Finding a Financially Beneficial Hobby

  Okay, so I've been trying to find a hobby that is not only fun and time consuming, but also potentially capable of making me a bit of that coin.  So far I can tell that the majority of hobbies I enjoy can only bring me profit through contribution, or YouTube.  Both of these routes take lots of time and aren't even guaranteed to work.  I'm now at a point where i'm ready to commit myself to one particular hobby, for better or worse.
  The hobby's that i'm considering are as follows:
Philosophy: The main reason i'm considering philosophy is because i rather enjoy reading, or listening to more often than not, philosophical works.  This would include Plato, Aristotle, Freidrich Nietzsche, Immanuel Kant, and various other philosophers. I enjoy reading their works and find that they really do a good job of enriching the soul, and getting at the "guts" of what humanity really is.  To profit from this hobby, I have conceived a few different paths I could pottentially traverse.  1 would be to start a YouTube channel where I go in depth about each work.  The other more viable option would be to start writing about each one and really analyze each work down to the core.  I could post these writings on this blog, and other philosophical forums where people can read them and give me their opinions,
Competitive Pokemon:  This hobby is one that I thoroughly enjoy engaging myself in.  I enjoy the strategy, the wealth of theory, and knowledge that get applied in competition.  I like Pokemon a lot and would like to indulge in it further.  However, while I was typing the previous paragraph, I've come to realize where my heart stands.  I will pursue Philosophy to it's peak.

In conclusion, I have devised a plan.  I will get a list of Philosophical works and I will start there.  I will review each one and i will prepare my thoughts on each.  This decision marks a new chapter in my life.  I hope all of you will enjoy travelling down this road with me.  Thank You.
