Well I think I have the perfect job at the moment ....gravity push researcher and dog minder...does not pay much but the conditions are fantastic.

I had a good one...a consultant ...to the NSW Government selling off excess real estate... took the phone out on the boat when I went fishing, and a clip board with the list of calls to make ....

"Hi its AE here from xxx could you have a look at yyy and fax me an auction program at zzz together with an estimate of the selling range"

I never minded staying at the office.

Thinking about myth busters I think they actually work very hard.. I mean there is the set up etc but producing a movie is not easy work in my view.

A motivational speaker job seems rather cool, big money and a room full of folk who hang on every word as it you were God.

One real estate agent who shall remain nameless took $20,000 off one hundred agents for a three day seminar ...$2,000,000 turnover take off the hotel bills and hall hire and I think he did well...

But even that job sounds great but man the set up ...how many agents would you have to canvass to get 100 to shell out $20,000.... so it was more than a three day effort.

I think being a teacher would be good because it is so good to guide kids and inspire them but I guess there would be heart breaks all the time.

A mate started Australasian dirt bike mag and he had a good side because every bike shop wanted him to test the latest bike and do a write up.

He and I did four race bike promotions (enduros) and that was a buzz...but in those days there was no money in it...
