A fun LearningAndLife.com poll question, “What job would you like to have if money were no object?”, questioned respondents about their dream jobs. A surprising 58 percent want to own their own business, money aside (http://www.learningandlife.com). Teaching ranked as the second most well loved job, while bartending and circus clown jobs were the least well loved. To help those poll respondents and other professionals and students make their dreams a reality, LearningAndLife.com features career tips, educational advice and school listings.

Nearly six out of 10 visitors polled would want to own their own business if money were no object, and close to one-third (30 percent) would want to be teachers. Only 4 percent want to be circus clowns, and 8 percent want to be bartenders.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the growth rate for small businesses without paid employees, which make up 70 percent of all small businesses, was 5.7 percent between 2002 and 2003. This is the largest rate of increase since the Census Bureau started releasing such statistics in 1997. Small businesses also netted a total of $ 830 billion in 2003, up from up from $ 586 billion in 1997.

“On the job fulfillment and a significant source of income can both coexist,” writes dream job coach Joe Garfinkle on his Web site. “Once money is no longer the dominating concern, you will start to see beyond your financial limitations into the realm of limitless possibilities.”
