What he said
But along with being a game designer (which thankfully is a reality)
I would like to be a pro drummer, but don't have the time. I have been on stage a few times and it's great to jam, would like to do it more and get paid for it.
Anything?
Travel around the world, see all the places I'd want to and show belgium my middlefinger.

I like where my life is going right now...
...but if I could do anything?
I'd definitely become an astronaut.
there's nothing else you can do anywhere on earth to simulate the experience of a an actual spacewalk. I wanna' be that guy floating around miles above the atmosphere, traveling a hundred-thousand miles an hour, hanging onto one of those giant solar panels of the international space station.
looking down you see your only home, it seems so large, yet you know it's so small. looking up and around, all you see is the vast blackness of space, uninhibited by the atmosphere and light from earth you can see every star and the curve of the galaxy.
meanwhile everyone else is stuck in the 9-to-5, driving in their car, working in their office, stuck with their gravity.

is ironing his panties!
I'd like to create a comic book... or Illustrate professionally.
Either that or i guess it would've been nice to just be able to afford to be totally self sufficient anywhere in the world so i could just "wander" but now i have a son my main priority is forging an honorable, morally sound Being to plant into society and achieve his own dreams.

And since you're so far above them you'd have the added benefit of being able to cover several million of them at once with a single pointing of the finger as you laugh at their futility.
Good answer!
As long as we're going off completely into fantasy land, I'd like to be the geologist sent on the Mars mission which will probably happen sometime within the next decade.
Who doesn't dream about going into Space?
Some ideas that come to my mind are being able to randomly crash in and interrupt TV programs, do some humanitarian work, do some game stuff, be a superhero, and not needing to sleep because I'll probably be too busy with all of the above.
Though Jack's idea of being a daring astronaut sounds good - it'd just be more in the vein of being Captain Kirk, Han Solo or something similar for me. The idea of adventuring across the galaxy banging hot alien chicks is quite appealing.

I could set a world record for flipping the bird to over a billion people at the same time. I'd just have to wait for the shuttle to pass over India and Asia; nothing against Indians and Asians but I'm going for the record here.
assuming we have the funding and public support to sustain a project which will most likely take another decade or 2 to complete.
try telling that to this guy
I'm enjoying myself here in LA. I moved out here about 4 months ago, and I have to say I love it and hate it. Mostly love. Sometimes it's unbelievably annoying (drivers, parking, cost of living) but where I live and the people I work with aren't too bad. I'd have to say I'm pretty happy.
We've got some really good answers thus far. My favorites:
And Jacks, purely for this line:
To those with these kinds of dreams, I encourage you to throw away everything else (it doesn't compare to what you could have), even if you've convinced yourselves it's too late to begin again. And to those who dream of financial success, I urge you to dream bigger:
As of October 1st I reduced my working hours to 14 a week (I'm an all-around graphic/video/web designer for a small development/DBA firm). I just got a passport application today.
I would retire from my job at my current age of 22. I would also move my wife and myself to somewhere.... less hot than a dry, dead valley in California, where I could work on music, cars, and photography.
Ahhhh, sipping vodka and lemonade during breakfast on a nice secluded beach.
Man I sound like a chick.
