Well like I said, if I really had a choice, I'd become a mastering engineer. But a "normal" sound engineer is good also, i'm not difficult.
There are a lot of options when you are sound engineer you know, it's not only about mixing other people's tunes. Recording is a big part of the process also, and it doesn't limit itself to the music industry only. Movies are a big sound business also.
I know electronic music producers are usually making and mixing their own stuff (and if they get lucky enough to make it big, the mastering is probably done by a mastering engineer), but I'm sorry to say, as much as I love electronic music, it's not the only thing that gets me going. Most "real" bands don't mix for themselves. And mixing done by a third party isn't really worse, as you get fresh ears that will have an unbiased look on the material. Personally one of the best experiences I have had was recording and mixing a symphonic orchestra, just so you see.
So yes, I have absolutely no problem in doing jobs for other people.
And Bozor, nice to see support like that , the extra cash is the least of my interest. I'm doing sound because I love it. It's my life. The problem is I have just so many things to do (which I love) that I can't decide what comes first. For now producing doesn't get my full attention, but who says it will stay that way...

I know one guy who just never creates music on his own (always with some friend who knows what he's doing) and is telling me that he is going to buy all the shit to create professional music and make money with selling his great productions... dream on, dude.
I don't actually know people around who produce music as "seriously" as I do. I don't brag about my music, but I want as many people as possible to listen at it, and give comments. Most of my friends think it sounds good but don't have pro ears and don't give any comments I can use.
That's why I joined this forum. And here I find that I have so many things yet to learn, it's so cool! A good friend of mine who is into DJ-ing too says there's so much crap in record stores, and that my music beats it and so do many productions here! But the crap is signed, and most of you, and me included, are not. Not that we care, we just love to create music and learn about it. Of course, someday I hope to spin vinyl with my own tracks on it, and that's not even for the money, just a peace of vinyl would be so cool 
One other point. Smoothing around and having connections can really boost your chances, just to know people in the industry can bring you into some studio... or whatever, you never know.

no, not when it comes to producing, same as floorfiller, not many ppl know, couple of guys on school know i got some kind of keyboard hooked up to my pc but thats about it, my mom doesn't has a clue what i'm up to, and neither do i most of the time 
only my uncle knows, well i think he does, he often mails me stuff about cubase/reason workshops, midi related stuff etc, i don't know how and why he ends up at such websites, guess he doesn't has anything better to do 
but anyway, answer to your question. no, i don't 
do know tons of ppl who talk about dj-ing that way, while they in reality never have touched a fader in ther whole misrable lifes
