Despite the size of the business,Campbell still enjoys touring with orchestras. “Musicians are usually delightful to travel with and you visit wonderful places.” It can get stressful though. “They assume it’s normal when everything goes right.

I have friends in other professions who are very highly paiD、”But he has no regrets. “They envy me because I am reasonably well paid to do something that I love doing.” What does SueCole say about people whose businesses are their hobbies
