No worries, mate, that ship has sailed anyway.

 

If we were speaking historically, my ideal job would have been a Victorian era plant collector - I just love the idea of travelling to remote places and being paid for it.

Yeah Victorian / Edwardian traveller or 'collector' of antiquities for me. To travel around Mesopotamia and Persia before the war would've been amazing.

Some top YouTube stars (although most are quite irritating) get paid millions to generally piss around having fun. That can't be a bad way to make a living

I always thought some of the top tech youtubers must have a great time, getting paid for making videos of all the free tech they get sent. What a life.

Can't see much beating a top drawer pro-footballer. Possibly being a top-drawer musician. Either of those would be pretty good.

 

In terms of more realistic jobs, anything that combines complete autonomy, a chance to be at least somewhat creative, total location independence and a fat pay check would do me nicely.

[the fox]

a job where you can become wealthy without being a celebrity. you can spend like a super star but also have the freedom of not being stalked by cameras and everyone asking for a picture. the best of both worlds
