Before you would be able to earn any money with a Burger King franchise, you would need an awful lot of it to buy the franchise. My research on Google indicates that you would have to have $400.000 in cash and a net worth of $800.000 before you could even think of serving your first Whopper meal! The most informative site of the ones I have looked at and listed below, is the bottom one, burgerkingfranchiser.com/burger-king-franchise-fees, this explains very clearly about the costs and why they are so high.

You also have to pay for everything relating to renovation of the building and its grounds, which can be another huge amount of cash!

This kind of investment puts it out of the reach of most people and it is not a short term profit making venture. You would need to be very wealthy before you started and committed to waiting for a long time to see a profit.

Yes, there is money to be made because this is such a popular fast food chain, but I could not discover any firm figures given for profits, probably because every branch will be different. These sites will give you more information.
