Does anyone here have any good ideas about what to do with the knowledge of 7 languages?

I don´t know your level at these languages or the causes of your learning. But I have
some ideas:

*You can read foreign literature by the originals. It´s very interesting.
*It´s possible getting a stranger job like Secret Agent, Astronaut, Übermodel,
International Executive or something like.
*Diplomacy would be a option, it gives good position, money and free travels.
*Or you coulg get foreign friends.

I wait be been useful.

Why did you learn them in the first place?

Anything you can do with 1, multiplied by 7.

@ Gorgoll2: Thank you for the nice ideas. Astronaut sounds cool, but I'm not that much
into physics :p
Diplomacy would be an option indeed, but the exams are quite tough I heard and I don't
have a college degree, yet. I'm still a student.

@ hrhenry: Passion (for some of them), coincidences, travels, international schools,
multinational family, and the ability to soak them up easily.

@ Arekkusu: Like what? :)

Are we talking eventual knowledge or actual knowledge? And what kind of knowledge?
