    Living on a white sand beach in Phan Thiet most of the time and parachuting into the US to do a mil in business, having it wired to an account in HK and getting back to the beach.

    I wouldn't mind taking up photography part-time as long as I don't have to rely on it to survive. that's a few years away though.

    My dream job is to be surrounded by thousands of incredible coins, photograph them, research and catalog them, have conversations with serious collectors and dealers about them and their coins on a daily basis, contribute to the numismatic community, and make enough to support my family while immersed in these aforementioned ideals. image

    I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

    Well, you'd never run out of work fixing shift keys. Problem is when the f goes out...

    Dream job for me would be something like what Tony Kornheiser or Michael Wilbon do on PTI. Get paid oodles of money to rant about what I think.

    I want to be able to answer the "why" questions, not just the "how many" ones. Getting paid to do it would be icing on the cake.

    The individual in the mint that makes mules... or how about a Kennedy planchet with a previously struck Lincoln/Jefferson/whatever perfectly centered and bonded together... it would be fun until I got caught.

    Actually, I heard there was supposedly plates of multiply struck roosevelt dimes made in the past... anybody own them or have a picture they want to share?

    On second thought... there are a couple dozen women in the world I'd be more than happy to be the lint-picker-from-between-the-toes guy for... I'm sure it wouldn't pay well, but the fringe benefits would hopefully be incredible... okay, it's a fantasy thread... it works for me.
