"From every 50 $ dolar you pay:
20$ ( therapists ) + 7$ (rent and various taxes) + 5$ ( receptionist) + 4$ ( advertising )+ 2$ ( electricity, phone) + 2 $ (consumables, gas, etc).
As you can see we make a, BEFORE TAXES, 10$/ client and we do not enjoy more than 10-12 clients a day."
EagerBeaver, looks like you need an accountant as much as Severin appears to need one. The above is the only thing Severin said about his money. Before taxes, he's left with $10. He never claimed that he then lost another $5 to the tax department. He'll pay a lot less than that, if you've read the couple of posts above about Quebec's real business income tax rate (21%). Plus, I suspect that there are other accounting tricks that typical businesses engage in. Hell, he probably doesn't pay any taxes at all if he claims a loss!
I agree with DAK. I can't figure out why someone would advertise that he doesn't offer extras, if the business really depends on it???
I also tend to agree that Severin seems to have taken over the business recently, so whatever may have happened before, doesn't count anymore. Even if he's had it for some time, what's the problem with changing the way he operates his business? I think that there are a few holes in his business plan, but we obviously don't have the whole story.
Wow man, time to cool off!
