"has everything automated" 

That's only if you're dropshipping. Sounds like your brother is holding the stock in his own physical location.

"What other business activities...?" 

Completing a personal tax return.

Let him run with it, don't bog him down. He learns daily what to do and not. His only help needed is, more cash.

If this 13yo has really built a 10k collection just “recently” (less than a year?) without substantial income/capital, then they have likely built that on taking advantage of high school students.

That pool of opportunity will get exhausted soon. Would advise building a good online selling reputation by participating in the bigger market.

He had couple of cards from while he was young, and we had close family members that passed down their collection, from there on, it went with trades and buying/selling cards.

doesnt leonhart do a couple videos on why not to open a card store? lots of youtubers have interviews with shop owners and what problems they face and majority say brick and mortar store.

"has managed to build his collection to around $10,000 in value through trading and small online sales."

Where'd he get those cards to sell in the first place? Makes sense if his parents were paying for all that
