Question of the Day

If you could earn money from your hobbies, which one do you think would make you the most?

Who has time for hobbies?

[spacedlaw.livejournal.com]

Cooking.
Writing does not pay and photography and paintings are too fickle.
But I know some people who would pay for a nicely turned dish.

Probably nothing. :) No, if I could sell Caffè Verona, then the writing. Barring that, the pottery, but it would take the right piece(s) priced exorbitantly. I don't do enough consistently to make money at it. Same with the fiberarts. :( Now I'm a loser.

Do I really really have to answer this one?:)

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Of course :D

I guess cooking, but then as my other hobbies are reading and watching movies its the best of a bad bunch.

Probably web design - I doubt anyone's going to pay me to work out. But I wish someone would ;-)

[delphaicdragon.livejournal.com]

That's easy. My writing. :D

Though my other hobby of trying to fix broken people might make me money if I spent the money to get a degree in psych. ;)

Hm..none of my current hobbies are real money makers to start with. But give me another 2 years...massage is going to move from the category of "main income source" to "something I do because I enjoy it." I could count that...

Nothing I can mention in mixed company!

No I kid... mostly...

Honestly I loved bartending I've always thought it'd be nifty to own a bar and I may have the opportunity to in the future if I'm still in this area... I suppose keeping it successful would be another thing...

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I'd visit your Bar :D

looking out my window for sure

Conversation.
My friend, Joe, once told me he thought there were three jobs that I was more than qualified for: Priest, politician, or used car salesman.

Second to that, I could indulge in my hobby of looting and pillaging.

It takes a viking to raise (raze) a village.

A priest? I think there was a tremor felt in the Vatican, my friend... :P

[(Anonymous)]

Why? I couldn't possibly be more corrupt then a lot of their priests.
Besides, I never said for which god.

So, do you want to know which one I think I'm better at or which one I think will sell more?

I think I'm better at scrapbooking, but I think my painting is more sellable.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I was looking for sellability :)

Painting? I'd love to see some of your paintings :)

[crescent-fresh.livejournal.com]

not so much hobby as obsession, but football. if only i could get into coaching or something, i'd be the next bill walsh.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

Have you tried?

[crescent-fresh.livejournal.com]

well, the problem is there are limited avenues for those who've never played organized ball. not having a college degree hurts as well, because most coaches at the high school level have to be teachers, and if you've never coached at the high school level, getting into college or pro level coaching is pretty much impossible. i'm researching ways to get in, though.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Over here, we have coaching qualifications that are recognised by the clubs, and open events designed to find the most talented coaches :)

[eternalxwhisper.livejournal.com]

SEX!!!! ;P


All jokes aside, I doubt I'd earn that much money but I guess my photoshop talents could be put to use at a price. I cook but I'm no where near qualified or capable in a restaurant and if I only I could get paid to read books once they have hit the stores!

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

LMAO! :D

I'd love to get paid to read books... :D
