How many of you fix bikes for a living?

Well, that's sorta misleading.....fixing bikes is my, er..."hobby income". It wouldn't actually be much of a "living" unless you work for a dealership, and even then I'd guess it would be awfully seasonable. Just curious as to how many others on this forum repair bikes for others, either on a regular basis or maybe just once-in-a-while?

Once in awhile, mostly off road stuff for folks I know or family. I wouldn't want to do it for a living. It seems that anything I do for a living no matter how enjoyable I start to hate it after awhile.
Gee, I guess not too many?
C'mon guys.....speak up.:D
I flip bikes. I like to buy things from up north or during the winter and fix them up. Makes me poor at first, but the return is nice. A couple of times i've bought some clsoet lemons and really got the shaft though :(
You too?
My problem is, I buy bikes to flip and then fall in love with 'em and can't bear to part with them. Guess that's why I've got 5 and counting.......:confused:
Yeah, I fall for them, then hand the keys over and feel SICK inside. I have sold a gpz900 and an old school cbr1000 both of which i have LOVED and feel I shouldnt have sold. It sucks mang. I could take one or two off your hands if you want? Seeing as both my bikes are not running right now :(
