Without the constraints of money, our dream jobs might look very different. Imagine a world where we could pursue our passions and purposes with financial freedom.
A user asked on a forum “You Win A Few Million Dollars In The Lottery, But You Decide To Keep Working. What job would you work if money no longer mattered?”
Here are some responses he got!
FARMER
“I would become a farmer. 99% of any crops I grew would be donated to food banks. It’s a mission that feeds the soul.”
“I would probably buy a house with a nice plot of land, and peacefully grow my own food, maybe selling surpluses to markets or even better, giving them away to soup kitchens and maybe helping cook there.”
OPEN MY OWN BUSINESS
“I would probably open a business of some sort in my small hometown. Nothing major. Just something to hopefully keep some cash coming in, keep me busy, and offer a decent job to people in the area.”
PIANIST
“I’m a professional pianist, which means my income comes from a mix of performing and teaching. If I won the lottery I’d keep doing what I’m doing, but I’d love the freedom to only take jobs that really meant something to me, and only work with students that were really dedicated.”
OPEN UP A FOOD TRUCK
“I would open up a food truck. I’ve always had a passion for food and I thought going to the streets would be a nice way to retire.”
WORK FROM-HOME JOB
“I want to get a work-from-home job. I want one of those jobs where people can complete 8 hours of work in 2 or 3 hours and play video games the rest of the day.”
OPEN UP A ANIMAL SHELTER
“I’d open up my own animal shelter. Hire fellow animal lovers and rescue as many animals as I could and find them good homes. I’d hire a good manager to take care of Financials and logistics and I would work on the floor with the other employees taking care of the furry friends.”
TEACHING
“I would love to teach kids math and science. It’s amazing seeing them realize how math challenges actually make complete sense once they learn the process. Science is great because whatever they’re interested in you can always explore in more and more depth.”
BLOGGER OR YOUTUBER
“I would become a blogger or a youtuber. It wouldn’t matter if I would get no views as I already got money in this case.”
STARTUP OF TRADE SCHOOL
“I’d start a trade school, all the stuff. I’d also add a barbershop class, motorcycle repair school, and a cobbler class. All with helping find job placements. Yeah, that’s what I’d do.”
TAKING CARE OF ELDERLY PEOPLE
“I would probably take one of those jobs in my country (I believe it’s elsewhere too) when you take care of elderly people with everyday needs. You have few people to assist over the day when you pick up their meds, groceries, catering food, take them to doctors visit, etc.”
REPAIR COMPANY FOR EVERYTHING
“I wanna start a repair company. For basically anything. I like doing wood restoration, appliance repair, electronics, cars, anything really. I like to think it helps with waste, and there’s a lot of satisfaction from fixing “broken” things.”
STILL, WORK FOR THE SAME JOB
“Probably still work the same job (police officer) but not full-time. Maybe 2 or 3 days a week for the sake of adventure and helping people”
OWN BAKERY WITH MY WIFE
“I would open my own bakery with my wife. We’re both bakers by trade which proves to be enjoyable and sounds fun and you wouldn’t need to worry about making sure everything sells and it would be interesting to be able to try new recipes and styles every day.”
