Default The "if" in life

What job (and I mean job) would you want

- IF you didn't have to worry about money
- IF you didn't have to worry about fitness or ability (that is, just because you are old and broken down doesn't mean that you can't be an olympic swimmer)

It can't be a non-job, like "independently wealthy" or "owner of a sports team". It has to be a real job. You get the good and the bad.

For me, I'd like to have a job that I had in college. I worked cattle from horseback in NW Montana, near Whitefish. Damn long hours, damn cold times, got kicked by horses and cattle, got thrown more than once. But man, it was fun. Wouldn't want to own a ranch or anything, just work cattle from horseback.

What about you?

For me, suspension calibration engineer/ test driver for Ferrari. Although, marketing director for a gentlemans club would probably be fun for a while

I'd work at an LCdH that didn't mind me talking cigars all day and getting drunk on Havana Club while on duty--all the while trying to complete the great American (expat) novel.
