YOU FORGOT MY XENO SUIT.

Also

Go buy some Ten Knives, as sharp as they can be, then attach Claws to my hands, so that way I have xeno Claws!
3: You run up to some restaurant, grab 10 knives, but the waiters try to stop you! You're now trapped in there with stolen property!
Buy (or find (or steal(or craft))) a guitar. Play songs about love, freedom, and money. Busk. Donate all money to the 50 Cent store.
5: You find some guy on the street, grab his guitar, and hit him on the head with it. You run off, then start playing masterful songs about freedom, love, and moolah. The latter starts pouring into the case, which you had the good idea to bring. You obtain 50$, and donate it to the company.
Sell the barbecue. Solicit donations from people

6: You manage to stage a rally, and get the people all riled-up about the liberty and justice of barbecues. You then sell it to a rich couple, and obtain 150$- 100$ more than it's original cost! Woohoo! You then collect a further 20$ from donations- but no more barbecue... just 170$. You decide to keep it for yourself, not the store.
DIPLOMANCE LOCAL GUN OWNER IN ORDER TO ACQUIRE FIREARM


4: You locate a gun store, and manage to convince him that even though you don't have a license, you know what to do with guns. He gives you a price on them... (New store section- Personal)
Man the store
5: 3 people buy stuff, and you get a 30$ income for the store.
Crap.

Moar flyers!
6: Too many! You ran into the local post office, knocked out the workers, and commandeered their printers! There are now posters all around town! People are massing to your small location! Might be time for an upgrade...
"Aww man, what happened? Whatever, just another dream. I've been shot 9 times, I can take it."

Get up and resume business I was attempting to do last time.

Business stuff:

Buy a business newspaper. See what demographics spend the most money in this city, (demographics on gender, race, age, etc.). After finding the most important demographics, see what sort of products they want the most. Also check on the prediction for how well the national economy is doing at the moment, and how well it should do in the near future.

Check our inventory to see what kind of things we're actually selling.

Normalize the prices of everything, as $.50 is too low for some stuff, despite the name. However, to keep things in the 50 Cent spirit, instead of ending prices in $X.00, or $X.99, make sure everything is $X.50. (Ex.; Hotdogs cost $1.50)

See how much I, and each of my employees, have in our private bank accounts.

Check out any abandoned lots or stores going out of business that we could potentially move into.

One action at a time for running a whole enterprise?

Really?

Aaargh! Rules apply to all players, not just the employees! I'm not kidding! You'll get more turns when you  hire NPC's to do your bidding, or command your employees to do stuff! You're just one man!!!...

Micho leaves the rally counting up his money. 295$ - sweet.

"Splendid! Now to go invest in the business, and then to go make some connections. After all, rising in the economic sector requires friends. Lots of rich friends."

Head back and give TCM 195$ for the corporate fund. Put on my best clothes and go find out where the rich people reside.

"Mr. Cent, here is nearly two hundred dollars for our business ventures. Now, I'm going to go hassle some of the money pockets and see if I can get us some good connections."

(TCM, I'd advise just doing your third action for now.)

I really do hope you find someone to take over. I mean, I would do it, but I'm a player, so I'm not sure how that would work out.

Best of wishes Cool.

I AM NO MORTAL MAN, I AM 50 CENT.

Anyways:

(Coolrune, you could probably do all of that in the time it would take me to print up all of those flyers. Just saying)

"Boss, think it's time to get a bigger store"

Find a store that is going out of business we could buy. Also slap The Froggy Ninja in the face.
