If money were no object what would do for a living....

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
I'd be the girl that swims with the dolphins/orcas in the shows at Sea World. I called once many years ago. They required AS in some type of science, experience with animal behavior/training, and paid $40,000/yr. Most who landed the job had volunteered there for many many years... it was very competitive. Dream job #1. Or I'd be a shark scientist who works at the Farallon Islands tracking Great White attacks. Dream job #2.

my little sister just quit as an orca trainer at SW.

they pay CRAP. like $9/hr. And she was about halfway to a BA in psych when she got hired - if anything they want you without animal training experience so they can train you just how they want you. She had lots of animal experience when she was with the otters/walrus/sea lions but once they moved her to orca you don't get to touch a whale until you've been there for years.
 
Astronaut... Not really, though. I'm just saying "astronaut" because no one else has (I think).

Actually, I would do nothing for a living if money were no object... Nothing.

OK, maybe I would be an astronaut if I could go to more interesting places than just the space station. I'd also probably need big spaceships like those in Star Wars because the ones we have now are too slow, small and uncomfortable.

Not like I would know that from personal experience or anything...

Personal trainer, I always wanted to open my own gym
 
I would probably not do anything but read books, watch movies and television shows, and sit around all day.


Finally...I thought I was the only one!
 
If money were no object, I would travel and review all kinds of places...even if it was just for a blog. LOL

OR if money AND ability are no object I would be a professional ballerina

OR..well assuming one day I will have kids and both of those ideas aren't practical, I would...lol...actually I really like my pharm tech job at the hospital. I wish it paid enough to do full time!! But that might get old.

I think being a missionary and helping people all around the world would be cool too
 
I would be Don Panoz.

Open up my own drug stores...
Start my own pharmaceutical company...
Invent some new product (ie nicotine patch)...
Make millions/billions...
Buy thousands of acres in GA and start my own winery...
Build my own golf course...
Buy a huge race track...
Start my own motorsports company...

This guy is my idol. He has done more badass things in his life than I could imagine. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Panoz
