    If you could choose and job, what would you choose?

    For me, as childish as it sounds, I'd choose to be a professional sportsman in the NFL or something. The feeling of playing the game you love in front of (potentially) millions of people would be pretty unbeatable I think.

    Realistically, I'd love to be a photojournalist. I think it would be a great job that would allow you to travel and see the world.

    I know someone who set up their own think tank. They and their friends became professional problem solvers. Every week a new problem. No solution, no fee.

    They'll fly around the world trying to fix stuff they've never heard and doing it from scratch. They each have a different background. there's a doctor, a physicist, a philosopher etc... And the idea is that because they have different backgrounds, they each look at a problem differently.

    That's one of the coolest jobs I've ever heard of.

    If not that, model scout for a bikini manufacturer.

    If being a sports star is childish, then what the **** is this?

    Why spoil a perfectly good life by doing something you don't enjoy five days a week?

    I'm going to guess its the immense amount of time and money required to train and the poor job opportunities after that.

    I managed the money fine working full time and training part-time over four years, it's watching kids who are getting Mommy and Daddy to pay 30000 for jobs is what killed it for me.

    My bank-account does not meet the job requirements:mad:

    I'd say say you could actually make a good living from that if you know where to advertise.

    I'd start with the boards.ie role playing game section.
