I too am currently in my dream job.
If I wasn't doing this is would be acting and voice work. I have done a lot of both and always wanted to do it full-time (I was going to say professionally but heck, when you get paid to do you are a pro).
Just a note about voice work. Yes, the actual process of voice work takes up very little time compared to an "ordinary job". That said, as a freelancer, your job is to get work. This can be harder than it seems.
Until you are a well-positioned in your career as a voice-over artist, you will find getting work to be a part-time job at best. It isn't easy to get hired. There is a lot of competition out there for the slots that are available.
At this point I haven't even touched the topic of training. You may have a great sounding voice but do you really know how to use it? Can you do a cold audition? Can you take direction? Like any craft, you need to be really good with your tools (or tool as the case may be).
It can be a rewarding career choice, just be aware of the whole picture.
