Quoted from Leeb18509:Doesn't make sense. If you lost your day job, wouldn't you make damn sure you were maximizing your hobby/job income and not killing it off slowly?
You are under the assumption one can make enough money at a "hobby" job to pay the mortgage and put food on the table. If that was the case, he'd have already quit his day job. Every second you spend not looking for a new job to replace the stable one you lost is like agony.
