What Is Your Hobby?

Most of us have a hobby. We may not realize it’s a hobby, however, if it’s something that we really enjoy doing and we research and learn how to perfect it, then it can probably be considered a hobby. Hobbies can range from minor interests to full-blown obsessive infatuations. Does it really matter though? As long as you enjoy it and it gives you something to do, who cares? Stamp collecting, living history, building birdhouses, woodworking, video games, and many other activities are considered hobbies, however, do not appeal to everyone. These are niche hobbies. Another niche hobby is fishing. Fishing does not appeal to everyone, however, the people that do find this hobby exciting and really get into it wholeheartedly. For example, my husband now believes himself to be a saltwater fisherman, even though we live nowhere close to the coast and only get to go twice a year. This, however, does not deter him from obsessively researching this hobby, as well as, compulsively purchasing equipment for this hobby.

The Downside to Not Being Able to Practice a Hobby Regularly

Although my husband enjoys saltwater fishing to the extent of it becoming a new hobby, there are some drawbacks when it comes to not being able to practice this hobby very often. For one, he purchases a lot of expensive equipment that he thinks may work but is not sure. He is slowly taking over the garage. Another drawback is the fact that you never really become excellent at something unless you can practice it. Living six hours from our favorite coastal vacation spot only allows him to be able to fish in the ocean maybe twice a year. This is not enough time to really get a feel for what he’s doing or find good fishing spots. When he catches something, it is mostly by luck or chance not necessarily skill.

A Helpful App

apple.com A Helpful App We all want to be safe on the road, as well as others. But some of us can't help being on our phone or becoming distracted with other things while driving. Thankfully there are a few hand-free options out there, and Apple's CarPlay is one of them. Standard infotainments don't offer what CarPlay does.

Sending messages, playing music, asking for directions, streaming radio, or calling people hasn't been easier. All without touching your phone. It relies on Siri voice commands so you can keep your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel. Keep in mind, CarPlay is an app, it doesn't replace your standard entertainment system. Your c...

How Much Do You Drive on a Daily Basis?

How Much Do You Drive on a Daily Basis? We live in a society where people typically drive their vehicles for a short period and do not actually pay them off before jumping into a new one. There can be many reasons for this. This means that the total amount that they owed on the previous vehicle is tacked onto the new one so. Therefore, many people are indebted to their vehicles more than they are with their actual home loans. For these types of people, leasing a vehicle sounds like a good option because you get a new one every two years. The only issue with this is that you are only allowed a certain number of miles per year. So, for those of us who travel long distances every day back and forth to work, school or traveling, leasing is not the best option. We exceed the number of allotted miles in only a few months. The Alternative to Leasing A Vehicle So, what does someone do that travels great distances every day to be able to lease or to fit within the qualifications of a l...
