Quitting your day job is key to success.. but, requires a delicate balance.
You have more time to work, and less money to work with.
The Dream Farm Thicko International Headquarters provides a well lit, heated
space to work on things throughout the long WIsco winter. That is something
I've never had before. a decent place to work.
I've got enough restoration projects, (with hope of one a year) to keep me
busy for quite some time. Prices on these things aren't likely to come down,
so obtaining unobtanium seemed to be a good strategy.

This overwhelming list Thick-mobiles prompts a question from a guy with a
barn-full of old cars that almost never seem to be in running condition:
How in the world do you work for a living AND stay on top of keeping fresh
oil in the sumps and insuring the brake hydraulics get exercised?
I've been thinking about quitting my day job because I can't keep up with
the LBC chores!
