Dream Job

I am in the process of changing jobs, and I am looking around at some different options- I have spent a lot of time thinking about what I would LOVE to do if time, money, education, and geography were not an issue. I am still contemplating so if the above were not an issue, what would YOU be doing?

Re: Dream Job

I'd be a lawyer if none of those were a factor.

Re: Dream Job

Hmmm... a Dream job? That would be one that would operate totally independent from my time and energy commitments. Of course that is just a dream.

Re: Dream Job

Honestly, it's a bit beyond my ability to comprehend this. It's safe to say ones direction early on in the teen years direct the future.

Being raised like the Amish, I only got a GED, and when I left I never pursued college at all. While I did plan for the future and built a business that is successful, I am sure things would have turned out different had I entered college...

But definitely, if I could just dream it I would want to be independently wealthy, with only slight hands-on management from poolside.

Re: Dream Job

My oldest sister is an artist and president of the Art Guild where she lives. She looked at some of my work and said that I have great potential. I've never taken lessons like she has and would love to do that.

So, after taking some various art classes, I would love to get into Fresco painting.

This is one of her latest paintings. I love it! I need to spend the weekend with her!

I would agree it can be difficult to really think about; rich, famous, smart, etc.

Question for you, though- will you encourage your children to go to college, Hoovie?

Re: Dream Job

I love what I do!!! But if money were NO obstacle, I guess I would spend more time overseas.
