What is your "dream job"? If you could do anything you wanted and make a living doing it, what would that dream job be? Mine would be running a business from home and just working from my computer a few hours a day and be able to do well for myself. Please share what your dream job would be, and why you would want to do it?

I am actually currently living your dream job. This is kind of my dream job, but I would also like it to involve travel, or I would like to be able to travel and still work online the same as if I were at home. This is not a reality for me at the moment with a young family to raise, but once the kids are out of home, then I would like to live this lifestyle.

Wow we have the same dream job. I really want a job I can do at home or manage a business. Hopefully someday I would be able to reach that dream.

Yes that is a great goal. You should be able to do it if you focus your goals and work hard. It will come for you.

I've already been fortunate enough to work my dream job once, hopefully it won't be long before I'm back at here in Texas. I worked 3 years for the Pennsylvania Forestry, wildland firefighter. I'm hoping to get on with the Texas Forestry before long. I was a volunteer firefighter for 10 years, and did all my training with the Texas Forestry. I love being on the fireline, I've just recently joined up with a department, I've known the guys there for years, so it'll be good to be on the fireline with them.

My dream job would be to have my own rescue shelter for animals, and I would be a vet. I just love watching all those shows in animal planet that shows rescuing abandoned animals, and I usually think about what if I was the vet, I bet I would have the time of my life.

As a matter of fact I have two dream jobs for making a living and earn money. One is having my own greenhouse with all kind of ornamental plants and flowers. I love to work with plants and herbs or trees in the garden. The other dream job is having an online shop with my own paintings. Selling them I could make money for my living. I have talent but had no time to practice. Maybe at my retirement. These two dream jobs are in fact my hobbies.

Good question mate. I think I'm currently doing my dreeam job, and that is to make money online... I've been earning just under £1000 a week online so things are certainly going as planned. A dream job for me is something fun, something that doesn't kill me, something that allows me to live a healthy lifestyle, stress free work, and of course one that pays all the bills with lots of money left for me to plan a good holiday.

I am already in my dream job. I love making money for others and seeing the satisfaction on their faces. I always wanted to do this. But, as usual, I was discouraged at every step. It was a hell of a struggle for me to set up my own advisory firm. But, once I did, there was no looking back, purely because of my passion. I love this job and am sure will love this till my last breath.

My dream job would be a good paying, little time consuming job that I would even enjoy doing. My parents are consults and get quite well money. That would maybe be one possibility for me I don't know if I would prefer a job from my computer at home though, but consults have to work on computers too, so never mind... Happy myLotting everyone

My dream job? well.. it would be to somehow make a ton of money without really having to work! No, but really..i've always wanted to have my own business. I would love to open up a surf shop / smoothie shop in one. Selling surf boards and clothes, and fruit smoothies at the same time. Not sure if it will be very profitable though, especially now days with the poor economy. It really wouldn't be the right time to start a business, maybe eventually though!

Yea. That is a great dream to own an awesome business, especially one that you take interest in from a hobby or certain knowledge about. Well, it's a marathon and not a race. If you stay focused and keep working hard, there is no reason why you can't do that. :)

In my dreams I'd love to be a professional surfer, as I would get some nice cash out of it + the fame. For fame you could start boxing etc, but well... A professional boxer gets hit in the face too, good surfers don't really. In reality my dreamjob might be a teacher at informatics, where I could say like "work on that" and play games in my hours or just chat with some people like here.

Just like you, my favourite job would be online jobs which can be done from home. This is primarily coz I want to spend time with my son. You see, we all are working so hard for our family, for our kids but in the pursuit of money, we are not really being able to spend any time with our children any more. My son spends his day after school with my parents…while they are very loving and caring, yet nobody can replace a mother’s touch. I feel guilty too when he calls me up at office and I can feel that he wants to chat with me over something…yet I really cant afford to chat with him over the phone while I’m typing away at office. Sometimes I look at him and feel that he’s growing up so fast, in another five years he wont even need me anymore like he needs me now…yet, I just cant spend an entire day with him except the weekends. I really wish I had some online earning options which would be enough of what I’m earning now at office.

My dream job is a writer and luckily that is what I am. It's my dream job because I couldn't imagine doing anything else and I have wanted it since I was a child. I went to university and studied journalism and made it happen for myself. Sometimes it sucks just like every other job but I'm fortunate to be doing what I always wanted to do.

Me its not a job. Or I don't consider it a job. I rather look at it as a hobby. I want to have a company of my own. That what I want most. That what I love to do. Like having a child to develop. Problem is that I don't have enough money to start investing or owning a company. I tried to have a business but I failed many times.

My ultimate dream job would to be an actress. I have always had this dream, but recently it has become more of a passion that i really want to pursue. I am going to be taking acting lessons next month and plan to get an agent, but i have to kind of take it slow because i have 2 young kids. My other dream jobs would be owning my own business or being a photographer.
