Actually a dream job is more like a paid hobby, rather than something you do to earn a living. It's like someone removing "do something to earn a living" from your 'things to do' list for the next 5 to 20 years.

Some people get dream job and ideal job mixed up. An ideal job is one that you really want, and would be the job that you would have in an ideal situation. A dream job on the other hand is extremely unlikely to present itself to you. A good example of a dream job is being a rock star, or full time pro skateboarder like Tony Hawk or Bam Margera.

And Soulstice, by "stockbroker" I assume you mean working on the stock exchange floor. These people are actually "stock market traders". A stockbroker by definition is a company or organisation of market traders who act as a middleman between the market and investors. They sell you stock, or buy stock from you, in other words. The traders who work on the floor of the stock exchange are quickly being replaced by electronic systems.
