What is your dream job?

I really want to be a writer, but for now I'm not in school and I'm unemployed. :( I mostly write in my free time (which is pretty much all the time.)
 
i want to be either a theoretical physicist or a particle physicist who works at the large hadron collider and in my sparetime stalk brian cox around manchester university lol :o)
 
An artist I guess. I never really understood 'career' or 'job'. It just seems so confining. We had some careertests in high school to see which jobs might be suitable, but my results came back with things like revolutionary, president and... pope. Pope, what the ****?! I remember one day answering 'bon vivant' to this question, and that might have been the most honest answer after all.
 
Definitely a doctor, Iv'e dreamed of it since i was very young, and i've studied medicine for a very long time and i know very much of it.
 
Being an actress on the stage, radio, TV and movies. I would love to start a traveling company for anyone that wanted to act. I would not want to run the company.
I would also like to open a school Recpition/ 1st to 12th year. This would be a cross between British form/American schools an some others.
fun learning = 4,5,6,7 year olds/5.5 year olds at the start of the stage and 7 at the end of the stage
first stage= 5,6,7,8 year olds/6.5 year olds at the start of the stage and about 8 at the end of the stage.
second stage= 6,7,8,9&10 year olds/8 year olds at the start of the stage and about 9 at the end of the stage.
third Stage= 8,9,10,11 year olds/9.5 years old at the start of the stage and about 11 at the end of the stage.
fourth stage = 10,11,12,13 years olds/11.5 years old at the start of the stage and about 13 at the end of the stage.
fifth stage= 12,13,14,15 years olds/13.5 years old at the start of the stage and about 15 at the end of the stage.
sixth stage= 15,16,17,18 year olds/ 15.5- years old at the start of the stage and about 18 at the stage.
 
To amend the part about the school.
Basic stage= would begin on average at about 4.5 years old and end at 7 years old.
First stage= would begin on average at about 6.5 years old and end at 10 years old.
Second stage= would begin on average at about 10.5 and end at 12 years old.
Third stage= would begin on average at about 12.5 and end at 15 years old.
Fourth stage= would begin on average at about 15.5 and end at 17 years old.
Advanced/University:
17.5-any age
 
I'd like to own a chain of doggy salons. Dogs make better clients than people. Probably sounds like an odd dream job, but it would make me unbelievably happy. AND I would be surrounded by tons of well groomed dogs. Though probably plenty of little prissy ones that aren't well trained as well. :: shrug:: Bring it on...

My dream job is famous photographer, my realistic job is end up as a photographer teacher.
 
My dream job is to be a Professor in some useful field. i am now doing an Accounting degree, and working towards my CPA.

I used to think I can be a public speaker, who had some wealth from his previous rap career :P
 
With this wealth comes with risks. Death is a nasty experience. Money alone can't buy sorrows.

Despite the rest of my family being in the healthcare industry, I choose to do business instead, because I cannot handle death. Or even sickness. I may choose to volunteer for young children in the future, though.
 
I'm pretty much doing it right now as a software engineer.

But a close second would be a college professor.
 
An "actual" profession? None come to mind... I'll leave it at "artist" and to add one with enough funding to do whatever he wants to create. So is that really a profession.. no, not really.

Back in college I skipped around trying different courses, all because I had no idea what I wanted and there was somewhat of an obligation to actually do something. That backfired because now I'm pretty much "too old" for college and I still have no degree. Well, to be honest, I don't aspire a degree, and in a way, the idea of "work" annoys me enough. Having a daily routine stresses me out enough to not even care about personal routines, let alone "forced" ones like jobs.

That being said, back in school I had a lot of sessions with therapists and counselors to let me look into what I actually want to be, as means of education. Based on a few tests I did everything pointed towards creative stuff; music, arts, photography... eventually writing. At some point I got suggested to look into journalism. That didn't work out, but at least I tried. So by tests, that came out. During sessions counselors already thought I'd be a severe case of "doesn't know what he wants because he doesn't care/like anything". Heck, one of em even thought I'd kill myself at some point because I'd be miserable cause of the inability to care/live for something as means of a job. Based on assessments of psychology, as well as some sessions, things pointed out like "cult leader", "revolutionary", "philosopher". Heck, at the proverbial yearbook (we don't have that in Holland) a few teachers agreed that I'd be a person most likely to commit murder or end up in jail... just because I had this "weird" mindset going on as a teen... not to mention a stare... (oh hi, aspie stare).

And to be honest, looking back now... IF I wanted to study something, I'd probably settle for philosophy, which will get me about as far as I am now, because the only thing I could do with philosophy is teach it in high school/college, which is something I don't really want to. Yes, I'd have a degree, but with that... myea, that's all I guess. Eventually I'd be more depressed because I actually have a degree, but people will not take it in high regard because... "hey.. what's philosophy... it's not like you can fix a car with that".
 
Some kind of quality control, like proofreading. No, you can't just use spell check. Trussed mi, u Kant.

That is, if I'd want to make art that actually is something people would want to pay for, lol.

Besides, I doubt she can live all her life with 5 grand.
