# Businesses

### Business Owners

You can only own one business at a time. This also carries across all your characters so if you own one as Joe Blogs then your second/third character and so on can't own a business.

You can only have one owned business per group/gang, this means if someone else joins your group who owns a business you will have to decide who stays and goes.

If you are married then both partners are classed as a single person, which means you can only own one business between you.

If you sell a business their will be a cool down of 2 weeks before you can purchase a new one.
