When I was a kid I was always torn between wanting to be a famous guitar player like Malmsteen or Vai, or being the star quarterback of an NFL team. Being from Ohio, and growing up in the time that I did. All the guys there were born with a guitar in one hand and a football in the other. It was just something we all did. I had good experiences with both though. I started playing guitar when I was 10 years old and still play alot to this day. From 1995-1998 I was in a pretty cool local Metal band. We never got out of Ft.Myers but we had some fun. Had some regular gigs on Ft.Myers Beach and Sanibel Island, and even made a demo. In High School I played quarterback, mostly 2nd string. My senior year I was going to start but got hurt in the first game and was out for the rest of the year. Talk about bad luck. I can still throw the ball through a tire from about 30 yards out.
As you can see, neither of those things came to pass, at least as a career. I am happy with what I do now. I make good money, and there is plenty of room for advancement in the company I work for. However someday I would like to open up a restaurant. My Dad is a chef and we could both run it. It would be a place were you could hear great live music, watch a game on one of the 24 TV's that would be there, and be able to to enjoy drinks at the bar. Nice looking waitresses. An atmosphere like Hooters, but better.
Yeah, I want the wife and kids (two at best), the house, the whole nine yards.
I don't need to be a millionaire, I just want to be financially secure.

Flying is something I wanted to do since I'm 14 or 15. But who knows.... I should stay healthy to really do that profession for the longest time of my work life.
