I frequently think about how lucky I am that I've been able to turn my hobbies into a side business. Occasionally I get asked if I'm going to retire at some point and it really makes me think "what is the purpose of retirement if I enjoy what I do and it doesn't feel like work in the traditional-sense of having a 9-5 in the office?" My schedule is flexible and I get to work with my son, doing something that we both love to do. What else could I ask for?
It was really nice to chat with the Business.com staff about how I was able to merge my two hobbies into a successful business. I hope the article inspires more people to explore their hobbies in the hope of finding a side business that allows them to make money while pursuing their passions.
