careers: high paced, exhilarating, adrenaline producing!

<p>my dad makes 100k+ as an engineer. i used to think that kind of money was no big deal, and i would find it as i worked to the top of any career. hahaha. now i'd be excited to hear that 60k can be made in x dream job. if i REALLY wasnt concerned with money i would do some of the following careers:</p>

<p>bike messenger - $25k/year (dude these guys are so awesome >>> <a href="http://youtube.com/watch?v=nR2ygFn-yR8%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://youtube.com/watch?v=nR2ygFn-yR8&lt;/a> )
skydiving instructor - $35k/year
fighter pilot - $45k/year (45k is enough for me, but if you fail to become a fighter pilot you are still stuck in the military for 10 years. pwned)
outdoor trip leader - 20k?</p>

<p>so jobs along those lines would be my dream jobs, except i have yet to find any that can make decent money, or even advancement opportunities. </p>

<p>now for the relatively "boring" jobs i have thought about:</p>

<p>psychologist $60k
professor $80k
philosopher (ie, pizza delivery man) - 10k
computer science/engineering $80k
video game producer $0-1million
writer - $0
poker player - $20k-1million</p>

<p>bleh. none of those spend any time outdoors, or have much fun and excitement.</p>

<p>thoughts?</p>

<p>Your pay data is horrendously inaccurate.</p>

<p>Do what your passion is, the money will then follow.</p>

<p>Become a police officer with the Suffolk County Police Department. Being a cop is a great job, and Suffolk County pays really well. I think the starting salary is $57k and then moves up to $97k after 5 years of service.</p>

<p>Being a cop is my dream job, but my parents would kill me if I actually became one. I really think you should pursue a career in law enforcement if you want an exciting and fulfilling career.</p>

<p>well, if you are outdoorsy, you could just make your own survival show. those tend to pay well. go out in the wild and film yourself surviving under harsh conditions. </p>

<p>quite an adrenaline rush.</p>

<p>streetfighters earn a good chunk of change as well if you do it for money. </p>

<p>kimbo slice for example.</p>

<p>Park Ranger, they have awesome hats!
A cowboy, those are cool and you get to chew tobacco...</p>
