That sounds awesome.

HELP ME!
I worked at a shop for 2yrs. I dreaded working on my car (even when I had t prep it for AutoX) and specially others cars outside of work. Now that I work a completely different job, I look forward to the days I can dink around on my car.

Never make a career out of your hobby, it steals the fun out of it.

I tend to agree.
Indeed!

But it's ok to have a side business and supplement your income with money from you hobby.


Billy: Most people work all day so they can do that thing they love. You clearly have "that thing you love", just keep doing it and doing it well. It will make work tolerable.

I agree with this completely.
It's when you changeover that side business to full time that you start to get gray hair :p
