Allocate one day you're not doing anything every month or two to go around and clean/refill gumball machine and collect your cash and it's pretty simple. If you can manage to get your gumball machines in a good few hot spots ie maybe like an arcade or place that hosts kids birthday parties and you could make even more per machine

      ​@@Gamer6628 overhead is the total cost to operate a business before profit. Getting a free ride from his mom means he doesn't have to pay for transportation. If he did and decided to drive a car, his profit would be eaten up just from the cost of gas.
