Do any of you actually make any real money from this hobby?
ed12:
as a lover of this industry
yes i make a income from it
i make no bone's for it either
help ppl fix the machine's of what ever flavour they have is worth ever dollar i charge
the fact is the smile at the end of the day and the thank-you
it's about that simple
from a coils to a cd head the full range
board repair etc etc etc i could go on all day and night
but the etc etc get's the point across

Somebody has made a bundle, cause Jennifer has spent a fortune, I love the hobby so its not about the money...However after many years of collecting restoring things, and finally getting the toolbox, workbench, paintbooth and 2 trucks with liftgates paid off, the money just comes back and I cant stop it.

I've made back probably pretty close to what I've put in doing little odd jobs here an there and selling parts I had no use for. If you're in this hobby for the fun, don't ever expect to make enough "decent" money at it. Once you expect to make x amount for your efforts, the fun is lost.

Indirectly since from mame I got into collecting consoles. I now sell a few modded controllers, not so much offsetting my income as offsetting the cost of the hobby (",)
