Career Genie Forum

[Confused&Pissed]

If you could wake up tomorrow and have any career, what would you do? You could be a doctor and somehow know everything you need to know to succeed, or be a writer and already have publishers lined up, etc...Oh yeah, and no matter what you chose, you make 200K and work 40-50 hours a week.

Can I just be an heiress? Not gonna lie - I would not mind never having to anything except name perfume after myself and go to fancy dinners for the rest of my life.

Nice one. I'd be something that gets me onto Charlie Rose.

I used to be really into sound production, recording demos and live bands, so I'd love to be a successful music producer. As long as I didn't have to dress like an idiot or turn out to be gay...
