    Tempting...but no. Too many nasty bugs biting you all the time. Sure you'd know how to be cautious, you'd be educated enough for that, but not how to be comfortable in the jungle. I think I never could be.

    CEO of a succesful company. Depends, of course, but if you are the founder of the company, you can easily "delegate" most of the work on other employees and go play golf while they sweat. And to help carrying all those hefty golf-clubs and salary-cheques, you might need to hire one or, preferably, two secretaries. What other duties they have... use your imagination. ;)

    Or in other words: Bill Gates, Hugh Hefner, and Larry Flynt have my dream job. :D

    Matrass tester.

    Each night, I'd get a different matrass to sleep on. Next morning, I file a report of how well I slept on it.

    Imagine that, getting payed to sleep :) Wouldn't mind doing overtime in that case. :grin:

    I have thought of many jobs but when I retire from the military I plan to teach school. Low pay, whining kids and angry parents....what could be any better. ;)

    In reality I just love to teach. When you see a student struggle :confused: and then all of a sudden "BING!" the light comes on. :idea: They get it and you had something to do with that. Its really rewarding.

    @ Wiley One

    I have enever understod why somebody would want to become a teacher, I'm glad that people wan to however. As you say low pay, whining/angry kids (depends on thier age) and long education compared to the profit it will make.

    But as you say it must be really rewarding when the students learn something and use it to make thier own conclusions.

    I remember seeing in the paper a few months ago that Jennifer Lopez has a professional nipple-tweaker.

    You could do worse! ;)
