Question: I am Ankur.S.Tikekar. I live in Valsad, but stay in a hostel in Anand. I'm doing my 12th Sc. started yet. I want to go in merchant navy, But I'm not that good in studies. I like some adventurous job or any other kinda job.but i need a job that provides me a good sum of income. I want to spend my half of life earning the money and half of it spending that money. If u could help me I would be very grateful to u.
Answer: Life needs to be looked at differently by you. If you plan to earn and then spend, it will not work like that. You must learn to spend now and enjoy life.

Why don't you look at travel as a career. Organize tours. Be a part of trekking and mountaineering, boating, flying etc. This will give you satisfaction and fun and earning too. Seeing different places will help you firm up your own ideas about how you may like to use your earnings.

Accordingly do a tourism course. And good luck. If you become one, please do organize a good tour for me some time say three years down when you will become an expert :-)
