Apparently I buy and sell crappy old cars for meager (or non-existent) profits.

me too!

beer goggle optometrist on the side.

i've done a lot of "jobs" other than this, but it seems like i keep getting sucked back in to the car thing. every other day i have to take a deep breath to prevent leaving... has it's upsides, but more downs.

eventually, i want to have the title of "eccentric billionaire", but i haven't seen many openings.

I look after wireless IT networks and some rf stuff...pretty boring for the most part, but I get to go to cool places...and sometimes not so cool... :-\  I spend a lot of face time behind the wheel just getting around, yakking on the phone a lot and work mostly by myself.  I like what I do, but the long hours can get tiresome and lots of hurry up and wait type of issues due to the logistics of working in remote areas in many cases can try the patience.  The thing I like most is the flexibility as I manage my own schedule and am not tied to a physical office.  I'm basically a nomad and it suits me very well... :)
