I don't have the means, technical abilities or know the right people to do both build/race cars and bikes. And I don't have the genetics to be a professional bodybuilder.

However I'm pursuing BOTH as hobbies and am quite happy with it all.

Too old and too untrained to be an aerialist

I am just now, at almost 28 in a position to be able to go back to school and get into doing something I want, versus what I need to do to pay the bills.

Kinda like the path I went down. I just turned 30 when I got into PA school and was kinda frustrated getting a late start on things but first i couldnt do anything about whats already done and just kept going forward. I fell into a prety good gig now with the jobbie jobs so I will just keep at it.

I'm working on it. I'm planning on going to work for a state after retiring from the military, several of them will give me retirement a few years sooner after 20 years active Federal service, so I'll be in my mid 50's and retired twice with enough money to open a bike shop or a bar.

well I didn't do my field of choice because my sig other said she wouldn't wait around for me if I was driving truck. Then we had a kid, no time for him if I'm gone all the time.

now days, I don't care if she waits, the kid graduated from high school and doesn't want me around anyway (:)) but now I find I've gotten used to being home and having my "play time"

I'm not a famous cook and no one will give me a show to review diners/drive ins/dives since it's already being done.

I got just over a decade to think about it, 2021 is approaching real fast. Once I do some traveling and see the world I was thinking about becoming a DMV picture guy taking headshots of all the kids who just got their liscense. I would make sure that they take the worst possible picture
