I coach youth soccer and it's pretty much a hobby (coaching) for me. Although I do it on a volunteer basis, I've been offered paid positions with clubs so potentially, I could make money from it.

I buy older cars (mostly civics/integras for fuel efficenty) and work on (no bodywork though). Otherwise I get bored with the same car, and enjoy looking up parts, swap a motor, drive for a while and eventually sell. I look at my hobby, as a hobby first, but business close second. Or if I can buy something for $1500-2000, and hopefully make another 25-50% additional profit on top of what I've put into the car within 6-12 months, I can't complain.

My Aunt Cathy started loves to bake and started doing it for her neighbors when her kids left for college. She makes the best brownies and cookies and has now become somewhat of a celebrity. She’s flooded with orders and even though she barely charges anything, she makes a tidy sum. Keeps her busy and keeps her bank account full and happy.
