REVENUE vs PROFIT — the big lesson
Revenue is what you bring IN. Costs are what you pay OUT. Profit is what's LEFT. A stand that sells $100 of lemonade but spends $90 on lemons makes just $10 profit — the same as a friend who sells $20 and only spends $10. The smart move isn't always to sell more; it's to keep more.
