I don’t care about the kids under 30. The funnier the better, and the older you are the more I want to know: what would you like to be when you grow up?
Achievable goals fall short of true potential.

Who would listen to him? He wouldn’t know if he was coming or going without observing red-shift or blue-shift.
Retired, so I finally have time to finish the dozens of personal projects that I’ve started in my first 36 years.
You will only start new ones, never finish the old ones
Shush, let an old man dream.
Since I’d be cremated, probably some coral reef
I’m 35 and when I grow up I want to be psychotherapist. However, I hate university. Fun!
I would like to be with two chicks at the same time. Other than that, nothing. I want to be happy and I think that would make me pretty happy for quite awhile.
What’s stopping you? No money? :D

Language designer for a widely used programming language. Basically I want to be Brian Goetz
If I grow up, I failed. 43 years and counting, I’m still on the winning path. Aged? Yes. Matured? A bit. Grew up? Hell no.
So many things. Sometimes I feel like going into politics, because everything there is so crazy. I take this as a sign that my brain is fried from too many meetings.
It would be cool to do a startup making something cool, but honestly I don’t want to put in the extra hours and I don’t want to risk the comfortable lifestyle my current job provides.
Older
Either to be a rockstar or a game developer or an author / journalist.
Yup, I wanna be an author or a journalist as well.
A scientist. It’s never going to happen because I’m 72. At school I was pushed into languages, history etc because I wasn’t good at maths. I was good at general science though, especially chemistry, and I enjoyed it.
After I retired I took up beekeeping and have lately rediscovered my love of science. I have two microscopes and am studying bee anatomy and pollen identification. There’s an exam later in the year for a certificate that will open further areas of study, but I doubt my skills are up to the challenge (eg dissecting a bee in front of the examiner). However, I am really enjoying the whole process of making slides and examining them. I would have loved doing this as a job.
healthy and still able to think enough to make some AWESOME SHIT
I want to be a great parent, and be able to make games and/or music for a living - dream I shall!
Short of that, I want to have a pet penguin and live in a quirky house by the sea like a character in some kids book, that sounds excellent.
