Do you know anyone who owns a gas station?

Supposedly it’s the most common enterprise that immigrants to America engage in, due to low barriers to entry, low capital costs, and a constant, solid ROI.
Do you know anyone who owns gas station(s)? Do they make a recent living doing it if so?

You don't make money off the gas. You make money off what is inside.

Except for building the station? I dunno that seems significant but maybe immigrants have more money than I thought

Yeah, they eventually made his kid the mayor of Jacksonville

Gas stations only make money from the c-store. Gasoline sales are irrelevant

My uncle owned one in Jackson a long time ago. I don’t know how much money he made but one of his regular customers was Walter Payton. Payton always paid with a $100 bill. lol

Lays are $0.70. Coke is $0.86 and Tom's are 16 cents per bag.
A drink fountain costs you a nickel @ $0.99 cents for 3 times.
Gas pays 10%.
You are looking at $55,000 per year after expenses.
Get two, if you can.

Worked for a family enterprise that owned 167 individual locations. Now I have 13 clients that own 21 locations.
They do well, very well. If they own the real estate they do even better.

I don’t think they clear much unless you want to work in it yourself. Getting dependable help to be a cashier in a convenience store is a royal pain in the arse and your own employees will steal all your profits if you are not also working in the place.
