Suggest me a new career

[twang]

5+ years at university, degrees in history and comparative literature. Professional background includes being a copywriter at an advertising agency (hated it), technical writing (hated it more) and more copywriting, this time self-employed (being my own boss didn't help much). Oh, and some teaching too. Didn't like it. It's uncanny how much time I've spent doing things I actually dislike, but one thing tend to lead to another and all of a sudden you find yourself somewhere you never wanted to go.

Anyone with similar background? Suggestions?

What's your financial situation. Are you married or have any kids?

[twang]

Decent, yes and yes.

it would probably help to list things you like to do, and things you think you are good at.

become a park ranger... wait till your wife leaves you... move to Montanna and mail bombs to people you don't like.
