One of the few things Seattle has to recommend it: Dick’s.
It’s an addiction. I have crossed the state for a Dicks Deluxe.

They make an awesome burger for a reasonable price.With a value of a billion bucks, I'm thinkin' the price isn't so reasonable after all...
Does that mean if they cut their prices in half, she'd still be worth 500 million dollars???

no kidding?
Carl Jrs....isn’t that what most of us call Hardees?
I mean really?
to compare that to Five Guys is ridiculous.
in any event...best burgers are usually in some hole in the wall or bar-tavern
I think Culvers is the best of the fast food burgers we get in Nashville
I don’t consider Five Guys or Burger Up or Cheeseburger Charlies to be fast food per se
I&O burgers must be good though since everyone raves on and on about them..all stores company owned

The plane crashed near the 55 freeway and Edinger about two minutes after I passed that area.
For some reason I have doubts about this photo. I remember the late Huell Howser going to their headquarters several years ago. The woman in the photo and the one in the Howser story do not resemble each other.

I have met and worked for every member of the whole family and the grandmother too, I am pretty sure I have met this girl also, but she was just a little girl then. Hell I might have been to her shack in bradbury also, been to most every house there at one time or another. They really were stand up, nice folks.

In-N-Out Pres and VP broke their own rule about not flying together....Both were on the flight that day..
BTW, In-N-Out Burger is the best....All these other wannabe burgers etc, are greasy cowflop in comparison.

So, you think that "reasonable" and "profitable" are mutually exclusive? This young woman is a gazillionaire because her family and their employees built a successful business over 60+ years. It's a for-profit business, not a charity. If they sell me a tasty meal for $6, yes, that's reasonable. Is it unreasonable if there's $1.50 or whatever in profit in the transaction? Hell, no. This is America. Or at least it used to be.
By the way, I believe that this heiress appears in Huell Howser's television special about In-N-Out (probably available online somewhere). Although that show is a couple years old, I didn't really get the impression that the heiress was really "running" things, as the title of this thread states. Yes, she is the owner who inherited the business, but it seemed like the company has a very solid team of experienced managers who are doing the heavy lifting.

Already married three times by age thirty? Somethings going on there Perhaps she is living up to the company name?
To: Iscool
Reasonable prices are not determined by how much the CEO is worth. They are determined by what competing products you can get at a comparable price. In-N-Out's burger is quite comparable in price to Mickey D's with way better quality.
Five Guys serves a slightly better burger for a much higher price.
