Making your hobby/passion your job is not all it's made out to be.
I'd second the 'making your no2 hobby your job' idea.
+1 to this as well. I used to enjoy driving, then about 8 years ago, after semi-retiring, I thought it would be a good idea to do it in some form for a job. Driving instructor (briefly) then HGV driver, now taxi driver. Driving anywhere now when I don't have to has as much appeal as sticking needles in my eyes.
