Best job in the world

[944fan]

Following the worst job in the world thread what is the best job in the world?

Watching the F1 at the weekend and I was thinking probably Bernd Mayländer's must be pretty close. Travel round the world, occasionally drive a suped-up car round a race track, little stress (ok so he has to be careful not to bin it, but he is hardly on the limit), I guess he is fairly well paid.

Any others? Top surgeon must be good, saving lives etc but must be very stressful and offset by the patients who don't make it.

I'd have thought driving an F1 car meself.......

Yeah, bags of pay and lots of fun. But it is dangerous and plus its pretty cut throat, if you aren't winning then you are out.

Fast jet pilot in the RAF?

How much is the pay? Plus the risk of being shot down. Although I guess that is fairly low.
