Hiya, again...

So with the help of a few friends, I just might be able to pull off my very own restaurant! We've found a nice build, a fantastic food serving system, some land for the most part, and we will be having custom furniture made to match our decor.

By the way... People actually *do* go to restaurants in SL, I have worked at three. So no calling me crazy!

Seeing as we don't have enough money for *everything* yet, I am wondering if anyone out there would like to invest in the Chocolate Mint Restaurant (or simply just make a donation because you're nice!). Currently, we need the following:

Our build costs L$1999. I'm pretty sure I can afford this after a while.
Our (possible) land tier is L$1895 and it is 4096 sq. m. (to account for the build and the prims we will need).
Our custom built furniture will probably cost around L$3000.
Dining animations (that are a definite NEED) cost a total of L$6000.
Our food system costs L$3995.
Estimated total - L$16889 (oh wow...)

So what can I offer you in return of investing or donating? That's actually a really good question. Um... Well our upper level can be used as a place to hold events or nice luncheons or whatever... Right now I have someone who will use it for events usually. Errr, you can has free meals? I really don't know, sorry, but shoot me ideas.

I would just really appreciate some help, because this is actually like a dream to me and I really don't want to see it end badly... So yeah, if you can help out, I will be eternally grateful!

Thankies thankies!

if i was to invest in a company which i do in RL to make a living. I would not just want free things. I would need to have a way that i would be getting my money back. Usually by equity or some other form of MONEY. I don't want free services i want MONEY that is why investors invest because they want to make money.

Also i see alot of newer restaurants pop up and then disappear after a week. How are you going to guarantee that that doesn't happen to you?
