Default Here's another way to think about it

I concur with what Boyd and some of the
others are saying about following your
passion but be sensible.

Another way to think of it is what
type of people do you want to work
with as colleagues and customers/clients.

Many lawyers leave their professions - despite
the financial rewards - because they can't
stand other lawyers!

I have a friend in the dog trade that no
longer is show dog handler because she
couldn't stand the petty jealousies of
the other handlers but still loves and
works with dogs in other capacities.

I think the recommendation to follow
your passion really means to pick a business
you like because you're going to have
boring days, you're going to have tough
times and you're going to have cash flow
problems. If you hate what you do to begin
with, you have minimal motivation to stay with
it.

As for beautiful women, you've had some
suggestions already for businesses. If
you ever intend to settle down, you might
think beyond your 20s and try to see
yourself in your 50s and what you'd like
to see there - a wife? children? a business
with your name on it?

Good luck.


I still prefer dogs
