If his business grows and he can get more IP space (I'm assuming
when you said "owns" that he has been given portable IP space)
I would strongly recommend that he get a new, larger, continguous
block and renumber into it.  Renumbering can be a pain, but the 
reason why is that many large backbone operators filter on 
prefixes longer than /24 (Abovenet may be the most extreme case;
they filter announcements that are shorter than /20), so a person
announcing a /24 will not have that route accepted in a good
number of places.  If his busines goes goes well and he can
justify a /23 or /22 down the road, that will be good.
