hihi alba,
home business can be anything you want.
small income (online auctions), to big income (stocks/shares,
trading of goods, etc)!
of course u have to expect some losses if things don't work out.
sometimes it's just a matter of bad timing.
so being prepared is the best.

most importantly, you MUST do self study into whatever you are
going to do. and listen to positive AND negative feedback with an
open mind.
both feedback may not be correct at the end of day!
there are always good apples as well as bad apples in any line of
work.
it is what works for YOU (not what you think others will feel) that
you will feel comfortable & makes the most (business)
sense.

good luck.
