Being paid a good wage to walk people over Gettysburg/Eastern Front Civil War Battlefields and babble about what happened there. Will lower that from good wage to decent wage if I can do it on horseback. May that be me at 50 years of age.

My ideal situation? Just to have the money to enjoy life at the highest possible experiential level and create my own work just for fun such as filming and writing documentaries. Just fly away all I want to go enjoy my short time on the Earth never a concern over finances.

Love Gettysburg! Was there in 1998, 2000, 2004, 2007 & 2009. Just an awesome place to visit.

Nah, it's a classic line from a classic movie - Office Space.

Yup. And you don't need a million dollars either, Peterman.

A nice place and a good motorbike in Saigon. Who cares about auto accidents and pollution? Laughing

My ideal situation would be to have a home somewhere (most likely back in Canada), and work as an elementary teacher at an international school, a curriculem developer, or working on children's cartoons or video games. Perhaps all three at one point in my life. We'll see. I'd also be working on personal animation/art projects just because I love that kind of stuff. I'd also love to travel at least once a year, explore the world and all that.



Now, as for my unrealistic ideal situation...

I would own several houses around the world as well as well as a ship, where I would live the life of a pirate (a fantasy pirate, not the ones like in Somalia) which would also double as a party boat for special occaisions. My crew would be mostly men, resembling such fellas as James Blake, Orlando Bloom, Taylor Lautner, Daniel Henney, and that Argentinian dude who plays polo.

On land, I would have an entourage of back-up dancers, where I could live the life as a musical when I saw fit. Going grocery shopping would be so much more exciting if people broke into a musical.

I would also own a horse.

I'd like a yacht outfitted like a small houseboat -- an apartment boat. It would need a decent generator and excellent telecommunications to interact with ports I'd sail around on it to all the islands. For some reason I'm utterly fascinated with remote islands.

But it would be a lonely life. I know I could handle it, but a co-captain would be nice.

This, except I don't care about reading and being the lone survivor of a nuclear holocaust would be reward enough itself for me.

10+ million US or Euro in my bank account with no further tax on that money.

OR

Some 1 year, $1 million a month, with a $1 million signing bonus, dream job. Where all I am required to do is travel to various countries in the world just to deliver a yellow envelope to some guy in an expensive suit. Maybe 4 times a month to various places in the world.
