Depending on what county you live in and the demand the sky is the limit when you want to buy one. Typically the state requires you to actually operate under the license for a while before you can sell it, to avoid speculators. Cite? Which state? You said Florida. You can just google this yourself if you want Try cost liquor license state I did, and posted the fees for Florida. You didn't look far enough to see they only issue new licenses every 10 years after each census (if the population actually goes up) and they are doled out in a lottery. After that it is a seller's market. The average price for a license is up in 6 figures depending in which county you are talking about Only resale maybe. The license costs have already be documented, you're just trying to slime your way out of being wrong. That is the only place you can get a license unless you win it in the once a decade lottery. Which has nothing to do with getting a license from the state. Something you're trying to claim you never said. Well, as usual, you talk in generalities with no justification. It's like claiming that it costs hundreds of dollars to pay a round of golf. Well, yeah, if you including buying clubs. The license is a couple of grand maybe, depending on the type. Then when you get it you'll have an investment opportunity. Try making some sense next time. ========================== Depending on the county in California that couple of grand could be 100 grand. About 45 years ago, friend ran a liquor store in Concord, CA. He and wife had a great week. Went to Las Vegas and came back with a $1000 more than they left town with after all expenses, and they both entered the liquor license lotto. Both got drawn. At that time the lotto was about $200 to enter and I think the license was about $5000. You had to run the new store for a year before the license could be transferred to someone else. At that time a license in Contra Costa County sold for about $100,000, plus the store stock. I think there was about a 2% chance of winning in the lotto. That is the real cost of a license, not the state sold cost, which is near impossible to get. San Francisco licenses are actually cheap, and you can not transfer out of county. They are issued per number of residents and during WW2 SF had a huge population, so lots of licenses were issued. Much smaller population now, but number of licenses does not decrease. |

I bet that is true. They buy what they sell. Just love the disdain shown here so often for academic achievement. ----------------- No, distain for some of the Schooling rules. Talking with the Dean of Engineering at Santa Clara Univ. during the 90's she said if you want to teach in the university, get a PhD. If you want to be an engineer get a masters. Education these days uses college to limit entrance, to keep prices up. Why does a 3rd grade teacher need a masters plus a year of basically unpaid student teaching? A whole generation of people were taught by people with a bachelors degree, and that generation seemed to do better than what we have now. Sent man to the moon, and built a great infrastructure in the USA. I'm not sure the academic requirements have changed all that much. Back in the dark ages when I was in the K-12 public school system, all the teachers I had had master's degrees or were working on getting one. You were only allowed to teach so many years, not many, without a masters. And the student teaching was considered an apprenticeship. No one got into the system without an apprenticeship. You should have a Ph.D to teach at the college level. It means you spent the time and made the effort to be an academician, that you know how to do research, and how to advance the level of learning in your field, among many other things. I hope you don't think we got to the moon without an awful lot of serious input from Ph.Ds in many fields. |

I posted an article in the paper that was complaining that the economy has driven the price down from $400k to a mere $175k. http://www.naplesnews.com/news/2011/...y-alcohol-fee/ One county makes up the whole state???? From YOUR cite: In Florida, the state only gets money from the sale of a quota license when the license is first issued through the lottery system. The lottery winner pays a one-time fee of $10,750 in addition to the annual license cost |
