Strangely, I had a similar conversation today concerning the huge numbers of school leavers - or soon to be - whom declare their ambitions is to become WAGS or Rap Artists. In fact anything that involves zero work but tons of celebrity and the almost certain squilions in the bank.
What's wrong with becoming a plumber? A shop manageress? Something achievable, something that will give them a solid income, something that will enable them to buy a car, a home and raise a family. WTF are they teaching them in schools these days?
Onanologists???
