He would be the first to tell another three important facts. If wanting the best help, you pay them enough to keep them happy. More then minimum wages and offered benefits. Happy workers are good for business. Second any cost increases get passed along to the customer. Just enough to go unnoticed by the average patron. Never lessen the quality of the end product by cutting corners in materials.
The people would come week after week to eat and stay to visit. The employees were a big part in this.
He made money, is now retired over ten years and just turned fifty five.

If he made enough to retire ten years ago, he obviously didn't take very good care of his employees. Unless you are suggesting they all retired as well? How can this guy live with himself, knowing he got rich off the sweat of those under him?
Poor suckers are probably now helping some other jerk capitalist get rich. Your brother would still be working if he were a stand up guy, until all those who helped him succeed are sitting on the beach next to him.
