We are all in it for the money, be it the money we save, the money we earn or Both
While I understand that point of view I just don't share it. I hunt to eat. I don't want to hunt to make cash. Some people say that if you can make money at your hobby then that's the ideal. But i feel that making money at my hobby turns my hobby into work. And I don't want my hobby to be work.

Like I said, maybe I'm nutz.
