    If you look closer, it’s also off-brand drinks, meaning, he absolutely owns the machine, operates it, and restocks.

    However, I do wonder the electric costs.

      Yes, that is a debate. AFAIK (from Japan), the vending machine providers give home owners a monthly rent for putting the machine on their property, but the home owners pay for the electricity costs. There was an article 1-2 years ago about how that model became basically a zero sum game for the home owners, because of rising electricity costs but I don’t remember the details
