For the love of keeping antique furniture, lamps and clocks as a hobby and investment can one makes a lot of money. I had a brother who keeps every things that he thinks can makes money in future. He started to collect all junks and antique items when he start works in a heritage shops. He started to collect old clock and repair it to make it works. With a little touch up and polish the anti clock is put up for sales. If he news any people who wanted to parts their old items, he will be there.

Today he owes three shops selling all junks and antique items. I remember one old father clock which he brought for a few hundred from his friends who is moving oversea. He sold to a family for ten thousand with a little touch up. Today's if you are an antique collectors you are consider a very rich person as antique are very expensive items nowadays.

My hobby turn into business

Hobby can make you rich but you still had to invest with some money. I had a brother whose hobby and my hobby is quite the same. We like to collect any antique items from furniture to crockeries, old clocks and any things that we find it worth to keep. We start our hobby when we are around the age of teen. We both are inspire by the beauty alter tables and a set of old mother pearl chairs and tables, some very old and colourful crockeries, and manys items which is left from my great grandmother to my mothers and wanted to sell it because she said it occupied my space at home and also many items are not in used. We did not want her to sell the items so we build a small store room house at the back of our house compounds.

Years back we both start to venture into this business by buying old antique items at a very reasonable prise and sold it at a better prise. Few years back we both decided to call our hobby a stop as our house is taken back by ournew landlords. We decided to sold our items at a discounts prise and within a month all our items are gone and we make quite a lumb sum of money that we could open other business. It was wise to choose this as my hobby.
