I'm thinking of changing my profession and I want something unusual and interesting here in the UK...?

though I don't mind if it involves travel. I have no debts and have an income from investments so maximizing income is not my priority. I am highly educated with a wide range of experiences though English is the only tongue in which I am fluent.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.

Update:

PLEASE READ THE QUESTION MONEY IS NOT MY PRIORITY

    Try and do something that you are interested in. If I had my choice, I would be a marine biologist specialising in sharks.

    This is for people that are serious and who don’t want to be misled as we have tried many things and have found a company that has been around for 21 Years and pays you to advertise for them. My wife and I just started and are doing well. It is not an MLM company and no selling, no deliveries or stocking product. My wife’s aunt has been working with this Company (Melaleuca) for a little over 3 years and home schools 3 kids and makes $9,000 a month. It is a 500 Inc company and the CEO is on the U.S. Chamber of commerce board. I can arrange a web cast with my wife’s aunt for you and you can decide by yourself and WE WILL help you be successful. It is an honest Win Win.

    If you want to see a web cast (presentation) from your home let me know and I will arrange it as that truly is the way to see all about Melaleuca. Have you heard of it. We have just gotten started with my wife's aunts help as it is a team effort and it is fun. Just a quick F.Y.I. 8 out of 10 people that see the web cast join the company and 95% of the people that join re-order product each and every month. Let me know when you are ready and we will set up the web cast.

    There is a book on Amazon called "Odd Jobs: Portraits of Unusual Occupations", which describes a heap of unusual jobs to select from, including:

    - Bingo Caller

    - Coffin Maker

    - Egg Inspector

    - Fish Counter

    - LEGO Model Maker

    - Potato Chip Inspector

    - Scoreboard Operator

    ... and one that will likely get the highest votes...Condom Tester!

    Try Security, especially if you can get a security job out in the backwoods. I was recently in a similar job on the A1 upgrade, sometimes miles away from anywhere civilised.Doesn't pay a lot, but that is not a problem for you (nor was it for me).

    Source(s): Try 'Project Security'

    I understand Chimney Sweeps are quite popular in the UK.

    Approved Mental Health Social Work. If that don`t keep you on your toes nothing will. Useful too.

    Train as a doctor and become a pathologist or a medical engineer (tissues, cells, materials....), maths/science teacher.... We need all of those and they are challenging and full-filling jobs.

    Changing profession, by definition, will involve a lengthy period of training.

    Or did you mean job?
