Why did he even work at the store? He could have just hired a franchise manager and sat at home collecting checks. Same with Walt literally no reason to actually step foot in the car wash. This show sucked. also 1 franchise makes about 45 - 80k and Gus was a millionaire you can't fudge the numbers that much.
breaking bad more like bad
Gus more like cuck

He doesn't own just that one store. He owns the entire chain. As for why he works there, he's just that kind of guy. You wouldn't get this because you are a lazy slob who's never accomplished anything.

Maybe he liked interacting with the public and keeping a positive public image.
maybe he did for a while but got bored of sitting around in his underpants watching murder she wrote reruns and fapping to violent hentai all day long

To keep up appearances. Nobody expects the humble guy.

They'll never suspect a nice negro selling quality fried chicken who actively supports the DEA.

Think we can end it here.
A real boss goes in and checks in on his employees anyway. Stop watching Wolf of Wall St

>not working on other investment opportunities while you collect .
this is why you'll never make it. Even Warren Buffet hires managers

To strengthen the integrity of the illusion of an on-the-level life, he had to be seen and known to be busy.
I'm hoping Vince does a one-off feature-length special detailing his background and rise to power
I know a dose of mystique/ambiguity is generally a virtue with such characters, but there are just far too many gaps with this guy. there needs to be some level of origin story to explain his motivations, genius, ruthlessness etc

I think the scene wherethe guy killed his friendwas supposed to serve that purpose

He probably could've diversified, but then that would've exposed him to far more financial scrutiny. I'm sure the IRS would be more than a little curious as to how an owner of a small fast food restaurant chain is pulling in 8 figures every month.
Outwardly, he has to live a life that reflects the earnings of a restauranteur, not that of a restauranteur + a high-quality, high-volume methamphetamine producer.

His public image was important in hiding his illegal activities and gives him a solid alibi.
>>68892013
that was one tiny aspect. that doesn't in any way explain how he got to that meeting ('you're not in chile anymore'), or his subsequent rise to power
just that he had a gripe with the cartel/salamencos, which he knew he was going to have anyway considering his ambitions
man all the dumb fucks itt even though its been spelled out in breaking bad and better call saul
it gives him a cover
he can't invest the money, he can't show that he has a ton of money available etc etc etc

Putain de merde... "restauranteur"...

> Restaurateur: a person who owns and manages a restaurant.
Yeah, really poor choice of words on my part. I should've just called him a cuck like the rest of you faggots.
