The other day it just dawned on me that the perfect job for me is, sports writer. It just makes the most sense. It fits all the categories of my criteria.
Am I interested/passionate about this subject? Yes
Sports is a subject that I think and talk about frequently.It's something I'm very knowledgeable about and enjoy discussing with other people. So having a lack of interest would not be a problem.
Does it earn a decent income? yes
According to this article, the average income of a sports writer is 49 k per year. For me that's plenty.
Is there are a fairly high demand for this job? Yes
There's a fair amount of openings out there and wouldn't be extremely difficult to find a job.
I'm pretty sure that this is what I want to do. I know I said that actuary is what I probably wanted to be but I'm basically throwing that out the window. It just seemed like to much number crunching and the book I am reading,Actuaries' Survival Guide, makes the job sound really lame.
So from now on, I'll be posting about sports writers and how I plan on pursuing that career. I'll probably throw in one more post about this book about actuaries' I've been reading just because I already paid for it and don't want to let that money go to complete waste.
