Well to be honest, you can go down two roads I would imagine (unless someone has better ideas). Have a job you would obviously enjoy working with fish (as a researcher/at an aquarium etc.) and not be rich, or get rich, and have the money to afford what you want fishkeeping wise for in your spare time.



Be poor and take care of really big tanks for other people with fish you could never get (huge sharks, huge Aros, Rays) or be really rich from something else and have a huge tank like Arapiamagigas. I am going to be poor but will be taking care of a bunch of animals at a zoo.
 
well the owner of Sea World make a great pay not sure if it's the highest

the most fun jobs never have good pay.

this is because high paying jobs never want you to have fun even on your days off
 
This may be because I'm not as serious a fishkeeper anymore as many peeps here...

I wonder if you get the dream job with fish and suddenly because YOU have to do it, it's no longer fun. Like working in a public aquarium, after a while, maybe you'll get so tired of taking care of fish all day long, you won't even want a tank at home. You suddenly realize, hey I'm spending my life cleaning up fish poo?.

I know a few peeps here could answer that since I know at least one poster ( Zoodiver) works at a public aquarium and I'm sure there are more.

This is off topic, but when I started to train in massage, I liked it and now I can hardly stand it and I dread practice each time. I activiely hate it and I don't know what to do because it's currently my best way of earning money and I kinda need that unless I want to live in affortable housing for life. I'm now dammed if I do and dammed if I don't.

Same thing happens when I work hard on my portfolio, I start to dislike drawing, though I really want to get a job with it. And there's no way you can unless you present a pro looking portfolio, which is really tough since mine got stolen and I lost about a years' worth of work. I keep thinking, it's my dream job but what if I really start to hate it like massage when I have to work on something intensely with a deadline.

Just something to think about.
 
i was kinda thinking the same thing, but my and my friend are playing to start a buisness selling live fish and fish supplies, like bigals with live fish. so he was going to get degrees in a buisness parts and i wante to get some degress in fish. does anyone know what kind of degrees there are in fish?
