I'm sure that most of us dream of one day being about to spin for a living and being popular and skilled enough to have gigs all over the world with the best DJ's and at the same time getting paid for it.
Just wondering what you guys think you will end up doing for jobs if you can't support yourself with DJ'ing, are you in college or do you have jobs now? I'm not trying to sound negative 'cause I know that enough determination and confidence can take you anywhere but I think about this alot. I'm in college now so I know that I can get a job after I graduate but to be honest, nothing really interests me as much at electronic music, spinning, producing tracks and anything else related, so I find it hard to spend the rest of my life doing something that I'm not really in to. Anyway's just wondering what everyone else thought about this... Thanks!

The dream will always be to produce my own music and play it out to a crowd.
Other than that I make a good tech support nerd
I'm currently an IT dude and safety officer where I work
Im only 19 so I got plenty of time to aim for the career that I want

Was thinking about DJ'ing but to make more money decided to study for IT specialist. Especially that I like 'puters a lot.

I'm graduating from electrical engineering soon. That means I'm going to spend most of my adult life begging for money on the streets.
Eh... it's a living. The more insane you act, the more money you get. Maybe at some point I'll commit a petty crime and get myself thrown in a minimum-security prison with free food and TV and gym.

You've obviously never seen a Canadian jail. The folks in the Kingston penitentiary get better food, better accomodations, and I think a better education than we get in university.
Mental asylums are good too though. The only hard part is proving that you're insane, because psychiatrists cost money.

ah yes. i'm sure canadian jails are palaces compared to the overcrowded cess pools of jails they have here in california
eh you don't have to pay a psych to have him say your insane. read up on schizophrenia or some other mental disorder and just act out in the streets
maybe do some petty theft, make sure you get caught. make up some crazy story about your horrible upbringing and plead insanity
