Use, for example, Rx

Observable.Interval(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1))
          .Subscribe(x => Earning());

No threading needed

public void Earning()
{
    var data= new Bussinesslayer().Getdata();

    // Wait a minute
    Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(1)).Wait();
    // Re-run this method
    Task.Factory.StartNew(() => Earning());
}

You'll need these includes:

using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

You can use the Timer class:
Declaration: 

System.Timers.Timer _tmr;

Initialization: 

_tmr = new System.Timers.Timer();

Setting up: 

//Assigning the method that will be called
_tmr.Elapsed += new System.Timers.ElapsedEventHandler(tmr_Elapsed);
//Setting the interval (in milliseconds):
_tmr.Interval = 1000;

Starting the timer:

_tmr.Start();

The function that will should have the same signature as in the example below: 

void tmr_Elapsed(object sender, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e)
{
  this.Earning();
  //please note that here you are in another thread.
}

If you want to stop the timer you can use:

_tmr.Stop();
