Default Re: What would you do if you didn\'t need money?

On a more serious note, I love business, I will always be in the business and I will always be in the business of creating / running businesses.

With 4 million dollars left over from that I would reinvest that money into passive cashflow via investments or reinvest portion of that money into acquiring more businesses or starting more. I wouldn't really stop for just 20 000$ a month.

I wouldn't stop doing it even if I had hundreds of millions or even billions. I guess I don't quite wake up in the morning and do what I do for the money....


Long term, I am going to try and change the entire educational system then the ones we have today. Kids growing up aren't being taught the things they need to learn most.....

Exactly what I'm doing now with a lot less poker and a lot more traveling.

I would exercise daily with a trainer and really get myself in good shape. I'd spend more time reading.

In terms of activities, I would travel a lot and maybe take some classes.

I would still trade somewhat (I trade professionally now), but with a more long term perspective.

I'd spend a great deal of time helping children, in particular my own.

Random jobs. I used to load trucks at UPS. I enjoy that kind of work. Go back and do that. Maybe join a lawn mowing crew. And, of course, take plenty of sabbaticals.

after you have done it all. at least all that you wanted to do that was of interest. that house on the lake gets to looks pretty good.
it gets to where at some point after you have done all the things you ever wanted you just want to be at your own home in the place you want to be with your friends, animals or whatever around you.

once you have more money than you can ever spend it almost becomes sick trying to make more at the expense of your limited time on this world.

That last comment stood out to me. It may seem obvious to others, but I hadn't thought about it like that. Thanks.

KKF. Remember that time I asked you how whatever the place is that you live in is? And you sent me the link to the Stickman thing, and you were like "haha, chaos, i totally got you?".

Well. I'm still pissed about that.

Your post sucks. But if you apologize, then it might be cool again.

For everyone else. The stickman thingy is like some pervy guy's guide to getting laid from 12 year old chicks in Thailand.
