I'd be a test pilot, or maybe just a regular pilot, just something I'd have a lot of fun doing and never get tired of.

I would work in retail, and whenever a customer was making a real a$$ of himself, I would let them have it. Then when they threatened to fire me, I would threaten to buy the company and fire them. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I'd probably have a garage and a bunch of cars to toy with. I love classic cars but have neither the time nor the money to support it. I would love to just sit there and tune an old muscle car so that it's big displacement engine makes such an evil sound it gives kids nightmares...

"Please mommy! Don't let the Hemi eat me!"

hehehe
 

Hell, if I were independently wealthy, I wouldn't even have a profession. I would be having fun travelling to every country on this earth.

However, my hobbies would include modelling, surfing, swimming competitions, playing detective and then just arguing my a** off in court. Of course I still intend to achieve some of these.

If you meant what I suspect you meant, then you might want to rephrase your question, since technically it would permit the above response. However, to satisfy your question as you probably intended it: I honestly always had passion for different fields of work. I've changed from journalism to engineering to economics to mathematician to physicist to detective to pilot to law to modelling. But it seems you would rather one chooses one: My choice would be detective/lawyer.

$100 million? I'd try to start my own space program. Of course I'd be lucky to get a tin can into orbit but at least it'd be a fun way to blow that much money.

I would open an ISP ( I am network admin now), with a buddy of mine and devote SOMe time to it, but not NEARLY as much as I work now.
I would probably spend a lot of time fishing, maybe 3mos out of year as pro tournament fisherman in Cabo, Hawaii, etc.

If you had $100 Mil, you wouldn't have a job, you'd have a hobby!

If I had that money, I would do what I love to do on the side now: road racing cars. No ovals and junk like that; we are talking real, open wheel racing here. This has been my answer for the last 19 years that this has been my hobby
