Today Maria and I went to the Mall for some shopping.  We talked about many practical things such as how much merchandise costs and who manufactures the products.  She told me that she has a small business in Brazil selling makeup.  In the USA she makes makeup purchases at retail stores, sends them to Brazil, and still makes about 20% profit even considering the exchange rate and shipping expenses.  The words that I have underlined above were new for her, and of great interest to her.
