Re: Want to buy a hostess bar
Some see opportunity in these trying times. The ex Fuel bar on 130 has been gutted and looks like will be a hostess bar with the standard bar top erected next to the front door. And the recently opened Ivy Lounge on 13.

Maybe a nail or beauty salon is a better investment .. esp if for a female
yes? no?

Re: Want to buy a hostess bar
Maybe it's just me but these all sound like extremely bad ideas. It could be a good time to buy a place at a firehouse sale price but you could be sitting on it for years before things pick up even to 2019 figures - which weren't all that great anyway.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

You're willing to spend seven nights a week sitting at the front of your bar from 20.00-03.00 guarding your business for a little more than breaking even?willyhilly wrote: ↑Mon Nov 01, 2021 6:08 pm Well it’s nearly 2022 and it’s a good time to buy a bar. Surely. But not with a girlfriend. I might just come and have a look. I’m on the pension so a little bit more than breaking even would suffice.
I can still speak enough Khmer to get into trouble and know how to build things.
Run. Run now. And buy Bitcoin or Microsoft stock instead.

I think you are missing the point. He doesn't need money. He wants fun.

Re: Want to buy a hostess bar
I have met a few guys who actually went in to the bar business in LOS and KOW knowing that they would loose a grand each month and they were fine with that. They all had a nice pension or income from abroad. Most of them had run different businesses back home and wanted to "keep busy" when retired. And as John points out; having fun was of course at the heart of it.John Bingham wrote: ↑Mon Nov 01, 2021 11:05 pmI think you are missing the point. He doesn't need money. He wants fun.
Looking back on it now, me being a few years older, it does not feel all wrong. But I guess, it is all about the choices you make. Each too their own!

Has Corona been cured in PP?
Re: Want to buy a hostess bar
Yes but syphillis hasn't. Alimony either.

Re: Want to buy a hostess bar
It seems to me that is EXACTLY the dream that many investors have when buying such business. Be the bosss of something even losing money, but having fun they never had before in life. Just immagine a work life spent on doing the same boring thing for 40 years..the idea of beeing a bar owner with cute girls around all day may be VERY appealing to many that come to spend their third life in Cambodia. NOT to my taste but I can understand the DREAM behind it.Kammekor wrote: ↑Mon Nov 01, 2021 10:58 pmYou're willing to spend seven nights a week sitting at the front of your bar from 20.00-03.00 guarding your business for a little more than breaking even?willyhilly wrote: ↑Mon Nov 01, 2021 6:08 pm Well it’s nearly 2022 and it’s a good time to buy a bar.
