ok well i just got 12 points (well my own suit not a friends). first off i just want to say im not looking ot make money. although it would be nice but im not looking ot make 10's of millions of chef. however i was looking and it seems i keep spending and spending and spending with no income. (although 13mil of it was on seas) between harvys for power, flora, chemical, moisture, and a few for gemstone, then maint, then factories it seems like i wont ever make any money. luckily i have a BE friend who makes me the schems (i harvest my own stuff) for the tissues. i havent sold much but i got to looking into the long run and well it looks foggy. Now you must understand i am more or less just starting so im trying ot build up so selection. ok enough of this heres my questions, question two is a lil mor ein depth
1.) once you get a seleciton of foods going what do you make next? just restock the ones that are selling?
2.) say you buy your medium tissues for brandy. between the say 3mil it costs for that full run say another 50k for misc expenses your not making that much. ok basically im asking on average for the basic stuff (brandy canape) how much do you make per a run?
thanks for reading this i know its kinda boring and stuff but just something i was thinking about. i just want to know if im going to be able to sort of support my jedi with chef by providing some extra money along with free food.

3 million for a full run of tissues is too high. I buy meat in bulk at 20 cpu's and harvest the flora to finish the bio tissues myself and keeps prices down.
20,000 x 20 = 400,000
65,000 x 05 = 325,000
725,000 for a full run of mediums and
you can add a little more for
the water to make them into additives.
Always keep foods in stock......for the first couple of months put all money back into the business and you will be thankful. Buy in bulk because you can never have enough of quality resources. When you are able slowly expand your menu but never run out of the basics. If you create a customer base...they will be loyal because most players hate running shop to shop looking for the good stuff. If you are always in stock, they will remember your shop and check you out first. I deal in volume so that's where I make my money. Lately if something sells out too quick I up the price a little to slow down bulk sales to just one person. They still buy but not 5 crates at a time.
