Hm.

I suppose I'd invest in buying property, pay off my family's debts, buy a cozy home for us to live in, probably become a dog breeder, and build a really nice doomsday shelter.
Yes, yes, I get it. I'm racist and fascist because I disagree with you. Can we skip that part? I've heard it a million times before and I guarantee it won't be any different when you do it

I'd forget about ever starting a career and just budget to live on it until death. Buy a surrogate mother or trophy wife if there is enough left over. Turns out enough money can buy happiness to some extent. Maybe make wall street investing my full time job where I just pick stocks I think will do well. Get a real estate empire like Sean Hannity, have other people manage it.

Philanthrophy, that isn't what we need. Extra money should be going to R&D for developing the technologies to fight and reverse climate change. I favor Direct Air Capture of CO2.

If you were to be rich what would you do?

Postby Unytion » Fri Sep 06, 2019 10:57 am

Start a movement, to end the power of CPC(Communist Party of China).

Maybe I'll be killed, arrested, if I have just 1 billion dollar, I'll create a sea of revolution to drown these virus.

Thought about this a bit and assuming "rich" means multimillionaire, I'd build myself a nice closed-off facility and create different habitats in each room, then observe ecological interactions between the species added. Then pay for a medical procedure that would alleviate some pain, add ten thousand or so to savings, and donate the rest to charities.

If I was really rich, I would pay off all debts of third world countries, so they can actually build up their own economy. I would also buy up all corporations and extract them from the third world.
Than I would provide good sex education, free contraceptives and abortive pills.

If I still have money left, I would pay for the studies of my kids and buy them comfortable houses if they want that.

Going with LA's $580 million ...

1. Revive my financial advisor after he faints when I come in with the check.
2. Set up the appropriate accounts to provide me a no-worry income forever.
3. Settle money on certain less well-off relatives (I'm considering a proviso that they never contact me again once they accept said money).

In no particular order ...

4. Travel.
5. Take care of things that need doing around the house.
6. Donate to my alma mater.
7. Stuff ...

But I like you. I suppose I could make an exception. Less well-off friends are not the same as less well-off relatives, especially in-laws.

Included in stuff is flying to Dublin to buy a bottle of the Knappough Castle Irish Whiskey that was distilled in 1951 and bottled in 1986. A mere 995 euros ...

My personal life goal which I did not reach was michael miliken money and fine. I want to be fined by the government for 612 million dollars, cut the feds a check for it, and say "we are even", while not dampening my lifestyle one bit.

New Kereptica: Since power is changed energy over time, an increase in power would mean, in this case, an increase in energy. As energy is equivalent to mass and the density of the government is static, the volume of the government must increase.

If I was rich, I would pay off all of my college debts, and go to law school, without having to take out loans. I would also buy a house, but not one that is any bigger than what I need.

I would also seek out places to invest my money into.

I moved from San Francisco to LA. I have a different view of what happens when you're rich and as such my ambitions have been adjusted accordingly. For instance, my getting rich fantasies include:

- No roommate(s)
- Off street parking
- Indoor parking...ooo la la.
- A pet deposit
- A pet
- Actual insurance for my car
- More than one streaming service without sharing a password
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

Can you join a community of Lebanese shopkeepers and other merchants? As a tribe that produced Tyre, Carthage and numerous merchants throughout Latin America, Africa and the Middle East I'm sure it must be a good community.

You have nothing genetic to do with the hood.
