How do you support your hobby?

[Stanglovin]

Youngin' over here, not looking for numbers but just wanna know what proffessions are able to support some of these crazy builds and $30k stangs! College is around the corner and all I want to do is buy and build stangs with every penny I get :burnout:. Go easy on me guys :burn:

I am an operations manager... Wife is Cert. MRI, CT, Mammography, Bone Density.
I back up all that with my snow plowing business and installing and servicing portable and automatic stand-by generator systems.(seasonal)
I also offer professional auto detailing service to a small group of cars throughout the year. (seasonal)

I never touch bill money.. and that is the KEY... (leaving the wife no room to complain)

.....Side business supports the toys and the mods.

It is an expensive hobby..... just take your time.... it doesn't have to happen over night...

 

[SonicBlur2003]

Take your time and do what you can afford. Summer hobby is the Cobra and winter hobby is snowmobiling. Bought a new sled two years ago and getting no snow last year didnt really help the decision. So money is going left and right for fun. Active duty military doesnt support my hobbies well. However i find if i drive the car less it makes it easier not paying for the expensive premium gas

Be patient my man, it comes in due time. I'm 24, work as a stationary engineer in a boiler room at a casino and still really can't say I fully support the hobby. I do side work hustle car parts for extra cash but its still not easy. It's an expensive hobby so stay single, **** everything that walks, and wrap your piece.

Thank you everybody for all your inputs, I really appreciate it... Going into college and having no idea what I want to do for a proffession anymore is making things rough. All I wanna do is build and run stangs i'm addicted but I love it:burnout:. P.S don't be shocked if I PM you about more details of your job/jobs. Thanks again for everybody's inputs, drive safe and keep em coming!
