I'd be a professional treasure hunter- don't laugh, seriously. You know- like those guys you see on the travel channel every once in a while.

I'd do my homework religiously. Research the history of various ships. Retrace maps and try to figure out where they went down.

I'd have a big chunk of capital to start with. I'd have all the latest and greatest technology. A well trained staff would be a must.

I'd live in Key West or the Carribbean with my beautiful wife, kids and dogs who are all just as enthusiastic as I am about the profession.

I'd then hit the score of a lifetime. A large Spanish Gallion chock full of gold bullion, gems, jewelry, and other artifacts. I'd be in awe for months as we excavate the stuff out of there. I'd keep some of the more interesting stuff, sell most of it and richly reward those that contributed.

I'd drink some good rum wearing a quarky pirate hat (because I can), laugh, rinse and repeat. Life is good.
