Wouldn't see why it would be the best job in the world, everyone has a preference on which job they would enjoy. But sounds like a pimp job.

 

Yeah..world best job is different for different people.
If u like ur job then its u r best job

 

I Actually Applied for this lol i was one of the 33 thousand who did ha!

Was worth a shot !
B.

 

Dont forget tropical diseases

Dream job indeed.

 

That job does sound amazing!!

Includes blogging? *Drools*

 

Well lets hope that the job is all that it cracked up to be. May he enjoy his stay.

 

Well it would depend on whether he would have to spend hours labouring on the island

 

lol. the job is a farce - he's already done it.

the whole point was to advertise the islands. this whole event has generated millions in advertising for the islands.

If he does nothing but get pissed as a fart every night in the pub, they'd still be happy. lol.

 

I think he is very lucky .

 

Because he applied for it considering the number of competitors, I assume he really likes the job... it might really be his dream job

 

I saw this advertised a few months back. Well done to him - it looks like it will be a great opportunity.

 

So why is it such a great job?

 

He will be 6 months on an australian island,swimming,having fun,blogging for a really good monthly salary I think that he will get 150,000$ for six months.

What do you need more?
