When I was younger I wanted to be astronaut or a scientist of some kind. As I get older, the science got narrowed down more into stuff involving theoretical astronomy or physics. Those things just fascinate me.
When I started getting involved with music in middle school (through band) I kinda thought about becoming a band director. I don't think I could live the life I want to live doing that, though, so I put that out of my head.
More realistically, though, with the goals that I want in life I think I want to go into business administration and eventually become an entrepeneur (sp?). Leaership position... flexibility (somewhat) in what you get to do... and, if you're successful, money. Call me greedy, but I want to make a lot of money. Retiring early and having fun with the rest of my life sounds like a great plan to me - even if I have to work my ass off for a while to achieve that.
When I go to college I'll probably major in business administration and possibly minor in music education or music theory - or maybe double-major. If I go the business route I'll probably work for a few years after I get my degree then go back and get my postgraduate (MBA). That's the idea anyway...
