Starting a Business (Making a hobby into something more) Advice Please!

[Ace_King]

We both share a passion for technology, specifically mobile devices (cell phones, tablets, laptops). We engage in app development, rom development, and also repair. We eventually started buying, selling, repairing, and flipping mobile devices. At this point we make enough doing this to where we can pay a majority of our bills with the profits. That is just doing this in our free time also.

I have a friend doing this, who lives very very comfortably. He is a single male, a condo right near the beach. I asked what he did for a living and he pointed to his office in his condo, "I work here..". That's when I found out he repairs, fixes, does rom development, you name it. I told him I'm willing to learn and quit my day job, LOL! He has a bachelors in engineering from a well known university and has been offered jobs but he actually decided to do this instead.

I say go for it! Just continue doing this in your free time until he finishes the CPA exam and you of course finish the capstone. If you guys are making profit already without actually having a store open, imagine the possibilities when you guys do actually open one up.
