I always thought that James and Lily were aurors. Even if they 
weren't, I'd imagine that most of their life after Hogwarts was 
devoted to fighting Voldemort with the Order of the Phoenix. Clearly, 
they had enough money put aside that they didn't need an income to 
support themselves.

I like the Dudley prediction. I've always thought that one possible 
end for Dudley is that he ends up getting send off to St. Brutus's- 
poetic justice and all, although that might be a bit too obvious for 
Rowling.
