What did you want to be?

But they have never written a bestseller or even had a record in the top twenty
(if such a thing still exists).

Me neither if I'm honest. You've set the bar a bit high there.

Some proper jobs there- astronaut, a midwife, a vet.

I don't know how I thought I'd make an income, but kids don't think about money do they; I wanted to be a hippy like Ghost and travel the world drawing it. Have exhibitions obviously, but mainly talk to people and draw them, where they lived and what they did. I really thought that would be my life till I was 21.

What I would like now, or in the near future perhaps, is to live and wander anonymously off the grid. I'd like to travel the world, on a budget of course, and just meet people, have a good time and move on.

I want to be a homeowner 😢

Why can't you plan to be one?

I am.
It will take 20 years and I will be 60 but it will be worth it 🤗

Nothing big of course.
Less than 300,000 dollars and a fixer upper.
I almost have the minimum deposit ready so I can get a loan and pay a mortgage instead of rent.
It's me and the wifey so it is an achievable goal.

Probably closer to 250k actually.
It will be small but it will be ours 🤗

Good luck with that.

Thanks 😉

Excellent, good for you both.

I wanted to be a teacher, then breed horses, then a fashion designer.

Later in life I considered teaching Swedish and English but I lacked determination.

A diplomat.

Alive.










So far, so good.

Your post would be rather spiritual if this weren’t the case.
