Life not cracked up to what I thought it would!

Anyone else feel let down by life? When I was 7 I dreamed about becoming an astronaut but unfortunately I am now 29 working in a boring office earning the average salary! Has anyone achieved there dream job, if so how? Do you think you would enjoy your job if it involved something to do with your hobby?

Yes, I feel let down, when I was little I wanted to be a lawyer, but my parents couldn't afford to put me through the college for it, and I couldn't get any grants either. I thought there would be more to me by now, but I am just average.

Well, I may not be doing my Dream Job or Career, but I am now working sitting on a Computer doing stuff I enjoy. I am a Dispatcher for a Taxi Company, and even if my job is not the best, and the pay may not always be the best, I do enjoy my job, and am Glad I do have one to go too. Then online I have an Online Business I have been doing since May I earn $$ from, and now what I make on myLot which is a great additional income for things I might not have been able to afford otherwise. I find $$ is really though the least of my worries in life.
