$60+ an hour? Worth the risk if you ask me.

Besides the obvious bass playing/rockstar thing, I would like to be a medical engineer or a some sort of sound engineer. I'm not really sure yet.


I have always wanted to own my own music store too. With actual good bass stuff..

Music biz. I wanna be one of those A&R guys we all love to hate. Either that or production. Would like to use my money from pushing crappy pop music to start up a label to put out "good" music. But gotta pay the bills too... :P.

I'm going to write a memoir before I'm 30. Then retire and write occasionally. Then set up an institution to put good music on the streets.

Work for a record label, hopefully something that pays enough that I don't have to worry paycheck to paycheck, but I wouldn't want to work for a label who's music I don't like simply for the money.

If the musician thing doesnt pan out then I would love to be a professor of either classical history or religious studies specializing in pre-christian syncretism.

Be a mechanical engineer instead. You can do the same work and you have options for when oil pans out. Trust me on this I know this work.

...what is this "grow up" of which you speak???






...actually, I'm already doing exactly what I would dream of doing.



I'm a VERY lucky guy!






(PS: Oh yeah, and I'll never "grow up", I am forced by the rules of biology to grow OLD, but that doesn't mean I have to become an adult! ...hey, you kids, get off my lawn!!! )

probably so, but i don't like the mechanical program at my college, and i always (since a young age after watching the Ocean Ranger disaster with my dad) wanted to work with oil rigs. I love the though of going out on them as they are incredible pieces of work, i just want to know how they work! lol.
