after the past few weeks I realized I don't want to own a boutique unless i have the capital to hire Peoples Rev or Archetype to do the PR. The pop up shop has been fun but the next one will be on a differnt level.
I'm happyish where I am with my photography but I would like to get an agent so I don't have to spend so much time hustling. And get a few bigger budgets so I can shoot some higher concept stuff.
I want to own and be editor in chief my own biannual or quarterly fashion magazine.
I wouldn't mind being a "downtown darling" but there isn't much of a market for a straight male one and I would just get paid to do what I do any way.

I'd love to be a pilot, but the cost of training is very high. i tried to join the Navy as a pilot this year but failed the medical :(
Fox are you on about commercial airlines, can you still fly for fun in a small plane or are you banned from flying all together?
Yes, I would like to have some general aviation lessons and I might do that next year, depending on job situation. But it's all about the big birds for me. And doing the announcements with gravitas =)
Navy/military never appealed but I couldn't do that either. Did you fail on something you can fix?

This should go in epic fail really, but a family friend wanted nothing other than to be a pilot. To his credit, he stuck with it and became fully qualified at about 27 or 28. Took about 7 years, and a horrendous amount of money.
Not long after finishing training, he was taken very ill and hospitalised. He's got a serious heart condition which had remained undiagnosed until he collapsed - result, he can no longer fly on health grounds. He still owes £30,000+ for his training. Dreadful luck and timing.
Ouch. Would be bad enough losing your dream and your career without £30k of debt on top.

A friend from school is a pilot for Delta, he got his training in the USAF and flies long haul (Denver to Tokyo non-stop) He makes decent money and has good benefits but he is 26 and his back is fucked and crossing half the worlds time zones 4 times a week is really taking a toll on him.

What's it called when you sit at home wnaking all day?

True story, a friend of a friend fell asleep in a bedroom at a party HFW was at. She woke up to find him spaffing in her hair.

I would love to be a Tree Surgeon but am happy at the moment being a Biomedical Scientist testing blood with my white coat on and pens neatly arranged in the top pocket!

The job I have is the one i want (I make art - and when I'm not making it I get paid to talk about it). It's the one I always wanted. Still gripe about it at least once a week but I'm a lucky boy for sure.

If I was 20 years younger I'd be a sniper.
Right now, I'd love to be Lofty Wiseman or The Bush Tucker Man.
Ray Mears and Bear Ghrylls can fuck right off...

My uncle Ben was photographed by Philip Jones Griffiths when he was Vietnam. He has a big print of it in his garage. Kinda sad that the other two soldiers in the image were killed shortly after it was taken.

I love Vietnam war photography.
I sold my copy of Requiem for £90 to an Italian chap last year.
I needed the money badly then, but I really wish I'd kept it.
I'd love to be a Zepplin pilot. I have adored rigid airships for years, and even to travel on one, a really large one, would be a proper ambition of mine.
To be aboard an old Zeppelin Height Climber from WWI would be it for me. -
