Reply to comment by lessmiserables in ELI5: why do grocery stores in the US keep such a large inventory? Aside from being prepared for episodic panic buying like toilet paper or bottled water, is there an economic reason to do this? How much of the food ends up going bad? by DrEverythingBAlright

The other interesting thing that I learned from someone in the business is that a healthy grocery store will have its inventory turns shorter than its credit terms (i.e. by the time they have to pay for their inventory, they've already sold it).

If you're looking in that price tier, I'd go AMD where the deals are much better. A 6700XT is basically the same price as a 3060 and is a substantially more powerful card.

It killed Michael Jackson. Daily propofol injections led to him going completely without REM sleep for two months.

So then how does the money get from the business to the owner in order to pay the mortgage? The owner is either drawing a salary, or is taking some other capital distribution from the business, which should be reported as income to the appropriate taxing authorities, or the business is a pass-through entity in which case the business income is their personal income and should also have been reported to the taxing authorities.
