Government minority preference grants and loans.
I disagree. They work harder than American owners. That's why they are successful.
I won't argue with you about their hard work. Nothing to argue. But I also have met quite a few as clients and have discussed those very loans and grants and they most certainly do exist. That leg up over the average American is why there is a difference in success.
Not only all of that y’all mentioned but I noticed a few years ago that they were their own candy chip vendors for the most part. I kept seeing a yellow box truck at various stations where Indians or Pakistanis owned or appeared to own. I’m not really sure. They have the usual soft drink and beer and liquor vendors but the candies and chips come out of that box truck. I’m imagining they get a large discount by purchasing in large volumes like the big box stores.
Their credit card processing is the same machines so I’m assuming they get a bette rate. Not sure how it works these days though. Last I used was square but no longer in business. There was one but he’s gone now that used to skip sales taxes. If you paid cash he used one cash register and CC he used the other. Most folks don’t check their receipts but one day we did. The cash machine receipts said prepaid phone card. 😝
He’d figured out a way how to scam the system.
A few years ago there was a strong rumor that one Indian as scamming migrants coming over. He’d charge them a fee and set them up in a store. He’d gain access to their bank account and start sponging off them with more and more fees and they had no way to stop it. I’ve wondered if that is why the ones I see use the yellow box truck. I see it al over the shoals and westbound. It I have seen the guys and that truck unloading candies and chips at stores to the east on 72 and 20.
