No. 7: Dylan

Dylan sells peanuts. Monday to Saturday, 8am to 8pm. He’s been doing it for two years. When he sets out in the morning, he’s balancing about 10kg of nuts on his head. He’ll walk all day until they’re sold. And he’s making good money. His costs are minimal: 60,00CFA (£83) goes into the sack of peanuts he buys from the wholesale distributor. The sack lasts a week and he makes 20,000 a day, or 120,000CFA (£166) for his six-day week. He clears 60,000 and plans to open his own shop in a couple of years
