    There are a lot of people out there that have no interest in activities that dont provide monetary gain. I always get asked how i'm going to make money by penspinning.

    Lets face it, Pen spinning is a big waste of time. Just like playing video games, just like drawing, just like playing music. I also enjoy them quite a bit.

    But i get asked a lot what i'm going to do with it, as if i was planning on "going somewhere" with it. Anyone else get annoyed when people ask that?

    There are people who make money from those three mentioned things and in fact about 1/4 of the adults I know make their money now or made money in the past from playing music.

    I do pen spinning cause I like it, nothing else.
    It's a interest, or a hobby, you don't have to make money out of it... You just do it cause you enjoy doing it... doesn't have to be all about money.

    Haha... i actually dont rake in all that much for how much ive put in. Im still not even close to even.
    But i love this as a hobby... getting a few bucks to play with just makes it all the more fun.
