You can be an amateur expert, an amateur is not paid for whatever the subject is, a professional is paid and that is the only difference.

Mr. Ashton
An amateur is nothing like the level of a pro, saying the only difference is that one gets paid and the other doesn’t is wrong. Is semi pro also an oxymoron? or a non profit organisation? perhaps hack is better description for this definition.
oxymoron: a figure of speech by which a locution produces an incongruous, seemingly self-contradictory effect, as in "cruel kindness" or "to make haste slowly."
