At first I wanted to be a praying mantis. Then I decided I wanted to be a turtle. Once I figured out this was impossible, I decided I wanted to be a physicist. I am now going to grad school in mathematics. Close but no cigar.

Pirate. Then computer programmer, later scientist, mathematician, writer, schoolteacher, probably some others. Eventually went to grad school and got a degree in math and even trained as a teacher. Finally became a programmer. Not many openings in high seas piracy these days.

I wanted to be an Astronomer. When I was very young I read a great deal. My family didn't have a TV. My mother and father were both academics, so during the Reagan years I grew up extremely poor. After reading about Clyde Tombaugh, Percival Lowell, and the like I began stargazing constantly with a pair of high powered binoculars my parents inherited from a birdwatching great aunt. Somehow my parents scraped together enough money to get me an unbelievably impressive hybrid reflector/refractor telescope. I spent every night outside for a great deal of my childhood stargazing, mapping, and simply exploring the cosmos. By my teenage years I was still set on becoming an astronomer. However at this point in time my family had shifted from extremely poor to just-a-tad wealthy. When planing my college career, I learned that astronomers made about $22,000 per year, with little hope of ever making more except for extremely limited circumstances. I swore I would never live in poverty again, so Astronomer was out the door and Businessman/Ferrari owner was the new course in life. The great thing about being a teenager with a telescope is that it's a great way to get to third base with a girl out in the desert. "Less light interference out there. We'll bring a blanket if it gets cold." Now I make six figures as a corporate cronie. Still have that telescope my parents bought me ages ago, and I use it all the time.

I almost think this is fake. Please, tell me something. Do you expect to work doing something you love? Do you think work should be fun? It's almost like you can use your rear end in a top hat job to live a comfortable enough life that you can put serious money into your hobbies and have fun there. You know, just like everybody else does. "my dreams didnt come true i had to settle for making a lot of money and being unhappy" smd. edit for content: When I grow up I want to be a FYAD superstar.

I wanted to be a cop in High school, and a Director after that. I never really came close to either, and now work part time as a maintenance man at a major institution.

I wanted to discover a new continent like Columbus and it would be named after me and I'd get rich trading with the natives. Then I learned that all the continents had been discovered so I wanted to be a paleontologist.
