An interior designer. I’m back at school part time because working in software is killing my soul! Even if I make less money, I need to do something truly creative instead of kind of creative.

I'd be a fashion designer. It's one of the very few things I'm actually passionate about. Hopefully I'll get to save up enough to afford fashion school or start up my own business of RTW.

I’ll probably go back to school to be a psychologist. Deferred my PhD program several times and then just let it go and stayed in tech. I think if I had gone early on though, I wouldn’t like that job either. My husband and I invest in real estate…I’ll probably work W2 a few more years.. then full time real estate investing. Then hopefully go back to school and practice/teach psychology part time as I please.

Doing what your passionate about can sometimes be ruined by money and ambition… i have this theory that if I get the money and ambition part out of the way before pursuing something I’m passionate about I’ll love it more. But maybe I’m full of crap 🤔

And unfortunately the compensation package is also lacking.
