    What would you do with more money?

    I dated a girl about 11 years ago who was due to inherit 2 million dollars . I did a lot of thinking about it back then.

    Luckily my mom ended my dreaming " Oh Honey we told your FATHER I had money!"

    I realized that If I had that much money I would simply pay other people to create things I should be working hard to figure out myself.

    Now all I would want to do with the money ( aside from having eyeand nose surgery) would be to do something I can do illegally for free.

    I just want a huge plot of land with a "Stay Away" sign and me sitting in the middle of it shooting at any plane that dares fly over head MY land.

    Or I could be a hobo for free. Better . I wouldnt get any mail and no property taxes!

    I'd get my teeth fixed so they don't hurt everytime I eat something hard.

      Probably spend it on more junk

        Oh, man, If I had enough money, I'd never work again a day of my life. At least not just for a paycheck. That doesn't mean I'd be lazy, there's tons of stuff I'd like to persue if I had enough loot. So here are some of them, In no particular order.

        (This is my realistic list, not necessarily my insane rich list. That would change some.)

        I'd pay off my house, then rennovate my kitchen and bathrooms. Then continue with more home improvements and landscaping. - I love working on this type of stuff.
        I'd buy a camper-shell for my truck, and a safari rack.
        I'd buy a Stand-Up-Paddle board and associated gear.
        I'd consider top of the line lasik surgery.
        I'd pay off the last of my bills.
        I'd be able to donate more time to the non-profit I work with.
        I'd probably spend more time learning to make molds and casts for customising.
        I'd pick up a few holy grails for my collection, but I wouldn't go nuts.
        I'd like to learn how to be a better cook.
        My Wife and I would travel all over the place.

        If I really had a lot of money, I'd move someplace else, but my list would probably be the same.
        "Steel-like jaws clacked away, each bite slashing flesh from my body - I used my knife and my hands, and when they were gone, my bloody stumps - and yet the turtles came."

                Pay off the mortgage, set up retirement funds and college funds galore, invest in entrepreneurial projects, travel and eat well.

                Of course, make sure there is a large emergency fund on reserve in liquid cash.

                  I'd probably waste it foolishly...
                  Paying rent, buying clothes, buying gas, paying utilities, insuring my car, etc. What a waste of money!

                    Definitely finish off the house mortgage...fly my mom to Hawaii at least three times a year...instead of the one annual trip she takes now...heck...I'll just get her a cool year round condo there instead...

                    ...and with all due respect to my 64 Mustang coupe...I'd get myself either a Boss 429 Mustang (I'd settle for a 302 as well)...or a Shelby Cobra fastback...

                        Wait - so that girl you were dating 11 years ago tried to trick you into marrying her because she was rich? And that's how your Mom hooked your Dad?


                        Honestly - with lots of cash I'd still have the same interests and career. Probably go on vacation once in a while and get rid of the debt headaches that keep me up at night.

                            Yeah - i'd buy a house too. Good call HardyGirl.

                            Sigh - and I guess I'd give some away....I guess.

                              I would love to have enough cash to create and hire an Edison like crew to help me actually flush out all of my ideas for radio, TV and film. If they work everyone makes more cash and see's their passions garner results and if they don't there's enough rolling cash so that we could simply move on to the next project without having to feel so beaten and defeated.
