“There is no such thing as fun jobs.”
“Fun jobs? Are you kidding me?”
What do you think?
Here are some of the ‘fun jobs’ you can do and earn quite well.
1. Travel Agent
At least you get to fly all over the world. If you love to travel, this is best for you. You are being paid to travel, isn’t that great? Of course, your duty includes attending tourists that you have to bear along your trip. You will have to make sure the tourists get what they pay for. You need to show them around interesting places and talk about the places. Time to sharpen your communication skills. The perks? You get to travel for free and you are being paid a handsome salary.
Fun factor: Travel around the world for free and you are being paid to do all this.
2. Wedding Planner
Everyday, people are getting married. Marriage is becoming a huge business. Why? People need catering services, photography services, bridal services, merchandises and you (the wedding planner) will be the one to make sure everything goes well. The money factor is beyond you imagination.
Fun factor: The satisfaction of helping people to achieve their dream wedding.
3. Sommelier
Do you love matching wines with food? Being a sommelier is more than just promoting wines in restaurant. You need to be very knowledgeable about wines and food because customers will refer to you when they want to pair their wine with food that is available in the restaurant. It is a gold mine that you should explore if you have a taste for wine.
Fun factor: Taste all the wine you want.
4. Groomer
You will be working closely with animals so the first thing you need to make sure is that you love animals, such as cats and dogs. People love animals (their pets). So, they are willing to spend a large amount of money to groom their cats and dogs. You will be in charge to make sure their cats and dogs are trendy. Job descriptions include polishing cat and dog’s nails, hair trimming and bathing. Love the job and love the money.
Fun factor: The cuteness of the animals will melt your heart.
5. Publicist
Think you can handle the press as good as Britney’s PR? Then, you are up for the job. You need to handle everything from promotions to campaigns and other functions that involve your client (the celebrity). Money is not fixed but you can be assured you get a large sum of money for all your hard work.
Fun factor: You get to work closely with a celebrity and if you get a kind celebrity, you are lucky!
Nice list.

I would love to get paid just to surf the internet or play internet games. Hehe!
I would like to get paid to work out!
Zul, get a job as a game tester at a software developent house. Of course, you’d need to work your arse off just to get in line
Indravenidotk, ever considered a career as a fitness instructor ?
Yes, I realize such jobs exist but knowing the long queue (not to mention competition), better leave it to those who are best at it…
But more importantly, what you’re saying is that we can make a living out of something that we truly love, whatever that might be.
If we’re passionate and obsessed enough about it, surely there is way around to make it a reality.
