Movie director. And not some Indie movie guy; I want to do studio films. Think Scorsese...hell I would even settle for being a Michael Bay.

Re: If you could have any job in the world...

For many years I wrote about economics/investment themes.
Romantically, I could go back to that, until I remember the exasperation of not having a good topic to write about with the deadline looming.

No job's perfect. I'll keep my current one.

King of the world. I'd set thing right.

I used to think I wanted to be a sportswriter. But I've talked to and read about them enough to know its not that it all that its cracked up to be.

Re: If you could have any job in the world...

Dream job, eh?

I'd like to be the #4 pitcher in the Cincinnati Reds starting rotation...and I'd like to pitch like Bob Gibson's 1968 season...yeaH! 34 starts, 28 complete games, 13 shutouts! Put that behind Harang, Volquez, and Arroyo. Reds World Series Championship!

After I retire from pitching, I'd want Ty Pennington's job. Travelling the country helping people who need help...you gotta love that!

Re: If you could have any job in the world...

My dream job?

I'd start out working the night shift as a security guard. My job would be boring and there would be nothing to do, so I'd write books because I am a really smart guy. What I write is extremely revolutionary and many people begin believing my ideas. Eventually, I am so well regarded I get hired by the best franchise in sports, but I continue to put out crap and make a ton of money...

Beat writer for the Reds. Would get paid to watch baseball, would get to see all the parts, and travel to parts of the country that I've always wanted to see.

Who would want to write when you're having fun doing all that?

Re: If you could have any job in the world...

The PBP radio person for any MLB team. That would just a great job. The Reds would be my first choice of course since I have been a lifelong fan but I would take any team.
