New Hunter!

[Supra]

I just bought my first MD off of eBay! Ace 250 seems to be a decent machine according to many posts on this forum. I can not wait to get out and try it out. I have one question...Do you think this Hobby can turn into a part time job? What is the average amount people make each month? This is not my main goal but would be nice to supplement my income with a little spending cash.

I had to agree on some Rules first before the wife let me purchase the Ace 250.
Top ten list
10. Save every change I find to pay off the MD
9. Never hunt in public
8. Do not hunt in our neighbors yards
7. Never ask friends if I can hunt their yards
6. She gets any jewelry I find
5. She gets 50% of all the profits
4. I can not hunt our yard
3. Never, Never embarrass her
2. I have to find something nice so she can retire

And the number 1 rule is??..
1. Do Not let my Mother-in-Law find out!

Just to let you all know I plan on breaking every rule except #1

Glad to here you were joking, I was feelin for ya. Part-time job? Almost no way. A lot of things have been tried, few succeed. Just put away every coin you find until you pay off your detector, and call it good. Everything else is gravy. Try to make a job out of it, it wont be fun. My 2 bits.

LOL, # 10 would be easy. # 6 is a given. After the 1st gold ring all the other rules will change.
