A day in the life of a New York Food Vendor: Would you work this hard for $125 a day?

Glad to be back after a recess due to client tax commitments!

Let's start with this documentary article from the New York Times:   "A Day in the Life of Food Vendor".

The article profiles Mr. Kabir Ahmed who immigrated from Bangladesh 23 years ago.  He runs a halal food cart in Manhattan's financial district, along with one business partner and one assistant.  A fascinating read that is part food, part business ... and a lot of hard work.  A lot.  For which Mr. Ahmed makes about $125 a day, after paying expenses and sharing remaining revenue with his business partner and their assistant.
