As a child I always wanted to be a car mechanic, but bad luck never made this happen. At school this class was full, for my military service I was drawn. On my 22nd I started maintenance in the petro / chemical industry.

I always wanted to be a school teacher, but when love came around when I was 18, I did not want to study another 4 years.

So I took a one year training to be a secretary/Personal assistant

actually never regretted it

All sorts of things...firefighter, police officer, CEO, billionaire...and now here I am as a controller for a real estate developer trying to start my own CPA practice...guess it's close to the CEO route haha 

I always wanted to be an Astronaut. Then i found out how terrifying space is, and decided to be the neighborhood dope man instead....

I wanted to be in the military. Always loved guns. 

I changed what I wanted to do weekly lol The big ones were Model, Veterinarian, and art teacher.  

I wanted to be a scientist, but not a real scientist, I wanted to be a mad scientist specifically. Then I found out there's not really a big market out there for those and moved on.

I wanted to be a teacher as a kid. I would line up my stuffed animals on my bed, make math tests, then pretend my students answered them (my favourite doll would always get all of them right), and then I'd put them all out in the hallway for "recess" while I graded their tests. I was a really cool kid clearly...I also would bundle them off to my sister's room for PE/Gym class...she was not a fan.

I’ve always been a coin collector and counter throughout my life, and when I was young my father got me a savings account at our local bank. Since then, being a banker, or anything involved with it, was my main goal until I hit high school. Even led me to originally starting out for an accounting degree!

I always loved animals and specially horses..

I did a lot of horseback riding when i was younger, so my greatest dream was to become a veterinarian...

Now im 26 and im a public servant XD nothing to do with it.

But maybe someday, right?

I wanted to own a pub....not a gastro-pub, a pub that just served alcohol.....probably not the best of ideas with hindsight!

wow thats a little story...

when i was little apparently i wanted to be a bus driver so i can drive my grandmother around. i then wanted to work in computers then got distacted by fire and knives and wanted to become a chef. and trained for a couple years and then tried to become an accountant. i never really stuck around one thing.

A car mechanic.

I had identified this job with knowing beautiful women.

Watching a movie where this happened, it was a dream job.

Later i followed a complete different job orientation.

When I was a little girl I wanted to bred, raise, train, and race thoroughbred horses.   I was a huge Black Stallion fan.  I read the entire series in middle school.
