Journal Pikoro's Journal: Where to go after a life of IT work? 4

I have been working in the IT field for the past 20 years, and after getting hired by the largest financial company in the world, I thought I might have finally found a place to retire from.

However, after working here for less than 6 months, I find myself, not exactly burnt out, but longing for a complete career field change.

Since all of my experience has been IT related, I'm not sure where I could go from here.

What would slashdot readers consider doing for a living after being in a single field for so long?

      Yah, I renewed it. Like I said, I'm kind of getting tired of computers. I barely even check my email anymore, hence me missing the registration for my site...
