I knew Body Deli and they have not even owned it a year I think. I knew Marina Market and Gym in Paradise, which have both been on the market for quite a while. Now I see Grapevine Salon and Baked in the Sun, I wonder if people put their business's up for sale just to see if they will get a bite. I am aware alot of these people have owned their business's a while and may want to travel and not be tied down, owning a business in St. John and most islands mean you work 7 days a week. I remember once someone telling me it was not just my work ethic that got me job offers it was the 3 things employers look for 1. show up on time 2. show up showered and clean 3. show up sober I can not believe that many business’e for sale..

To repay a 10 year loan, it would require an annual cash flow of $43,700 (give or take depsnding on rates) Sounds a little risky considering the profits of $32,000. There must be business that didn't make it on to the books. The restaurant business isn't easy, that would be a lot of hard work for only $32,000 a year. This is interesting.

Chilly's was our traditional place to eat breakfast on our last day on the island. Hopefully, it will make a comeback! What a bummer!
