Rm1,080 in collections per day.
- RM32,400 per month
- Monthly cost of 2 full-time cleaners: Rm2,000 (cheaper if illegal worker)
- Monthly cost of cleaning detergent: Rm400
- Profit before rent: 88%

But if you can get by with 1 cleaner who doubles up as the toll collector, your profit jumps to... to daaaa... 96%!

Now, if you can bag all 8 toilets on a typical shopping center floor (4 for men, 4 for ladies), you're staring at making a whopping Rm240,000 a month. That's a cool Rm2.88 million a year.

Your capital is almost zero. Your depreciation is zero. Your marketing cost is zero. Everything's in cold hard cash. No need to worry about competition, customer satisfaction or employee skills. Repeat business is 100% guaranteed.

That's not all. There are no enforcers or by-laws to worry about. As boss you don't have to be there where the action is. Best of all, not only your toilets don't have to be clean, you don't even have to explain to your customers what the 30 sen is for!! Let them use their imagination!

What else. Oh yes, your business automatically gets free protection. Your customers will actually protect you and your business! How? They will go around telling their friends:

- you small minded twit why make so much noise over 30 sen.
- market economy, market economy. U wanna pee, u pay. U dont wana pay don't pee lah.
- maintenance cost is very high, complex cannot survive.
- those free toilets in the new complexes ah? no you cannot compare.

Yup, when people ask questions your customers will happily do your PR for you and you don't have to pay them a cent summore!

If that's not a business made in heaven I don't know what is.

Me? I'm a cheapskate. I want clean but free toilets. I want cheap parking, like Rm1 for 3-4 hours. And I want the latest branded things.

So Sungei Wang Plaza and Low Yat Plaza is out. Hip hip hooray to Mid Valley, 1-Utama, KLCC and Bangsar Shopping Center!
