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.
