A friend and neighbor is a long-time hot rod person. You know, the “rat rods”, bucket-Ts and so on. He build ’em, fixes ’em for others and loved it as a hobby. He was getting a bit fed up with work at John Deere and reached an age (something like 52 or 54) where he decided he could live on retirement money if he trimmed back about 40%. He did – he retired.
Since then he has turned his hobby, the thing he did for kicks (and that which usually costs a lot of money), into something that now makes him money. He’s used his hobby skills for bring in supplemental income. And he’s having a ball.
