Career in Sales or Movies

It just so happens that I'm making a tiny bit of money in Sales, so what do I do? Find an expensive hobby of course. I'm looking at this XL-H1 camera that I could make stars, (and movies), with. It would likely end up taping the family dogs, pickup games at the park, and the inside of my office imploding on myself. That said, it's likely a natural progression in my career...doesn't every poor musician salesman want to be a movie star, or make movies? IDK...I want to make something that ends up in everyone's collection. Probably will stick to knitted hats, jewelry, and small electronic devices. That said, cameras and camcorders, are very high on my priorities, that said, don't need to spend $5,000 on a camcorder that I don't intend to use. It would just be an indulgence, and I may get it, and I may not. Either way I'll be content, I'm just not sure I'm making this goal out of pure intentions. Besides, I've got a perfectly good video camera, where I can still source film, and it probably looks great transferred to a PC. It may even have "pro" aspect ratios, I haven't looked. How do you make budget movies anyway? Buy a screenplay, props, hire actors, film, editing, green screen, only to find that my movie is a box office bust. IDK...want a cigarette to forget about goals.
