Since I was little I was always interested in money. I designed my first mansion when I was eight. It was 30 stories high, had an Olympic sized swimming pool on the top, a rollercoaster, and enough room in the garage for a small town. Now that has gotten a little more reasonable now but it still will need a lot of money for me to live in my dream scenario. The first career I wanted was inventor, then an architect (first mansion phase), then a doctor, to a vet, and finally back to a doctor. The thing is whenever I pictured myself in these fields I was always the best, and made the most money, and had the most fame. Now as I am starting to get older I start thinking about a family. My ideal family would be a wife that I meet in med-school, and when we got home from work we would be able to understand what the other one was talking about when they used medical terms. And then I would have two kids, that would be relatively close in age so that they could talk easier and there wouldn't be a large age gap. My ideal day would be to wake up and look out of the window to see a large manicured lawn in the middle of the country surrounded by trees. Then I would leave for my private practice in my Maserati down my tree lined driveway and through gate at the end. I would work for eight hours and then come home and cook dinner and eat with my family around the table.
