I would think that someone is a professional clown when they make more money being a clown than they spend being a clown. Right now, I am just getting started and haven't made any money.
My other hobby is being an actor. I have made a few hundred dollars working as an extra on movies and tv shows. In my mind, I don't do it enough to say that I am a professional actor.
Some day, I may be able to support myself as a professional entertainer who is a clown some days and an actor others. Until then, I need to go to work and earn a real paycheck.
