Looking at a new career..

[jimmyinstt]

Hi All,

Jim here from sunny but cool south west Ontario.

Looking at a career change (less corporate world) and am investigating turning my hobby into a profession.

I need to learn a lot, but as they say, 'the older I am , the less I know'

Cheers

Thanks Peter.

How is beautiful Melbourne and area? I was lucky enough to be able to spend 2 weeks there and along your southern coast last summer.

Welcome aboard, Jim. Plan to "run in such a way that you might win." 1 Corinthians 9:24

I often reference to how much less I know each day since going into the studio full time in 2000. Wish I wrote it all down back when I knew everything...

Another quote that always seems relevant is "wow, we thought we were broke last month/year." If you (and your wife/family?) can learn to live on what you make, no matter what, on your own, it can be a happy way to live. There's comfort in knowing you won't get paid this week versus whether your regular paycheck will bounce again or will simply be another lay-off notice.

As always, tough times make good times even better and make good relationships even stronger. Good luck and Keep us posted.

Hi Jim, welcome to the site from Niagara Falls. The warm then hopefully not too hot weather will soon be here.
