Hi @svosse...

Another great idea to add to an already cool contest...What did I want to be when I grew up?
That's a tough one my friend. If you ask my girlfriend she'll tell you I still haven't grown up, and honestly I would tend to agree with her - being a grownup sucks and I really wanna be a kid - FOREVER... lol...

In all seriousness, I really wanted to be a physicist when I was a kid - I even started my college life as a astrophysics major. I can remember the exact moment in time when I truly understood general relativity, and from then on I wanted to learn everything there was to know about the universe, and still do... Life took a few unexpected (and fortunate) turns though - as is the story with most of us...

I never knew there were actual people who understand relativity. I'm honored to meet one :)

not sure if im late, but I want to join!,
I'm still in school but in a couple of years I want to become an entrepeneur and lead my own company!

No worries, you're on time :) That's a great dream you have there, I wish you all the best.

I always wanted to be a vet when I was a kid, until I found out I feint when I see blood. Now I'm a computer programmer...

I am working and want to be a successful father

That's a great goal in life. How many children do you have?

I wanted to be an artist, pilot, architect, detective, driver, mechanic and much more. Now I want to be a good person :)

That might be the hardest one of all :) Welcome and I hope you'll have fun here!

I will try my best :) thank you

I wanted to be a software engineer and i am on my way towards it ....

Lol, thank you for reading the post and updating your comment :)

Hey there, I'm new around here. I wanted to be a firefighter but I ended up studying computer science, what a twist lol.

Cool contest :)

Somehow we all end up working with computers. I guess it's just the way it is.

Still doing highschool but hoping to become a programmer so when i was a child i wanted to be an astronaut (8 POINTS OF WINNING THE LAST GIVEAWAY #NEVER LUCKY)

Sadly, there can only be one winner. Thanks for sharing your dreams with us :)

what I wanted when I grown up before is,I wanna help my parents to give a better life, to stop them working and I am the one who work for them....sadly it's not happens😢

Hopefully you'll still make it! Thanks for sharing

I wanted and still want to be a software/game developer. I can already see it.

Cool! I hope you'll realize your dream :)

I wanted to be a computer programmer. Missed your last lotteries, I am from the the finger lakes in NYS.

No worries, there will be loads of them to come :) Pretty cool you wanted to be a computer programmer, I just rolled into it and got stuck with it...

Hi @royaleagle...

Greetings from a fellow (former) NY'er... WNY to be not at all precise... Lol...

I always wanted to be a spy when I was a kid (blame Mr. Bond for that). But now I just wanted to be an entrepreneur

Lol, I can't imagine anyone actually wanting to be a spy. It must be the most stressful job ever!

The movies make it look so cool though.... All the money, all the toys, and the adult appeal.

Don't forget the women :)
EDIT: or is that the adult appeal you mentioned?

Lol, I just an Innocent child back in that day

☝️yes👍

May I join the competition?
I dont know If you want to believe this, Since I was a child I wanted to be a pilot but no funds to study cant afford it so expensive her in Philippines so I ended and earn these three degress while working

  • Licensed Mechanical Engineer
  • Bachelor of Marine Engineering
  • TESDA NC-II holder (SMAW) Shielded Metal Arc welding

Currently I am now studying Master in Industrial Engineering
Hopefully I can finish my masters degree for preparation to promote and earn higher rate or higher salary. I will not lose hope what i wanted to be in my life I just need more time for funds Im just happy what i achieved plus I am 27 years old I can do more things,
education is not on the age nor a race it`s a degree that cannot be taken by others

Thank you for introducing your self and congratulations on all your degrees!

My mom says that as a 5-year-old, I wanted to be an artist when I grew up. I'm still growing up to be an artist, even after earning a BA in painting and several decades of making art.

Welcome to the lottery :) I guess you're never done learning as an artist, which is a good thing. Just checking out your Pleiades painting. I must say it's pretty awesome!

Thank you! I am excited about the new directions my work is taking. Random feedback from people is helpful!

I'm in!
