It's hard, and for the most part thankless. There's unlikely to be any money to be made, in fact the probabilty is you will lose money. But everyone knows that, everyone has pretty much read the 'pay your dues' and 'wrestling is a tough business, kid' crap from several people online, but one I am able to relate to most is the strain that this business takes on my family. Basically, my family hates me as a result of this show, they really do. It's a really strange feeling to walk into the lounge and to be greeted with all the warmth of your 8th grade gym teacher.
Families worry, and worry to an exaggerated extent.
It's why we hate, and love them at the same time. First off, I'm not really paying my bills, first and foremost, which royally pisses them off the most. They can't seem to fathom why I would put so much money into a show, when the possibilities of getting anything more than your money back is generally slim, although not unthinkable. Second, I had to borrow money from them to help pay some of the costs. Let me just go off topic for a sentence and state that a private first aider is the job to have, these guys charge a freaking fortune.
