‘Sold 950 Plates, Earned 1 Lakh Per Day’: Is Selling Momo What You Need To Switch To? Video Goes Viral

‘Street-side food vendors earning more- way more- than corporate employees’– is not exactly a hidden belief these days- specially if endless online videos and claims on the same are to be believed. YET,

when this influencer shared about the daily earnings of a momo seller, the internet seemingly refused to believe. A video was recently shared on social media, where the said influencer was seen assisting a momo seller for a day. As per the video, the influencer quickly got the hang of the tasks he was assigned to do. The video looked ‘normal’ at first, as it showed several customers buying and eating momo from the stall. However, as soon as the ‘analysis’ part began in the clip, it left many netizens cross questioning.As per the post, the duo sold “950 plates in a day”, where each plate was worth “Rs 110”. The influencer then claimed that the earning for the day was “Rs 1,04,500”, after which he calculated and claimed that the monthly earnings might be “Rs 31,35,000”. He also mentioned that the stall only opens from 5 PM to 10 PM.As soon as the video went viral, netizens began to react. Most refused to believe the calculations, while some questioned the price of the momo. Many also jokingly commented on how almost ‘everyone earns more than corporate employees’.Times Now could not confirm the details and the authenticity of the post.

Clearly a lie,” added another person in the comments.ALSO READ: ‘Have To Live With This’: Delhi Woman Requests WFH Over Headache Due To Pollution, Gets THIS In Response… “Who's buying 110rs per plate,” added another person. “In 1 hour, he sold 118 plates of momos? Seriously?” asked another netizen. “Math disagrees, every hour has 60 mins 5 hours is 300 mins, selling 900 plates in 300 mins is selling one plate every 20 seconds, even if you had a constant line you won't be able to make a plate in 20 seconds for 5 straight hours... So yeh rage bait,” wrote another.
