What Did You Want to Be When You Grew Up?

Ask a Question

Hi Deal Hunters 👋

Just for fun - what did you want to be when you grew up? The more outlandish, the better.

I wanted to be the Tooth Fairy and once I figured out she wasn't real, I changed my mind to a vet. That wouldn't have worked out though cause I wouldn't have been able to deal with the animals dying.

I wanted to be a vet too and like you I didn’t think I could cope with animals dying. I don’t think I could put someone’s pet to sleep forever

A writer but when do I ever get a chance to exhibit the depth and awe of my skills in putting word on paper such that the reader keeps reading the whole of my writing even when it just begins to go on and on and on and into drivel or something like that when I am..... lol
