When I worked at the Imagination Center at the Mall of America, people would
always say that the model builders must make "a fortune" for building the big
displays. I always said 'no, they don't make *that* much'. People would ask
why, I'd say "because every 12 year old in the world wants their job!"
Of course, not one person in a thousand can build the stuff they build, but no -
Lego doesn't pay them as much as you'd think (or hope!).
Definitely a job that you do because you love it, not because you want to get
rich and retire at age 40. Which would be especially difficult for me, since
I'm 41! *grin*

| (...) Or you could get rich and retire at 40 and *then* go and work for them. That's what I'm working on ;) There's only two problems - one, the getting rich, and two, the fact that LLW is in one of the most expensive places to live in the UK! Psi (21 years ago, 6-Oct-03, to lugnet.general)
