This is not necessarily a book about hobbies. This is a book how to turn your
hobby into income. Why a book about turning your hobby into income? Very
simple, with the uncertainty of today’s economic picture I wanted to write a book
that shows people how to turn there ideas into a business that puts food on the
table and maybe even a new Mercedes in the driveway.
My objective here is not to delve into specifics too greatly, such as cash-flow
management, accounting, marketing, taxes, or writing a business plan, and I
don’t go into a great deal of specifics about starting and running any particular
business, although I will touch on these subjects lightly. My intention is to get you
to think in new ways about the possibility of owning your own business. To give
you new ideas you may not have thought of, ideas that are outside of the
traditional small business realm, such as “I love flower arranging, so I’ll open up a
flower shop”.
I also provide you with some excellent resources for getting additional
information on a particular hobby you’re interested in making a career out of.
There’s a list of Internet links and the end of the book that will open you up to an
entirely new world. Everything from where to get the money you need to start, to
where to have DVD’s, books, and even CD’s printed on demand – thereby
lowering your up front cost for many of the ideas I present here.
By my estimation there are literally hundreds of potential hobbies that people
involve themselves in. This book will focus in on 50 of what I have determined
are some of the most common hobbies people engage in and I cover a great
deal more hobbies and ideas on the Member’s Resource Center. I wanted to
provide people with two or three ideas for each hobby. Some of the ideas are
universal, such as becoming an “expert” in a particular area and writing a book
on the matter. Others are not so obvious.
I’m limiting the book to these specific hobbies because if I tried to address every
single hobby in the world, the book would be 10,000 pages long and no one
would read it! I also do not address hobbies that some would consider to be
immoral or illegal because I want this book to be available to everyone. If wrote
a book entitled “Hacking Government Computer Systems For Fun and Profit”, I
might get a visit by the FBI and, frankly, I don’t have the time for that.

So, I hope you enjoy your journey through these interesting ideas. If you use one
of these ideas to create your own business, please write to me and let me know
about your success. Id’ love to hear from you.
Enjoy the book.
