Space Pilot
If you grew up wanting to be an astronaut, well, you're right! You're made of the right stuff! You're smart, brave, and fit, and you should be out there piloting humans into the great unknown - or at least up to the International Space Station!
Olympic Figure Skater
Oh you graceful, beautiful thing! A creative, athletic soul like yourself should be out there creating beauty in motion, on the ice, at the Olympics! What are you waiting for?!
Brain Surgeon
Clearly you should be putting your abilities to work saving lives as a star brain surgeon! You're smart, you like helping people... why not?!
Safari Veterinarian
As soon as you said you like helping animals, I knew it. You should be a veterinarian at the safari! You've got the guts, you've got the brains, who else do you think is going to take care of those rhinos and wilderbeest?!
Celebrity Billionaire
What you need is two things: to be famous, and to be filthy, filthy rich. You're good with people, and that will help, and you know how to look out for yourself, which is probably the main thing for the rich-and-famous life. No go and make your first billion. Thank me later!
UN Secretary-General
It's obvious, isn't it? You should be the Secretary-General of the United Nations, which is basically like being President of the World except you have practically no actual power. I mean, you're good with people, you're smart, and you want to help people... What job could be better?!
Roboticist
Okay, it might sound too awesome to be true, but you should be designing and making real-life robots! You're smart, you're okay spending time alone (machines don't count!), and you're creative, so you basically fill all the job requirements already. What are you waiting for?
Underwater Archeologist
It's the perfect job for you! You've got the brains and you've got the guts, so let's get down to the bottom of that ocean and find some awesome ancient stuff!
Musical Superstar
You got to get out there and shine! A creative, extroverted soul like you has to work that talent and touch everyone's hearts - through music, of course! What are you waiting for?
Crazy Genius Painter
Drop everything, get a canvas, lock the doors, and get to work! That crazy, beautiful creative mind of yours needs to be making art! You'll thrive in the seclusion, without pesky people bugging you, and you owe it to the world to let your creativity shine!
