Been at it for about three years now. Got my first job in Portland getting my bachelors degree in Interactive Media.
Got to work for awesome companies, Scholastic, lots of universities and other stuff working in Drupal. Loved it but hated Portland. Moved back to Alaska started as a Lead Developer for a shotty company here, bailed after 5 months of humiliation going from amazing awesome clients with budgets to mom and pops with no budget and bosses who ignored my word.
Ended up leaving, by chance met a guy starting up a Web and Interactive Design business. Hopped on with him. I work from home everyday, have an office when I want it, pay is great and pretty much every agency contracts with us in Alaska to do their work along with that we have our own clients outside of agencies and side projects. It's a nerds dream.
Oh, there is also two years in there where DanDunes and I ran MotoXAddicts together and I had the best time of my life living childhood dreams sitting in press boxes and walking tracks =)
Also kicking around the idea of getting a Masters in Educational Technology and helping special needs someway through it.
Still love my job, but because of the long and late hours it's very hard combining it with MX.

It pays the bills. I'd like to go back to real estate full time, but scarred to give up the weekly pay check and insurance!
On a Life Flight helicopter for 15 of them.
Comes in handy at the track!
I was without insurance for over seven years (raced 2.5 years during that period) and seriously value my insurance plan especially after two MRI and full low back and sacrum x rays this month.

That's beautiful! You get to help others, see the fruits of your labor AND get the positive feedback. After a lifetime in sales (sure you landed a million dollar contract last month but what have you sold TODAY mentality) I enjoy painting (walls not portraits) building things and/or anything I can step back and look at to see what I've accomplished. Never got that satisfaction from selling.
Also appreciate your and others positive feedback on my afternoon job.
For the last 2 years I've managed 10 FedEx Ground and Home Delivery routes for a FedEx subcontractor, and have flown private jets for very high net worth individuals to wherever they want to go, whenever they want to go there.
Before that I flew the ATR42/72 and Cessna Caravan for a FedEx subcontractor. Can't seem to get away from FedEx!
Still hoping to get some use out of the marketing degree I went to school for.
Almost 4 years later, we are still above water, but not "making it" by any means. I will say that I absolutely love what I do though, and look forward to coming to work everyday, literally. The thing I do miss about the Pepperidge Farm franchise, is that I sold food, and people are always going to eat, recession or not. Dirt bike graphics are a want, not a need. Much tougher to support a family of four with, but fun trying!
Goal is to move to Wyoming, push some cattle, and give guided dual sport tours of the Big Horns, guided cruiser tours of Yellowstone, and have a motocross track open to the public, giving a lot of the youth out there something to else positive to do.
