Did you ever want to be rich or a beach bum? Of course, you will have to move to another location if you are land locked as I currently am. There is a way to be a rich beach bum, and yes, it can happen to you, if you know where to look.

The other day I was reading about an island over in Australia
that needs a caretaker and I was thinking to myself that I want that job. Imagine being paid to be a beach bum, and paid well I might add. The salary is one hundred and five thousand dollars a year, making this the perfect job for a sun loving beach bum.

Most of us struggle to pull in 20,000 to 40,000 a year doing boring jobs or typing our brains out as freelance writers. How would you like to make 105,000 for enjoying life as a rich beach bum? I am quite serious the owners of this Island
are looking for someone to come over and be the caretaker and in return, you get the nice salary to make sure everything is fine on the island.

The job requires a few things like walking on the pristine beaches, snorkeling and do minor tasks according to the new article I read. Heck I would work 8 hours a day watching the island from my deck as I publish the require blogs, web logs, and create a novel or two.

The 'tasks' the rich beach bum caretaker would need to do are maintain a blog, create photo diaries, and live the life style. The carefree laid back life style of a beach bum is something I could handle.

Imagine a huge salary to snorkel on the Great Barrier Reef and swim among the fish in the deep blue sea, yes this is the perfect life for a parrot head like me. Crank the Jimmy Buffett and I will be content to do my entire tasks, and as a special treat, I would love to have him visit me on the island.

I mean come on whom better to teach me how to be a rich beach bum other then Jimmy Buffett. I would love a small live concert experience on a beach with Jimmy. Imagine yourself and thirty close friends enjoying this once in a lifetime event.

Yes, I could stay in the rent-free three-bedroom house, but heck I would use the entire year as a rich beach bum sleeping under the stars while listening to the waves crash against the shore. You have to admit it would be the perfect job, and hey it is Australia
and you have to love those accents.

By day, I do my work and by the three or fourth month I would have a tan and be in shape enough to do the required media chats! It is a dream job but it is a reality for one lucky person, and it does include free airfare from your home country.
