I can't believe how the lender let them get away with opening without paying for construction in full. So, just to recap, they owe a construction loan, they owe InKind $1.5M, they're "significantly past due on rent", and who knows how many other vendors they owe. How does that happen in less than a year of being open unless there's significant fraud / embezzlement going down? And how do these lenders let it get this far out of whack? Predatory lender or not, how does InKind let an obviously struggling business accrue $1.5M in what I'm assuming is unsecured debt? Just because you can cook a brisket doesn't mean you can run a business. You better have a book keeper hired and on staff. I'm guessing they were doing their own books and it spiraled out of control.

May 8, 20241 yr Just because you can cook a brisket doesn't mean you can run a business. You better have a book keeper hired and on staff. I'm guessing they were doing their own books and it spiraled out of control. Either that or there’s a family or friend bookkeeper that cooks the books, with or without their knowledge. We have two massive ego owners getting endless praise over their craft. They can easily get set up on a long con with all these loans from different sources. Easy marks for someone that knows how to do it.

May 14, 20241 yr Well the space is already built out for BBQ. I should open a BBQ restaurant there. Surely it would work for ME...

Shitty barbecue from a shitty company owned by a shitball family.
