People always say, "make your hobby your job" -or- another version, "do what you like and make it your job". How practical is that? Can I have some examples of PRACTICAL jobs that people also consider hobbies or likable work. Thanks! Time for a career change!!

You need to think about the big three: Law, Medicine, and Business. Of those three, you can get started the quickest in business. If you enjoy people and like to listen, a career in sales can earn you a significant income. For example, if you like investing, you can become a stock broker... some easily earn six figures once they are established in the business. Of course, you can always take the entrepreneur path... decide what you love and build a business around it. I was recently in Napa Valley and the balloonists there earn quite a bit to take tourists on a hot air balloon ride... again, they love to balloon, and built a business on their passion. As for some more practical ideas, people will pay for ironing, sewing, cooking (yes, you can cook several meals in their home and freeze them), craft-making, tutoring, and simply running errands for elderly neighbors for a fee. You can do the same. Good luck!

They mean if you like photography or creating web sites then do it for a living. Or your into gardening or landscaping try doing that. If your hobby is watching TV or something it may not work out!! :-)
