Which would you prefer to own, a Mcdonalds chain or a Starbucks Cafe?

I guess I would prefer the first one. Mcdonald's, specially here in our area is really a hit. It never runs out of customers. While a $3 coffee is already a luxury for most. Well, you can survive without coffee to jumpstart your day but you can never last a day without a complete meal. Well, in Mcdonald's, you can have a decent meal that's cheap and you know that it is prepared well and clean. And plus, you can also make your own cup of coffee in your house or in your office with the fraction of the cost in starbucks.

just curious, is the coffee from Starbucks (in the US) cost that much? $3? or is that like conservative estimate converted to Peso? well, you're right. McDonalds saves you from being hungry. plus if in dire need of coffee, they serve it too. =)

Well, I totally forgot that Mcdonalds serve coffee too. Yep, a coffee costs around 1 to 3 dollars in the US. Thanks for sharing!

If I would be given a chance to franchise one of those expensive stores. I guess I'd choose starbucks..Since there are no starbucks in my place..being the pioneering owner of the world's renowned coffee will be a new and big thing in my city=)

I agree and say McDonalds because they cater to a larger crowd. Most kids want to go there which cause their parents to eat there as well. They have the dollar menu which helps out those who don't have a lot of money and those 2 apple pies for a dollar is nice too. I don't know any kids who beg their parents to stop at Starbucks so they can get a Half Caff. So, I'd definitely say McDonalds.
