I'd like to pursue graduate studies in Philosophy. I do need to support myself, so I was wondering what are the careers that students of philosophy take up after their studies? I do intend on writing a book, but I think it would take a long time to complete. I am not that interested in teaching.

You will probably need to specialize on something. Ethics seems to be a field that is getting a lot of attention lately and lots of corporations, hospitals and organizations are hiring Ethics officers to oversee their policies.

A philosophy degree will help anyone who takes a job where one is required to think.
I have an undergradute degree in Math (with two years of graduate work in Math), an MBA and a PhD in Finance. But I find my two years of graduate work in Philosophy to be the most important part of my education.

You can work in Macdonald while reading a book in Philosophy.
