A massage costs $80 dollars for an hour. The massage lady is probably only getting paid minimum wage ($15/hour). Why is it so expensive?

Asking stupid questions like that shows you have never ran a business or even spent more than 20seconds thinking about what it takes to run a business. I'll spell it out for you...

>Overheads
>Rent: $1500/wk
>Electricity: $125/wk
>Advertising: $100/wk
>Admin: 4/hrs/wk = $60/wk
TOTAL overheads/wk = $1785/wk

>Prep: $3.75
>Massage oil: $5/person
>Massage: $15
TOTAL cost/massage: $23.75

Charging $80/hr
Profit $56.25/massage

Massage's to break even = 1785/56.25 = 32

They need 32 massages a week just to break even. If it was 1 person working a 38hr week they would make $337.5 profit a week (above their wage).

I have a similar question about the cost of ambulance transport and EMT pay.

>Why is it so expensive?

The same reason you have to show a paystub to prove you make enough money to move into a place.
The rent on a storefront is absurd depending on the city/state.

>$80 an hour
thats just the door fee buddy, that just rents you the room and gets you inside. $80 an hour would be a bargain, you won't know what the real price is until you're inside because they don't advertise the real price.

>> No.50729043

the real price is whatever she thinks she can extort you for based on how much money she thinks you're willing to pay. could be another hundred, could be several hundred. and thats just for a handjob. and thats on top of the $80 you paid to get in
