What are you going to be when you grow up? It’s a decision we start thinking about as early as kindergarten, dreaming of fighting fires or visiting the moon or driving ice cream trucks for a living.

Whatever you call it — job, career, 9-to-5, vocation — it likely occupies at least eight hours of your day, five or more days (or nights) a week. Some work solely for sustenance, for food and shelter. Others pursue hobbies or interests and find ways to make money doing what they love.
