Go to school, get a good job that pays well, and make cars the hobbie. Then you can afford what you really want! Working on cars is really fun and all, but when I get pissed off and tired of fixing cars its nice to be able to put the tools down and walk away... I think if you were trying to rely on it for a living, it would start to be a job and a lot less fun. I don't think there's all that much money in working on cars either, unless you're one of the few. My .02, could be wrong Adam
