If I'm feeling conservative, I would open a self-storage facility.

If I'm feeling energetic and risky, I would evaluate the commercial viability of radioisotope batteries.

That’s a good shout - maybe storage business to find the radioisotope research! I keep hearing laundrettes are good conservative businesses too.

Ha, OMG, if I had a nickel everytime my partner mentions the idea of opening a laundrette. It's almost to the point of annoying... but color me intrigued:)
