I'm a plummer right now. I will either go for my journey man's in that, go into well serviceing, or join the military. Little confused right now . Injuries are holding up the old K-1 dream.

You should come to the UK for a bit. Plumbers here can earn £80k ($160K) a year here

I sell network management and security software to large businesses.

This is one of those questions that makes me laugh. I've had a ton of different jobs- from computer jobs to restaurant jobs, to sales, to electrician, to construction, to emt, to being a soldier. Everything and anything in between.

So now when people ask me what I do for a living I just talk about what makes me feel alive. Like working out, training martial arts, reading books and the like. No matter how much money I'm making or how "cool" the job I'm doing is they never seem like a living to me. I just don't want to fall into that category most Americans do which is "Live to work." I want to "Work to live". What happens in between all of this other stuff is just filler.



That's a sweet philosophy for life. Propology coming your way

I work as an accounts receivable specialist for a medical billing company, and trust me, if this English plumber gig is as good as has been said, I will be booking a flight ASAP to England to start my new career.

I was a sub-prime mortgage broker for 3 years until our economy phased out that niche.

The past year I've been working retail sales while putting together a business plan to open up a sports bar.
