Going to work is not a hobby. Texting is not a hobby, neither is workout and shacking up. A hobby is something that you enjoy, something that's your own, that breaks you away from the outside world (not "puff puff pass" either). It helps relieve us from the stress that we put on ourselves day in and out. And another thing that hobbies do it allows us to be an expert in a field that we are passionate about.
Not all hobbies are equal. I know someone who collects procelin figurines, another collects t-shirts, another black dolls, and for it's comic books. Alot our hobbies could've been from interest we had from our childs, or something that we picked up along the way. But more often a hobby starts because a of fad. One of the fads I would like to talk to you about that is growing amongst adults is vinyl toys.
Vinyl toys are more than that just newest Barbie doll thats coming out, it vinyl toys that are out in limited numbers. For example the population in a small city or town may be 100,000 so per 100,000 there will 50 vinyl toys in the store. As you can see from that number collectors and sellers are out hustling.
But you don't need to break major bread to get into vinyl hobby.
Remember when Beanie babies were the craze, Mc Donald's did a series of Beanie babies I do believe twice or three times, I recall adults going to McDonalds for lunch or dinner and ordering a Happy Meal just to get the toy!
Folks are still doing it to this, Alvin the Chipmunks toys, is a current example of that. For Burger King it was Sponage Bob Square figures.
These Food Corps. know that folks are collecting the toys, now you can just order the toys and skip over the meal!
Sellers/collectors know that adults are into collecting burger meal toys, go to EBAY and type in "burger king kids meal toys" or "McDonald's happy meal toys" and you will come across so many toys that are current, from your childhood and even before your time.
Another place are discount stores and 99 stores. You find rare items there to start your collection. And also going to yard sales and thirft stores. There's no need to break bank. You are in control of how much spend on your hobby. You can spend 12 dollars a year (a buck a month)or larger.
Alright folks have fun collecting!
