Thursday Thought

If you had all the money you wanted what would you be doing right now?


Bottomline: A lot of people say they are working for money but what if you had that money. Is what you are doing now really what you want?

    I would do what I do after work all the time. Play sports, learn about technology, brush up on my programming skills, hang out with my gf. It’d be amazing!

    I would ensure local charities were taken care of financially. I would travel across the world. I enjoy history and geography and would love to visit places such as Greece, Egypt, Germany, etc.

    For me personally that is how I am living my life now. I am writing, reading, meeting interesting people, playing tennis, travelling, volunteering with children and trying to create cool new websites.

    When I was a students, I used to think…ok when i get some money im gonna do this and that….and when I did get some money…..I have yet to do this and that….i want more money….so im working towards more money now even though I could probably quit right now and survive around 10 years without any salary (very cheaply). Greed has taken over my life….i need to stop somewhere! But i cant….greed is a like a disease…and greed + frugal is DANGEROUS because greed + frugal = Mr. Cheap! I need help….i need therapy!

    I have money but I am not enjoying it! And that makes life crap for me! (for now)

    If I had all the money I thought I needed to be set for the future, I would only work part-time, do more volunteering and be a lady of leisure by swimming every weather permitting day!

    Gosh, where would I start? Travel, get married and have kids, volunteer, work out and get healthy, garden, read lots and lots of books, watch lots and lots of movies, learn to knit and juggle… many things!

    I would leave my job, go to film school and shoot indy movies that never see the big screen. Just for fun. :D

    Start more companies which have more audacious, disruptive ideas i.e. at the convergence of nanotechnology, computation and biosciences (heavily capital intensive!). Make films.

    Be careful…Remember the quote from Office Space. This question could be a very dangerous thought. All the crap jobs would vanish. Who is going to clean that toliet on third floor where you work?
