    I'd star in my own porn videos - you asked, right?  I'd also produce music, and give huge amounts of money to charitable organizations.

    Hey, I'm just a horny dude who loves music, and feels the pain of others.

    I love sharing knowledge with others...which translates well in my writing but also in past jobs. It would be fun to be a fishing instructor, a pharmacist, or teaching computer skills.

    I would be a photogropher, author, or one of those people who design random products that are so cool and you know you don't need them but you want them so badly.

    I would travel to the whole world. I would stay in a beautiful and comfortable place for several days, then go to other place. I will do it until the end of my life. If it is possibe, I would travel to the space; to the moon, visiting the planets and any places that I may enter. And, the most important thing is I would do anything that I want to do.

    I am so happy; I am doing just that now!  Money is still a problem since I do not have much savings or possessions.  But I am doing exactly what I want to do.  My life is way better, more enjoyable and  interesting than in the days that I was working 16 hours a day, got reasonable income, spend on good food, nice house - and pay bank loans, creditors, creditors and the likes of the Tax man.

    Now, I do what I want, have small house - actually room on small piece of land - big orchid garden, fish ponds - nice office and computer. 300 meters from the tropical beaches of Thailand. 

    Best of all - I do not owe anybody any money.  The Tax man - well he gets his 30%, but that is not even enough to pay for a week's salary of a clerk.

    I am Happy - I am Free and I would not change this life for the best paid job and all the stresses that goes with it again. Recently I was offered a job in Tanzania as goldmine manager with good salary and shares - I happily declined.

    I would spend my time in charity and helping youth to fight unemployment and dispersion. I would teach people how to contribute in society to make it better and benefit each others. hmm, I may also tell people the secret that made money inessential part of my life!

    I would simply be me, doing whatever takes my fancy on any day.

    Some days, I would garden, on others, I would perserve the harvest, make soap, cook in a soup kitchen, lay in the sun, walk and run with the dog, drop a worm into the water..............today, I tortured a spider, simply because, he or she was a spider...........I drowned him or her in the kitchen sink, he or she held on for dear life..........

    I also rode my motorcylce for a couple hundred miles, turned around and made my way home again..........

    Tomorrow, I might mow the yard, pick the new cucumbers, read, call my parents or my grandchild, show up unexpectedly at work to check on my staff or argue with my hubby, ( probably not)...............


    IF money and time were of no concern................I  might just start that next project........be it more gardening space, or the next great novel..........yeah, probably the novel, if my talent only  matched my ambition!

    Docmoposted 12 years ago

    I'm torn between my vocation ( being a Doc) and my passion for teaching and sharing knowledge and being a full time writer.

    I love what I do now- practice medicine and teach- would do them both even if money wasn't an object- but would really love to be a full time writer and watch those works roll out and entertain millions.

    Writing tended to get squeezed out before but I am rediscovering my passion!

    I would be a lifecoach because I love to inspire and motivate others.  Also, I help my friends and family to have different point of view on life because we get stressed out too much and it cause so many problems.  And the worse thing is we don`t even recognize it so we cannot avoid it.  Anyway... stay healthy and happy!

    H.C Porterposted 12 years ago

    If I could do anything without having to worry about money- I would first continue to write, because writing tends to be very healing for me, allowing me to express myself and focus. I would then share my story as a way to educate and help women/young people. I would like to help people realize that life can be changed at any given point for the better or worse-but you have to allow it and work for what is best for who you are. I would like to speak to high schools and share my story about addiction-becoming sober-abusive relationships-losing...and finally figuring out who I am and life can become good even after it has been horribly bad. I would hope that I could be an example to some that feel like there is no hope for something different-because i have been there and I know what it is like to be lost and have no one looking for the real you. I also know how hard it was to find happiness and begin to feel secure in who I am. I would love to help someone else overcome their demons and begin to heal and find themselves.

    Its very simple. I do PSA announcements for a local college radio station and would love to do any type of voice-over work I could get.  I would like to be a successful recording singer-songwriter or a photographer. Since joining HubPages a lost desire of mine has come back into prominence too, that of writing. I have a creative bent and all of my most cherished chosen occupations seem to have an element of shooting craps associated with them but as the scenario you set up mstates any job regardless of income potential.

    First of all, I want to say that I think everyone should work toward whatever that goal is. Deciding that no matter what I was going to do something I love was probably the best decision of my life.

    That said, I would be a professional storyteller, combining my love of stories and travel with education and spirituality. I think it is such a wonderful way to interact with people, to really listen to them, and to enrich my own life through the experiences I've had

    If I didn't have to worry about money at all, I would quit my day job and just work as an online writer.

    However, I do think that having another job helps to keep my life balanced, so it is probably a good thing that I have a regular job, too!

    I would travel to a different part of the world every 3 to 6 months and learn a new skill from someone who has mastered it.  For example, I would love to travel to India and learn mediation, or travel to Japan and learn martial arts, etc. I know it would only involve a basic introduction into a new skill or way of life, but I think it would be the most interesting to spend my time if money wasn't a concern.

    I would play video games for a living if I could. I've got a crazy passion for gaming and technology and if I could do something in that field for the rest of my life, while making a comfortable living, then I would drop everything for it.

    I would write, and I would cook.  Without having to worry about an income, I would focus time on my book project.  And, I would probably be a personal chef, or a small time caterer.  Culinary school is definitely on my bucket list!
