If you could have any job..., oh god not another one of those threads Options

ok ok please hear me out...

if you could have any job in the world, and make a comfortable living (say 75-100 grand), what would it be?

you can't say "sitting on my ass playing halo" as that isn't a job, unless I guess you were doing it as a tester for a software company.

I mean a real job. I watched American Beauty for the first time since it was in the theaters and thought it was interesting that once he had his money (1yr salary from his Ad job), the job he chose to do was flipping burgers...yet he was stoked on it.

what would you do?

(this is the first question in a two-part deal).

Do you ever watch those passport to europe or exotic travel shows on pbs and the travel network? id love to be one of those people. travel to europe or random parts of india, asia, africa, south america everywhere for 4-5 times a year and get paid buttloads to do it.

oh heeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll yeah...

those people have it made. for some reason I'm thinking those are a who ya know kind of job...

so divergent liked being a gamestore clerk...that's interesting and kinda what I'm getting at.

I mean ANYTHING...

I really enjoyed working at this skate/s.board shop in new york. hands-down my most enjoyable job ever. loved the atmosphere, working with passionate like-minded people (yes, girls too), loved selling the product and helping uninitiated or new people learn about shit and what was appropriate for their level.

loved stocking...ripping open new shipments and being the first to dick with the stuff and calling dibs on it before it even went on the shelf, etc.

the second part is, try to brainstorm a way in which you could acutally do those jobs and make the kind of living you want.

how can you do your dream job and make money? is it feasible? can you develop a plan?

I've heard "do what you love and the money will follow" my whole life, but I guess I've just never had the balls to do it hardcore.
