It helps like hell to have a decent machine and at least go at it long enough to understand it. Like others have said,if you’re looking at it as a second job...forget it. Maybe your wife is trying to tell you something? Like...get out of the house and do something? Maybe not? FABULOUS things are in the ground,hidden from view for centuries sometimes. It IS the gamblers mentality...what is the next signal? Do I know my machine well enough and the site I’m in well enough to perhaps have a good idea?
You will be VERY surprised at what the ground will give up,IF you are willing to put in the effort. If the “return on effort” thing is making you think about whether or not you’ll like detecting,then those are not the thoughts of a true HOBBYIST.
If you tell us what type of machine you have,we can tell you if you have a chance...and how serious your wife is about getting you outside!
