I guarantee you there are more than a few older guys with a wife and kids who would see this as a dream job.

Gee, I'm sorry, honey, I'd love to install a new toilet and do all that landscaping, but I've got to catch a plane to Bermuda to play golf at that new resort they want me to review. I wish I could, but what can I do? Of course I'm not having fun -- I'm working.
 
Does anybody know what kind of pay usually is involved with this kind of job? I would do it for free if they are paying for me to travel the country and play golf.

Perhaps that's what they're counting on.
 
I was informed in recent days by some fella at World Golf that this gig has been filled. Back to the chipping green . . .
