Your money-is-no-object dream job?
Since we all had a good rhetorical workout going back and forth about teachers, public vs. Catholic, etc...I was wondering, if money was no object, meaning you could be financially comfortable (not necessarily "rich"), what would you do for a living?
Personally, I would farm. It's been a dream of mine for years, but here in New Jersey unless you're born into it it's nearly impossible to break into because of the cost of land alone. However, if someone gave me 100 acres, equipment, and a house to live in tomorrow I'd drop my job, graduate school, everything... What would you do?

I always thought that if I ever won the lottery- I would open an animal sanctuary for all homeless/abused/abandoned animals.
I could also farm. As a kid I worked on a relative's farm and I loved it. Perhaps if I had enough land I could do both.

If money was no object whatsoever? I'd be a Supreme Court Attorney. I'd love to argue cases in front of them.
