I would have done the academia path in liberal arts / humanities. Would be great to study classics, english, history, and philosophy. I've been fortunate to sprinkle a few of these classes into my degree program as electives, but I do think sometimes it would have been nice to do more in that realm.

The main thing that held me back was a desire for financial independence. Even though my parents might have been able to afford it, I don't want to burden them with what would have been essentially luxurious study. Regardless I'm happy with where I'm headed and I know I can still enjoy those things in whatever free time I might find in the future.

 
Funniest

Probably pornography. I was always a fan of adult entertainment. Being around pornstars (female pornstars) is pretty cool. I watched a lot of it growing up, and I still do. Always wanted to be a director of those films. It's sex, what else can be better than that? Only bad thing is that you have a ton of competition in the industry.

 

Probably similar to making it as a talent agent - aka no defined path upward and you've got to start in the mailroom......which in this case is probably driving the cum zamboni around between takes.

 

Work in engineering, that's what everyone in my family does and I started out there. It's fun and I still like talking to my friends that do it about there work 

 

If the question aimed at work outside of corporate jobs - I would want to work on cars. Fix them, clean them, modify them. Not just gas ones, but also the future of electric vehicles.

If the question is aimed at other corporate jobs, probably strategy, innovation or product development for a tech related business.
