If money was no issue...

[Luca72]

Let's get personal, Escapist! If you had all the money you'd ever need, what would you do? I don't mean what would you buy, what entertainment would you finance, I mean what childhood dream would you accomplish? Have you always wanted to move to Thailand, or climb the Swiss Alps? Travel across a country on a motorcycle? Learn Kung Fu? Let's hear it!

I would attempt to become Batman. There is no more noble goal, nor any more awesome.

 

[JimB]

In order:

Pay off my bills.
Pay off my family's bills.
Finally frigging finish college.
Sock a few thousand away for a safety net.
Buy a better house.
...My car's twelve years old, I should probably get a new one.
Give the rest to people who actually need it.

Wire. Miles and miles of wire. Steel, niobium, silver, gold-filled, titanium, platinum....

I make chainmaille, and currently have a $150 wire order shipping in from Canada. If money was no object I would have just bought that company's entire stock.

 

[game-lover]

Take care of all necessities and then travel.

Lots of places. I'd definitely travel around the country hunting down all the amusement parks and stuff that otherwise, I couldn't get to now. Then out of the country.

Just spreading my horizons.

 

[dyre]

Well personally I'd just keep going through university. I want to know stuff. I might even try for another degree after my first.

Probably this first; I think knowledge is important.

After that, I'd probably travel to lots of nice, exotic places and just read and write stories there.

 

[Fieldy409_v1legacy]

I dont know.... I think Id keep working with my dad. Im one of the few people who enjoys their job. Plus I wouldnt want to go soft from all that luxury if I just started doing nothing.

Would probably put all this money into starting up a building company and start building and selling homes. Thats the dream in my family at the moment anyway.

 

[Prime_Hunter_H01]

I would fund the research and engineering required to make bipedal robots effective weapons and hopefully replace the tank with something faster and more maneuverable.

 

[White Lightning]

I'd join the Army, it's always something I've wanted to do. Ever since I was a kid and didn't fully understand what it was I would just see the soldiers on the news or in the paper and said "I wanna be that!". Or better yet make my own... I have all the money in the world after all.

 

[Craorach]

Set myself and my family up for life, nothing to fancy but just enough to be happy and healthy.

Fund medical and space travel research.

Get some qualifications and a job I'd actually enjoy. Something physical I think. I'd go nuts from not working after awhile.

 

[Musette]

Being a percussionist, I'd buy a metric crapton of percussion equipment. By that, I mean all the instruments I'd ever need, all the sticks I need and then some, and of course, all ranges of sheet music and method books so I could eventually start teaching. I would be a very happy person if I could afford the instruments I play.

 

[Zeckt]

I would probably spend the money to go explore wild places and die falling down some kind of hole in an unexplored cave in southern china.

 

[Nickolai77]

I'd build myself a castle, because not enough people are patriotic enough to live up to the expression "An Englishman's home is his castle".

 

[AceDefective]

I'd pretty much just live my life like I do, but I would get everything I want.
Probably expensive vacations all the time too.

 

[Pandabearparade]

Start a game publishing company that -isn't- evil.

 

[Esotera]

I'd buy a decent house, pay off bills etc & all the usual crap, then probably spend most of my life developing free software/learning about pointless things on wikipedia, along with a lot of exercise. That'd probably involve hiring a few people.

 

[Monkey_Warfare]

First build a castle to have paintball sieges in
Second research in fields I find interesting and am able to comprehend not just where grants are (limb growth and regeneration, neural development, and novel life formation, that is make a functional organism unlike any other, preferably multicellular)
Third finace space exploration, if possible be first man on Mars, if not my son/daughter be first on Mars
Finally build a weapon capable of incinerating earths atmosphere, build a space station with a decent viewport and watch the planet burn as I die having sex with 3 beautiful women

 

[Agayek]

In all honesty? I'd continue to live exactly as I do now. The only big change would be that I would buy a house so I don't have to keep paying rent. I may also retire, depending on how I feel.
