Russ, I agree with Don..

Do what you really want to do, don't let money dictate your life...I am sure you already know that is not what makes a person happy...

Enjoy family, friends, and doing for others..and most important, let family enjoy you..

If taking on a second recording job makes you happy, and doesn't hurt anyone you care for....then do it....but if playing out makes you the happiest...then do it..

If folding tent, and just enjoy everyday events (believe me, there are many)....just do it..

I never did anything , just for the money....and I know I am the most satisfied person I know smile
