Looking for recommendations on a hobby that could also produce income. Something that you could play/work at maybe 5 hours a day. I'll list some areas I've done or have considered. I've bought/sold real estate, but that is long term commitment to capital. I've invested in quality no load mutual funds for 20 years and love it, but that only requires adjusting maybe a couple times/year. I've never purchased individual stocks, options or traded. I gather commissions will eat up your profits at best? I've played blackjack seriously for 2 years-that's a dead end once the casinos discover your an advantage player. I've looked at sports betting, but I would have to invest online and from what I understand the online sports books aren't to fond of doing business with someone who knows what they are doing and is a consistent winner(like blackjack). I've played holdem poker for almost a year both online and B&M with success. I enjoy the game but it can be boring waiting hours to get a hand to play. Plus the short term luck factor is sometimes hard to handle.
So any ideas on areas a person could spend maybe 5 hours/day, enjoy and pickup some income. Please comment on the above areas plus add any others. Maybe you know a frind or a family member who has caught onto something that is unique.
I'm a person that will work 24/7 to get a handle on something, but usually get bored with it then move onto something else. I know there is something out there for me if I can just find it.
Sincerely,
Flipper
