Hello everybody,

I thought of a question today to ask at a place like this.

This is a place where those who love diving come to congregate, share their ideas, experiences, knowledge, etc..

So I was just wondering this:

How many of you are considering making diving a career, or perhaps are already in the professional diving arena?

Also, if you deciding to make it a career, what type of path do you plan on taking?

Divemaster for charter trips? Diving instructor? Dive Shop Owner and proprietor? Commercial Diving industry? Diving technology engineering? Diving Medicine?

I guess I'm just assuming that a lot of the people that come to a place like this enjoy diving, perhaps, just a little bit more than the average C-card and C-ya later!-type diver.

I'm already in the professional diving arena, but not full time. I couldn't afford to dive if I did it for a living!

Gary, for the ones here who haven't had an opportunity to peruse your countless yet interesting stories, you might have to elaborate a little more! :D
 
There are things that Make me money and things that Cost me money. I am not sure that I could handle diving full time, but it would be fun to think about.

Of course I spend most of the winter Snow ski racing (where it IS a competition!) so it would be difficult to dive full time year round.

I will be happy to be considered a good mentor someday by someone.

I hope you are not looking for any sympathy? Your play ground sort of makes up for it. :D
