I would prefer Guy-Who-Everyone-Loves-Because-He-Gives-Other-People-Jobs, but it doesn't fit on my business cards.

Also, I do a lot of non-recruiting HR and payroll stuff, too.

I'm a freshman in highschool. I plan to have several areas of expertise: language, history, and foreign cultures are some. I want to work in either a writing job or a job with travelling; education possibly, a teacher or professor or what not; or a job in government.

I had a dream once, where I was the first gay president. We'll see.

I'm an undergraduate student, twice over. So far, I'm 5 years into what will be a total of either 8 or 9. Having switched from the old fees system to newer top-up fees, moved from receiving government funding to having to pay my own way and been skint for much of this time period, I can honestly say I can't wait to be employed. Neither can my liver.

I have inherited a lot of money when I was 17 years old, I never worked in my entire life and will never work too.

Working is dull.

Hey me too, I dined with the Gates the other night, they are so 90s *yawns* I mean Microsoft? Pssh, what's up with that? Excuse me, but I've got to go and drive my Ferrari to France (oh didn't I mention? It flies) and make love to a supermodel with my 15ft penis on top of the Eiffel Tower because Sarkozy owes me one. After that I'll probably buy France, I'm bored, I guess I could run the country and I certainly couldn't do any worse than old Nick.

Shelf stacker at Sainsburys. Though I'm hoping when I finish with my A-Levels to go off to uni and end up as something involving biochemistry or medical reserch or drug reserch.

Either that or do history then.. well then I wouldn't have a clue what I'd do.

I don't drive in stuff like a Ferrari. I want to keep my money. I have enough money not to work, but not enough to have a jetset life.

I don't have a supersized mansion, I don't drive around in expensive cars, I go on holiday just 2 or 3 times a year. I have pretty the same average life as anyone else here. Except, I don't work.

No. Because I never received a penny from human society. It's family money.

And I still pay a lot of taxes: property tax, VAT, council tax, excise taxes, ...

Everyone, calm down. Maybe he should work, maybe he shouldn't. Maybe he should donate, maybe he shouldn't. It is his life, and getting upset with him for it won't help too much.

Like I said, unemployed due to age restrictions.
I'll respond to a lot of titles, but I preferred to go by Forest.

Unless stated otherwise, I have disowned all of the posts, both in and out of character, that I made years ago. I would like to think that both my real, out-of-character behavior and my in-character role-playing skills have matured.
