I'll see if I can make this still readable. Keep in mind that while it is a weekend thing, it'll be a hobby, and won't be paying my mortgage as well. On the weekend we can have one of the two of us owners running it, or maybe get someone else in for the day-time hours of sat & sun. We'd be hoping to do it for a $30k outlay, and start with 20 or just over 20 PCs. But to keep it simple, we'll stick to 30 at the moment, as thats where I'd like it. Fri 6pm - Sun midnight = 54 hours assuming 100% usage (foolish!) agreed, probably looking close to 30 hours AFTER it has been setup and running for a while, and that'd still be a GOOD weekend income: 54 * 30 * 3 = $5220 per weekend 30 * 30 * 3 = $2700 per weekend 5220 * 52 = $271440 per year 2700 * 52 = $140400 per year expenses: GST = $271440/10 = 27144 GST = $140400/11 = 12736 Rent in campbletown = approx $25000 pa Rent in campbletown/revesby = approx $17000 pa (found a suitable one for just over $300 a week) Computer costs (decent gaming machine, say $2500 ($900) a piece, reduced to $2000 ($850) when you buy 30) = $60000 ($25,500) Directors salaray (your pay) = $40000 (theres 2 of us, and we'd be doing this as a hobby - hense the weekend thing) To run 30 machines you would want 2 staff members on at all times (no less for security reasons anyways) say you employ uni students at $10 an hour = 54*10*52 = 28080 We were thinking about putting a uni student on during week nights (later). As for minimum 2 people, thats not right at all. 1 person to manage 30 PCs is what all the current ones do. Especially if its one of the owners doing it. total obvious expenses : 180244 (about 60k + "directors salary" for the first year. Every year an updated video card at $250 each) plus you have to look at public liability insurance: $???? workers comp: $???? bookkeeping fees $ ???? Tax administration $???? These are still unknown, we'll have to find out this is if you have 100% usage, i think 50% mean usage is a more realistic figure, all of a sudden - you are goin waaay out the back door!!
