What is the ROI on audio?

If you have to buy a F1 Ferrari to record probably a long time.

How did you know it was my car? Darn, the whole poor homeless artist ruse is destroyed... ;)
Yeah that guy sold the two Ferrari's that he owned, they were a pair, and he had mechanics come from Italy and GB to work on them for the race days. He now has a Benetton and something else for his Son to drive. Another F1 car. They are very nice people and enjoy their sport.
I'll add one more to Mr. Locke's comment.
Years ago there was a little used book store near me. I commented to the lady who ran it, how I'd love to do something like that. Her answer was (and this covers living off Micro for photos or audio or video... ) "Don't quit your day job"
I am in no way suggesting that someone can make a living at Micro Audio. Very few do enough business with photos or video, and there's a far better market for those. What I was pointing out is that IF you have some inclination/talent, the time and the equipment, it can be some additional entertainment and maybe make some income.
Just as if someone who was a real friend asked me about getting into MicroStock Photography, I'd say, NO. Not if you think you can earn a living doing it. The same holds for Video or Audio. Here's where everyone gets all defensive and points out "some people earn a living" Yeah, same as painters, musicians, writers, poets, comedians, actors, and anything else creative. Some People do make a living doing it, the other 98% just tread water or drowned.
If you like music, do it. Don't have unrealistic expectations. And if you make it, Bravo for you. Success is a nice thing to see.
