If money were no object, what would you spend your life doing?

In My Humble Opinion
1

1.) If money were no object, what would you spend your life doing?
and
2.) Why aren’t you doing that?

2
  1. What I am doing.
  2. I am.

Oh, okay. I might more time off to travel and to take some classes outside of my profesional life. Not doing that because money is not no object.

3

I tell ya what I’d do, man. Two chicks at the same time.

4

  1. Dog rescue

  2. I am, but if money were no object, I could do more and bigger things

5

  1. Working in public radio while spending my free time as a professional bowler.

  2. I haven’t the money or skill for either.

6

Buying old empty buildings, especially churches and turning them into condo’s.

Uh, lack of money.

7

Sailing the Caribbean.

Because money is an object. A big fucking object.

8
  1. What I am doing.
  2. I am.

Or I might be a well known and respected performing songwriter.

9

  1. Volunteering at a baby elephant orphanage!

  2. Because money is an object.

10
  1. Taking every single college/university class or course that even mildly interested me.
  2. Money.
11
  1. traveling the world
  2. I am doing as much as I can afford to but, you know, money.
12

I’d probably go back to teaching horseback riding part time and spending the rest of my time faffing about, crocheting and cooking.

Why don’t I do it? I did it for two years and it turns out, when money IS an object, being incredibly poor is depressing.

13

  1. Flying airplanes.

  2. Because at the moment, I’d have to fly someone else’s airplanes.

14

I’m not sure, there are several possible candidates from “flying airplanes” to “being a perpetual student”.

Because money is an object I need for my continued existence.

15
  1. herding goats
  2. working on that
16
  1. Freelance writing/editing
  2. I am

The difference would be less worrying about money, and I could be pickier about the jobs I accept/clients I work for.

17

  1. What I’m doing right now.

  2. I am, but I do wish I didn’t have any debt and that I could go out with friends after work without regretting what each drink costs. Still, I enjoy each day at work, and not many people can say that.

18
  1. I would post on the SDMB for Billionaires.
  2. There is no such forum.
19

  1. I would fund and produce a reality show featuring the looniest of loony conspiracy theorists, letting them explain in exorbitant detail who and how and why these massive conspiracies exist. First season – The TIME CUBE!

  2. These people scare me. I would need to hire someone to kill them after filming their episodes, which would make their theories much more popular, AND raise the ratings of my program. And eventually the only conspiracy theorists left would be the ones who figured out MY conspiracy to kill them all, which would be true and bitterly ironic at the same time.

20

  1. Make movies with my friends

  2. I am, but they’re few and far between, extremely low budget, and not especially good
