I'm going to build guitars, furniture, and try my hand at making a few pairs of skis.  I have the guitar construction training and a lot of tools.  I just need a permanent space to set up shop and buy a few power tools.

Probably some type of consulting or management position.  I'm majoring in accounting right now but I really don't want to do auditing for the rest of my life.

I am either going to get like a business degree and work for some ski company or maybe try to become a lawyer and be a ski companies lawyer. What i would really like to try to do is start a wake ski company, there is so much potential there. It is like freesking 10ish years ago.

i also want to be a professional skier, but being that there are a tremendous amount of amazing skiers out there, i dont think it will happen. this being stated, i want to work in a ski shop, probably working every posission, and just making enough to ski, eat, and afford a small house.

Gahh I ask myself this question every day now, im getting to the point where I have to make some decisions but not sure which direction I want to go.  I am considering going back to England and doing my masters.  If I don't do that, i will probably upgrade my medical training to basic paramedic and try and get on with the local fire department, or possibly Van City Fire.  If I don't do either of those most likely go into education.  I have no desire to use the business portion of my degrees anymore.
