Start your own bicycle repair business
Via Bicycle 
I'd say having your own bicycle repair business is right up there with playing professional sports. Its something we dream of as kids and remember fondly as we age. Only a select few get to actually live the dream, the rest of us get lube our own cups and cones. =)
