As per the title really, we all know people who have jobs that we envy, who out of your friends and family does something that you envy and what is it?

For me, one of my best and oldest mates is an explorer. Yup, no kidding, that's actually what he does and makes money out of it, this is him. He's even found a cutler that has designed him his own personal "explorer" knife to his specification....very cool....want.

Coming in a close second is another mate of mine who flies Apache in the Army (I'd love to learn to fly some day)

Got a good friend who is a Warrant Officer in the SAS - very down to earth, never mentions what he does for a living when out and about but you just know that he has done and seen things that not many folk have.
My brother in law knows a similar type of guy who is SBS if I recall. He lives in/near the village my BiL grew up in in Dorset, v down to earth, pleasant, doesn't talk much about his job just says he's in the forces, isn't around much, disappears for long periods of time and comes back very tanned. And is also apparently an excellent shot!

I enjoy my work also - qualitative research - some of it with big auto manufacturers - but I do sometimes envy one of my younger brothers, who has carved out a very fruitful career producing somewhat eclectic pornography.
Eclectic in what way?!
