Hi! I've recently discovered this site and I love it. Oh how I wish it had existed 10 years ago when I started dancing. Inspired by Bridgette's "You know you're a veteran" thread I'm wondering what is (or was) your exit plan?
I started dancing at 25 to get out of debt, and at 30 decided to retire by teaching English abroad for a few years, coming back to get a Masters in Painting and then working as an College Professor of Fine Arts. Perfect plan. The teaching abroad thing was a nightmare, I loved travelling but hated teaching, and I came to learn there are almost no jobs for art professors anyway, so....
Back to dancing. I'm now at work on exit plan B, getting a Master's in Physical Therapy. We'll see how this one goes.
I'd love to hear about some exit plans, what's worked? What hasn't? What are you hoping will?

If it takes 5 more years for that to happen.. so be it.
