What is your dream job on St John...
The other morning, I was thinking about just this topic, and came up with an of having a bicycle cooler cart that would visit those people departing St John on either ferry (foot or car). I would offer rum drinks or beer for sale and call the business "One for the Rowed" with a placard that read "I feel your pain/killers for sale". TaDa.
Anyone is welcome to run with this.

Such a great post I just discovered!
I would like to be Captain John's trusty assistant. I would do things like encourage guests to start drinking at 8:30 a.m. (because you can't drink all day of you don't start now), jump off of the Willy T, etc. I would pretty much be in charge of encouraging debauchery.

Well...speaking of old posts.
To that end and it was #2 on my list, here are 2 Villa Videos we produced for owners to show on their websites. So, now the Biz plan is to come down for 9 days a couple times a year (without kids)and stay at 3 different villas all while shooting content. Sorry but my wife has already accepted the position of assistant and staging expert.

Of course independently wealthy would be the optimal way to move to St. John.... But that's not happening, so if I ever talk my husband into moving to STJ my plan is to do what I do here... Babysit!! I love little kids, I mostly take preschoolers, it would be so fun to take care of the little kids on the island!

And speaking from personal experience she would do a good job at it. I'm saying employee of the rear material.CTBeachGirl wrote:Such a great post I just discovered!

Villa Management and Hair Stylist..Oh wait I do that I work 40 hours a week at my job. Unfortunately, I don't have Saturdays and Sundays off to be with my 8 year old. I come home and do a couple of haircuts/colors and then I get to relax for five minutes before I go to bed. It is a lot of work but on my days off I get to sit on the most amazing beaches in the world, I never complain that I'm cold anymore (well I have to complain about the water being cold right now). As far as expense, it is expensive to live here but I don't waste money like I did back in the states at Target, Starbucks, The Mall, my family doesn't need new clothes every season, I'm not spending $$$$ on vacations to get away from the cold.
PS. Villa Management is a good job, but it is also a big headache. I don't own the business so I don't have to run to a villa in the middle of night to let someone in because they lost their keys or other random issues but it happens...a lot.
