My dream job would be a professional hunting or fishing guide. Kind of a wilderness guide type thing. I love to fish and hunt would love to combine that into a wilderness guide type thing. Love the outdoors and think getting paid to be outside would be the cats ass.

Funny that most of these are completely doable.

Funny that the only one that probably isn't is yours. Boom.

For me, it's a pay thing. I like making a lot of money, and my dream jobs do not pay as well as my current position. Easy math problem there.

Same boat, my 2 dream jobs I listed are either:

1. Full of risk (starting my own consulting firm) when I have 3 kids at home.

2. Would only pay about 1/3 to 1/2 as much as I make now (teaching).

Still my own LLC engineering consulting firm. 


I believe this will be my answer when I retire...consult when I want to.

I'm lol'ing that I said DJ. That's not happening.


Landlord is more realistic at this point. I could maybe go into CPG consulting wayyy later down the road, but I probably be burnt out by then.

I wish I would have studied more German so I could have become an interpreter.
