"Now in reality; your local corner store probably makes about 250k if it's in a busy area.. and you see this is not a very large business."

- i know you understand this but i want to clarify something:
that $250,000 refers to taxable income, not sales...assuming a 10% net income after inventory, wages to the owners wife and child, rent, supplies, utilities, service contracts, depreciation, etc, that corner store would have to be generating sales of about $2.5 million a year, or about $7000 per day (assuming it's open 360 days a year)

that's pretty good for a corner store...i bet most corner stores don't generate that level of revenue:
