Across the country, millions of people turn their hobbies and interests into extra income. Some even build their own businesses. Examples abound: the yoga enthusiast who starts a studio, the computer whiz who opens a high-tech repair service, the hobbyist pastry chef who launches a wedding cake business, the musician who gives lessons on the side, the travel buff who starts leading tours.
