<p>Anyone here know? I just recently got a published paper in psychology and I assisted a world-renowned professor in another. I'm currently working for him too, and I absolutely love the subject, so I really want to pursue it.</p>

<p>I also want to pursue business of some kind. Both my parents are in that field and international business, specifically, seems so fascinating.</p>

<p>I wonder if there's a profession which combines the two...lol, international psychology?</p>

<p>Anyway, what are your ideas?</p>

2

<p>I think I've moved on to wanting to be a foreign service officer (maybe even one day an ambassador?), or perhaps go into international law, though I doubt I have the presence to be a courtroom-attorney. Being something like a "legal consultant" would be more my style.</p>

3

<p>Something related to either law or business.</p>

4

<p>I want to be a forensic psychologist/criminal profiler.</p>

5

<p>Um, I'd like to work for an international organization, our government or another government. Or working for an NGO. Preferably, Economics/(Public or Non-Profit) Management is what I'd like to do. It really throws off people. A lot.</p>

<p>Them: "What!? But, you'd become the CEO in probably, what, five years if you went into business. WHY NOT!?"</p>

<p>I don't think imposing your ideals of what you think someone should be on that person is nice. My parents told me from when I was a kid, I could be anything I want. And they were never going to talk me out of it. Ever. And they've just been really encouraging. Other than my idea to go to art school.... But, otherwise, incredibly encouraging about anything. As long as I have a future, regardless of what it's in, it's all good.</p>

6

<p>Probably something in finance. What a yawn, right? Even I think so...</p>

<p>I wanted to be a prosthetist for a while, but then I looked up average income and that kind of turned me off.</p>

7

<p>I just want a lot of money, i dont care about what i have to do to get their as long as it's not against my morals</p>

8

<p>anyways... I want to follow (at least somewhat) what my dad does (investment banking)... something in that field. planning to get an mba</p>

9

<p>IT Consulting/Analysis. Pretty much what I do right now but with a business education -- read: more money. But I don't care. If computers dissolve and programmers will be useless, I'll have just as much fun driving a truck. Or doing a stand-up comedy.</p>

10

<p>no clue!!!!!</p>

11

<p>Football. Hopefully NFl, but I'm not too proud to play in the AFL or AAFL.</p>

12

<p>Engineering, either research in artificial design/biometrics/other fields in robotics, or working for an aerospace/defense contractor company.</p>

13

<p>Aviation is all I've ever wanted to do.</p>

14

<p>Surgery, I can't really imagine myself doing anything else. Except maybe lazing around for the rest of my life, no... that wouldn't be quite as fulfilling. I'll have all of eternity to sleep after I die.</p>

15

<p>Journalism.</p>

16

<p>a doctor in martinique.</p>

<p>perhaps a surgeon. </p>

<p>i want to be at that french island.</p>

<p>since i hope to be fluent in french at that point.</p>

17

<p>I wanna be on the NetHack DevTeam.
Too bad that isn't an actual job.
And I'm not an actual programmer.</p>

18

<p>I'm playing with the idea of being a vet--maybe a large-animal vet, since everyone seems to want to deal with the cute widdle puppies and kittens. I haven't had the opportunity to work with a large-animal practitioner, though; all my experience has been with small-animal clinics. </p>

<p>I'm not rock-certain about anything, though.</p>

19

<p>I just want to chill.</p>

20

<p>I want to be a hedge fund manager and ruin the economy even more by hogging 1.5 billion for myself.</p>
