How many board members do coins and nothing but?

If coins aren't your only business, what is your square job?

I'm a supervisor in Health Information Management. I'm aspiring to be a wannabe ebay coin dealer someday, but my wife won't let me put up the capital (probably for good reason!!).

    I own a Heat, Air and Appliance Repair company. I have enough tied up in it that my wife says she will shoot me if I start another business.

    I gave up my $60 an hour self employed automotive technical expert/ claims inspector gig to do coins full time. Went from a 20 hour work-week to an 80 hour work-week and it was the right decision. I hated my job more than anything in the world.


    You guys think there are liars and scam artists in the coin industry. You have no idea how corrupt the auto-repair industry is. NO IDEA!!
    I averaged about 1000 automotive mechanical claim inspections per year for the last 7 years. I speak from experience when I tell you that more than 50% of all automotive repairs are excessive, or completely unnecessary. Not just independent repair shops or transmission shops, but every major dealership that I have ever been to.
