Hmm in recent times people on the list seem to be always somewhat quickly
insulted...

> I would love for it to be my full time job

That's easy Joe. Just apply for a job as chief meteorite procurement
operator at the museum in Perth.
I read in their annual report, that they want to enlarge their meteorite
collection.

Reach an agreement for a probation period, based on your success.
Promise them to double the number of new meteorites in whole Australia per
year due acquisitions and ask for that performance a salary like a curator
or half of a professor.

Don't be afraid, the pressure to perform won't be that hard for you.
Bring them 2 NWA-OCs per year, you know, that 25$/kg-stuff and every 10
years or so an NWA-EUC and you'll keep your promise.
Hence you'll work only 3 days per year.

If somebody will complain, refer to the Euromet-Aussie-expedition, where the
costs for the Millbillillies and Mundrabillas and weathered OCs they found,
were >1000$ a gram
and buy some Millbillillies and Mundrabillas for them from professional
dealers to calm them.


Nooo, was just a joooooke. (Euromet made also science, science costs).

Hmmm, how would one define a "real profession"?
 
Maybe if one meets with ones meteorite activities' profit after all
costs&taxes
the average U.S.-net-income per capita? (how high is it?)

Best!
Martin


PS: still I'm wondering, how the little chiropody shop in my street survives
the decades, but that I never found on Earth a meteorite store?

It's raining goooold from the sky....?

Better: it's raining CALLUS from the sky !!!

Steve,
  What is ur deal? If you were ever successful hunting, maybe you would be
singing a different tune. I am insulted by that, I hunt in my free time, I
would love for it to be my full time job, but not possible for me. You
should think before you post next time.
By the way, aren't we about due for you to "quit" meteorites and leave the
list for good, again? For the 15th time? It has been over a month since you
last "quit".
Im sure im just one of many people you pissed off with you latest post.
Think about what you say once in a while, it may be helpful.
