mrsbrooksathome:
Here's a question that has always nagged at me: In the first book, 
Hagrid tells Harry about his vault and all that good stuff, and on 
numerou occasions throughout the series, Harry having more money 
than Ron  is an issue.  Where did the money come from?  I know Lily 
and James supposedly left it for him... But where did they get it?  
And has anyone ever mentioned what they did for a living?  I know 
they were in the OOTP, but as I understand it, that is not exactly a 
paying career? Ideas?

Taryn:
What did James and Lily Potter do when they were alive?

Well, I can't go into too much detail, because you're going to find out in future books. But James inherited plenty of money, so he didn't need a well-paid profession. You'll find out more about both Harry's parents later.
