　　S: I don't mean to discourage you,but do you know that most new business fail?are you fully² prepared?

　　J: sure I am. To avoid risk, I'll start by opening a small online store in order to make the first bucket of gold of my life.

　　S: that's down-to-earth. The profits may be low,but you don't have to put in too much overhead.

　　J: yeah, I can work at home, saving the cost of renting an office. And I don't have to hire an extra hand unless I'm extremely busy.
