[Breaking Bad] Saul advises Jesse to buy a nail salon so he doesn't look like a tax cheat, how would an unemployed barely 20 something have the money to buy a small business?

Wouldn't the logic of meth profits looking suspicious also apply to the nail salon? At least with Walt it's foreseeable that a middle aged man might have enough saved up to consider a risky investment in a car wash he worked at, or a laser tag business.

Not really, because legit folks start nail salons and similar on low incomes all the time.  Most of them fail, but not all.

That's the point Saul is making there, it's a high risk venture with low up-front costs, which is exactly the kind of thing someone like Jesse would try to get into to improve his future, were he not selling meth. 

It's definitely not a smart investment for a sans-meth Jesse, but it is common enough, and it does sometimes work out.  That's all you need for cover.   Not smart, just plausible deniability within a reasonable doubt.
