Go watch "High Fidelity". I'd like to be John Cusack in that movie. I would love to own a record store and hang out with vinyl junkies and just... talk music. Oh, and DJ on the side.

Sigh... 'Tis but a dream.

I've taught English in both Korea and Japan. PM me if you are serious about it and I can try to give you some info if you want some.

Honestly, I love my current job but don't consider it a dream job because of all the grading. I am a middle school science teacher.

As for any other job I would want would to own a comic book/used video game store (mainly retro). I wold want to make it Borders like where there would be seating for pursuing the items and to encourage discussion and hanging out.

I think that shows in the quality of your work
Thanks, I appreciate it!

For the record, porn is actually a difficult job for guys. Sure, you do get to spend your days having sex with beautiful women, and a lot of them are actually pretty cool, but you also often have to maintain a certain level of physical fitness and grooming standards, be checked regularly by a doctor for any sign of disease (which will result in quarantine and blacklisting if you come up positive), and you must be able to perform on command in front of a crowd made up mostly of men. In fact I've seen a few interviews with porn stars where they say it's actually a pretty tough industry on men. Granted, for a chance to make it with certain porn stars it may just be worth it. But I'm warning you, it's not easy.

I heard somewhere that a lot of guys in porn have to start off doing homosexual porn for some reason. And that's not cool.

The old Gay for Pay. It's pretty much the only way to get experience in it, since they're in demand. It's like straight porn. The girls don't find it hard to get work if they're good looking. If you're a good looking guy and can perform you're not going to struggle to find gay porn work. Build up your contacts and network your way into straight porn. At the end of the day, it's just a job. Nobody is forcing them into gay shoots, it's just a short cut.
