When i was a kid i wanted to be a lot of things.
- At a very young age (6-7) i just wanted to be older ( in my twenties), drive a nice car, have a hot woman on my arm and be a wealthy businessman. ( i used to see things on TV that i thought i wanted to be)
by the time i was a teenager, i wanted to win the gold medal at the olympics in the marathon. (my prime sporting years)
- when i was in my late teens i wanted to be a bush ranger and work for the National Parks and Wildlife.
- i ended up in construction. wtf?!?!
so what did you want to be when you grew up?
i know one of my cousins wanted to be a jedi. he grew up watching sci-fi movies all the time though. poor kid. He was about my age, and i'd be telling myself "geez this kid is wacko..he doesnt even know that luke skywalker isnt real"
i guess people are influenced by their environment. if you're dads a banker you probably want to be a banker or something related to finance.
shoot away..id love to see what people wanted to be when they grew up
disclaimer: no offence meant to all you sci-fi fans
