In case my plans to become royalty fail, and the world doesn't need another essayist, I have come up with yet another post-homeschooling career option.
I was listening to the BBC World Service today on MPR, and they described a man as an ex-football star who also was a billionaire business man and an "all-purpose public figure."
Eureka! That's what I want to be when I grow up - an all-purpose public figure.
I wonder what the qualifications are for that position. Is that something they only have in Britain, or could I be an all-purpose public figure here in the U.S.? I better start researching this! I'm pretty sure I will need a superb wardrobe for this position and probably a nice car and home, as well. Yes! This may be more versatile than either being royalty or an essayist!!

NPR had a story today that they are looking for a manager at Stonehenge. Perhaps you could apply for that.

Oh, yes! That would be a good one, too! I'll see if there's an opening in another 11 years or so.
