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

Me too. I want money to work for me and not me working for money!!

Re: Dream Job

Confucius said, "Find a job you enjoy, and you'll never work a day in your life."

I've always thought I'd love to own an all inclusive bridal boutique........helping others fulfill their dream day.

Re: Dream Job

If I weren't doing what I'm doing, which I love, and there were no obstacles, I'd be a fighter pilot! Talk about the need for speed and "G's"....that might do it for me! LOL

The ability to strap on an F-16 or F-22 Raptor......Lord have mercy!!! You couldn't get me out of the air!

Several reasons. One being that I've called our local Art Guild and they never return my calls - fearing the prima donna aspect, which is so prevalent among artists. Hobby Lobby does give lessons, but they are geared toward tole painting, which I don't care for. I don't know any local artists, but I am a member at wetcanvas, which is an awesome forum.

Probably the main reason - I like to be involved in so many things that interest me that it is very hard for me to focus on just one thing for any length of time. For instance, I am repainting the wainscoting in the living room, ripping up my kitchen floor, re-doing four pieces of furniture and then I want to stop and play my Clarinet. I'm ADHD, more than likely. LOL!

I did say it was a "dream" job, right? LOL!

Did you see that video clip of a bride that came into the bridal shop, didn't like her dress and the family started physically attacking the owner?!!!!

I could see you jumping behind the counter to get away from a finicky bride!!!

LOL! Yep, that'd be me.

Well, part of the dream is that I only would have perfect customers - - no bridezillas or momzillas!
