In this concise monologue, Donald Burns explains that the sin of greed in the restaurant industry often manifests not as a desire for more profit, but as a refusal to invest in essential areas. He outlines how neglecting equipment repairs, staff training, manager development, and cultural health leads to high turnover, declining standards, and an exhausting work environment. Burns distinguishes responsible cost control from starving the business, arguing that true profit comes from strategic investment where money yields returns. He concludes with a call to action, offering a free copy of his guide "The 7 Deadly Sins Restaurant Make".
