I asked my 3 year old son what he wanted to be when he grew up. This is how the conversation went.

Mama: What do you want to be when you grow up Crazy -Pants?
Crazy-Pants: An Elephant!
Mama: No, when you get big, like mama and daddy!
Crazy-Pants: A cookie! (giggle, giggle)

(I decided to try a different tactic)

Mama: What do you want to do for work? Like a job?
Crazy-Pants: Make Money! (said in a very "isn't it obvious?" sort of way)

So, he's either going to work at the US Mint, or just eat peanuts all day.
