I think JohnThainsLimoDriver would answer that better than I can.

#43

History professor most likely… hell I considered quitting finance to go back and take a masters. In the end I’d prefer to keep it as a hobby though. I’d enjoy it a lot less if I had to do it as a career.

#44

navy seal… still considering becoming a seal, aka kicking ass, but would like to keep it a hobby…

#45

International Spy… still considering becoming a spy, aka kicking ass, but would like to keep it a hobby…

professional pinball player

#47

How about ninja or drug-mule? Actually I think I would want to install solar panel systems

#48

I’m an engineer, but if I didn’t want to do finance, I’d be working in international aid, or an economist, or a therapist

#49

Seems like a lot of people want to be a therapist in here. Has anyone looked into how much extra school would be involved in that. I would guess a solid 7 years!

That’s when I buried my face in my hands and started crying

I’d be teaching tennis – it’s pretty much the only type of job that would pay reliably well, and at least give me enough sustainable income while I spent the remainder of my free time working on biz school apps

#58

I’m pretty sure that I’m better than that. Also, good coaches can still earn pretty decent livings even down in Texas; the bigger challenge is establishing a client base. That being said, freelance instructors that are around the NTRP 4.5 level regularly charge $40-45/hour net of court fees, and that certainly would be good enough for me. Besides, I’d be having fun too and it’s hard to put a price on that.

So $45/hour, 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year = $90,000. Assuming you are very successful at sourcing clients, you can cut that number by about a third so you’re basically pulling in 60Gs a year as a full-time tennis coach. Pass.
