Yeah, fun to think, but just like with actors, rock stars, comedians, etc..., for every guy (or gal) that's livin' large, there's a 1000 more that are squeakin' by.
I suspect that most photographers are photographing babies, weddings, corporate retreats, school kids, etc.... Most of them probably don't end up doing swimsuit models, Frederick's of Hollyword/Victorias Secret catalogs, or Playboy or Penthouse.
Although these days, I think it's probably not that hard to make decent money shooting Internet porn.
I'd love to be a comedian. I think making people laugh would have to be one of the best jobs in the world, but when I reference the wish, I usually qualify it, "If I could make good money, I'd be a comedian in a heartbeat." I suspect that as a comedian, life sucks when you're starting out with lots of crappy, grueling work. I also suspect that a lot of comedians never make it far past that phase (or past it at all).
