My uncle is running an internet shop for almost a year and a half and I observed that he ain't getting any income from it. If you already have a business, how long will it take you to get even with the cost that you spend and have it all back? plus how long will you wait to have more money going in your business rather that money going out of the business..
He must be doing something wrong. Maybe his internet shop is not in a busy location. This kind of business needs to be situated in a busy place to gain customers.
