Would you have ever wanted the same job or kind of job that your parent(s) had? [I Have a Career]

Did you go into the "family business"? How different is your career from what your parents' careers were?

My dad has always worked in finance, including as an investment broker and a venture capitalist (he is retired now). Neither career nor the lifestyle involved with those careers has ever appealed to me. I love my dad but he knows I will not be going into a similar line of work and that I am preparing more for a career in education. (My mom has not worked since before I was born; she does volunteer, though).

My mother died early in my life 5 to be exact. My Dad has been a welfare abusing, worthless abusive person his entire life. Whatever you choose to do I wish you the best in your endeavors. Me.. I have a great job with good benefits. Work for the Local Schools. Will retire from there.
