Another good one would be a badass FG kicker for a pro team.

This was sort of mine but I would prefer nfl punter- don't have to worry about winning or losing the game based on a single kick like a place kicker might. If you were awesome at it you'd have a great job, good pay and very low risk of injury compared with other guys. League minimum is fine by me. That's like $450k per year and is always going up.

Don't the better field goal kickers make $2m+ and pretty much never get hurt? Viniaterri has made bank.

And they're typically 6' 200lbs or so, so bigger than the average bruh.

Both are great.

Exactly. Risk of injury is very low, you can do the job way, way longer than the average NFL player, and you get paid $450k at the least.

$450k is awesome pay.

Plus you get the great aspect of anonymity and you can go about your life without being bothered by fans.

It really is one of the best jobs in this country.

People always think it's weird when I tell them that would be my dream job. I can't think of any downsides. Like how hard can their practice be?

Go to the gym and do some squats.

Go to the practice field and practice punting or kicking FGs.

Make a nice paycheck.

People always go for the jobs that are glamorous. Screw that. You get nice pay, anonymity, and a job that will last a long time.

Probably a game warden.


Would make 1/4 of what I make now but I would enjoy being outside all the time.

If money didn't matter and I was going into a professional career, I'd probably try to work in sports analytics, and eventually try to get into a front office for a professional sports team. If I didn't care about career goals, maybe a tour guide or bartender on a tropical island.

Def a Tour caddy. Most make $1,500-2,000 a tournament and 8-10% of winnings.
