My five best would be Farmer, Truck driver, Equipment operator, Rancher, Builder. I have done all 5 and deciding now what I want to die doing. Maybe a little of each.

I think I would add (World Renowned) Photographer, and, Artist to the list.

Aside from loving my occupation (electronics design engineer) the best occupation for me would be, whatever I felt like at the time.

So I would have a great passive income from such things as businesses (that run themselves), realestate, etc.
Then I would just do whatever some examples would be (in no particular order) mushroom grower, woodworker, aquaponics hobbiest (already do this), farmer (cows, sheep, goats. Not crops, been there, grew up in that), straight shaving barber, race mechanic, oops more than 5..

Like I said, whatever I felt like. I would do it for probably a year or so, get bored and move on. Maybe come back to some.
Being fickle is a burden :/

This one is super corny but had to share it anyway!

My top five would be:

1. Pimp
2. Pimp
3. Pimp
4. Pimp
5. Pimp

Unfortunately, so far I'm unemployed. Dang it!

When I was a little kid my grandfather took me to a movie. This was way back in the mid 1950s when they had newsreels in between the previews and the feature. One of the things they showed in the newsreel was ironworkers erecting a skyscraper and I told my grandfather I would love to do that. He told me those guys were 'lunatics'.

I ended up doing that for 20 years. When it was good it was very good and when it was bad it was horrible. In the 1970s when the politically correct crowd was taking over the media the emasculation of men began. The word was that there was no such thing as a 'macho man'.

Walking around on I-beams a couple of hundred feet in the air on a beautiful spring day with your bridge belt and spud wrenches strapped around you ..... the operator swinging another piece ..... climbing columns .... that made a man feel like a man. I'm glad I got out of it when I did but I'm also glad that I did it for the time that I did.

1. Astronaut
2. Ninja
3. Midfielder for Manchester United
4. Farmer
5. Furniture maker
Well there is my list, but sadly I am a technician in a hotel and this morning my first job was cleaning pigeon crap off the swimming pool pumps. Never too old to have a dream .

I would love to have a job as a food reporter on world food.
Travelling all over while eating and drinking good stuff.
I'd be fat and happy

1. Brewmeister
2. Explorer
3. Travel Magizine editor
4. Food critic
5. Gynecologist at a Women's Prison

The last one is the one I used to tell people when they asked what I wanted to do, in reality, not so much.
