I can definitely see Harry as an Auror or Quidditch player. (That 
WOULD be great, because Quidditch makes him so happy. What would he do 
once his Quidditch career is over, though?)

Another career possibility occurred to me, too. What if he taught 
Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts? He's got a real gift for 
DADA, and he really enjoys teaching and watching the members of DA 
improve. Maybe that's the reason JKR has kept the DADA professor 
position open for so long... But I wonder if Harry would rather be out 
fighting dark wizards directly as an Auror.
