I was very inspired by Jason as well when I first started working with WordPress. I wanted to build a website for my small 1 man i.t. company and I had heard good things about WordPress so I searched and searched for a theme to use for my site and came across Press75 and ended up using Cafe Press and started customizing it. I would hang out in his support forums and learned so much about how themes and WordPress in general worked. I eventually started helping others on the forum and after a few months I was able to build my own theme and got a few website gigs along with my general i.t. work.

I eventually stopped working on peoples computers and started doing client websites on WordPress full time.

The important thing is to do something you love and hopefully earn enough money to keep you and your family happy.

Jeffro, you could start a theme company or a WordPress web site company. You know so much about it. You could come up with the ideas for themes from a users's point of view and find some designers and coders to work with you putting everything together.

Another example is a business like Page.ly. I am sure there are plenty of people in the community that would love to work with you on a project.

I wish you the best of luck and if you believe in yourself, you can make it happen.
