If you could have any job, what would you be doing? - Lateral-g Forums

Opinion question:

For the longest time, I have worked for others doing the CPA thing and Controller stuff. It pays the bills, but in a lot of cases there is personal satisfaction or monetary rewards, but usually not both at the same time. Currently, the lack of personal satisfaction is outweighing the monetary rewards which were not that great to begin with.

I am contemplating a change . . . and would like to do something that both pays the bills and I would enjoy doing. I would love to do something related to the classic cars I love, but I wouldnt mind a cash cow job I could use to finance a growing P/T addiction either.

So that brings about my question: If you could have any job, or if you love what you do, what would your job be?

Hmm, since I am young I can still pretend this will actually happen:

1. CFO at Goldman Sachs or any large Wall St. finance firm.
2. Finance Advisor to a White House Administration
3. Move up to higher level cabinet, away from finance to boost a reputation.

4. TFL for President 2032!!

I guess i'd probably be doing assessments for the FBI. That might be kinda fun.

That would have to be between building hotrods and porn. There. I said it. Might sound dirty, but damn, both would be a lot of fun.

When I read this thread I thought "I work on hot rods and I like it". But the porn thing made me think..............

Right now, I'd have to answer : 'exactly what I'm doing right now.'

I truly love what I do, I love the people I get to work with, and I love being able to be proud of my work.

When I was young I thought about being a "Virgin converter"

.

Now I am to old for that so I settle with building racecars, which I infact did 25 years ago. Thinking of it I am pretty satisfied with my present situation.

if were dreaming, I would be rich and have no job. I would live in my shop of unlimited floor space and play with my big boy toys. (women included)
