Don't let her fool you, she has a big heart but I'm sure she would find some time for day spas and a few shopping malls in there somewhere. :redface:

I would certainly like to be in a position to help my friends and family achieve their righteous goals and dreams. I would also like to be able to help those who really need help and don't have a way to voice their needs. For me personally, money can't buy what I want, I would choose better health. Other than that I'm already living the dream (family is healthy, kids are staying out of trouble, new house, no mortgage, no debt). Seriously, what more could I ask for? ;)

As far as cars go I guess I would really like to be driving a Saleen S7 but would gladly settle for a cherry 70 Drag Pack Mach 1.
 
I woul still work. I know its crazy but i enjoy work. I would however have the fincial freadom to do what I want. If i really hated my job i wouldhave no reason to stay. I tink it would make work more of a habby then a job.

I think i would also just enjoy myself. Collect scotch and wine, go out to dinners and plays. Maybe the ballet. I think i would enjoy the money on day to day things
 
I voted for other.
I would:

1. Buy a nice home on 30+ acres with a nice 3-5 car garage.

2. Buy whatever vehicle(s) I wanted, ie.... '23 T-Bucket, rat rods, and other OLD cars. Nothing like good old American Muscle... Whatever my wife wants as well. Nothing too exotic....... I like Simple

3. Invest and SAVE for my Childrens Future, so they can have a better life than I did.

4. Cancer Community, I would spend most of my time working with the Cancer Community in any way I could, such as donations and volunteering.

5. Just relax and enjoy family and friends on my property.

6. I would still work some too. I am not much of a lazy person. I would go nuts doing nothing.


Ahhhhhhh....... the day dreams.....

7. Buy everyone here a tub of their favorite wax...LOL

Hey Sparkie that was very cool ...But I want one of those International Trucks...

Now if I had that kind of money..I would buy a big tract of land in the Mountains...build a comfortable home that would get me of the grid and be self efficient...I would also build a home for my son close by so I could spend time with him before I leave this earth...

I would take care of my family ..pay sisters house off...help her with my niece going to medical school...I would help young children with medical problems...

Give to organizations to help dogs find a good home rather than be gassed..

Build a 5 car detail center for Sparkie..and put a rat engine in joeP's Buick with a custom paint of the Soprano's on it...lol...

I am not a materialistic person so I would not have alot of cars..but the one thing I would get is that big International pick up truck ....

Oh one more thing..I would build a camp for underprivileged inner city kids ..so they could see what life is about and hopefully set their goals to educate them selves and set goals to better them selves and move on in life....instead of being gang bangers...young children are America's most Important resource...they are the future ....

No mortgage. My wife and I made that one of our priorities when first married. We both had good jobs but lived like we were unemployed. Saved everything we could. Our goal was to make 4 mortgage payments each month, applying the surplus towards the principal and were usually able to do it. Though we began in a rather small home we had it paid for within 7 years. That allowed us to save and pay cash for the next one which in turn allowed us to do the same with our newly built home. We plan on staying in this one. It is amazing how much money you can save when you don't have the obligation of a monthly mortgage.
 
First things first, start my own product line :bigups

Then I'd probably buy some property here in Northern CA or somewhere I like, not too far from civilization but still have neighbors at least 1/2 mile away. Build myself a nice 4-5 bedroom single story home with a MASSIVE garage, I'm talking 4-5 cars wide and tandem style :rockon the more room I could have the better. I'd trick out my Jeep to the max and buy another as a DD and do a mild lift with lockers and a winch so I could have some fun with it. Buy myself a nice Chevy Duramax and slap a mild lift on it as well, a Mini S with the entire Werks (sp) package, a Ducati 749R with custom paintwork, and who knows what else. That's just cars...And I'd for sure buy my father the '57 Vette he dreams of. I'd continue on with at least a 5,000 sq. ft. shop STACKED with a 410 and a 360 Sprint car, a couple back-ups, tons of spares, dirtbikes, the works. If I have kids at this point those mother suckers would be so XXXXin spoiled it'd be rediculous, they'd have to earn it first though :cool:

I'd travel to different parts of the world with my family and friends, buy a party yaught, donate to deserving charities whenever possible, build a dog rescue center on my property, and who knows what else.

I doubt I'll ever retire 100%, I'd go crazy not working. I guess I could be a delivery boy or something for fun :notme:
 
Quit detailing forever, move to a very small town in the South and do whatever I want whenever I want.

Oh wait, money isn't an issue but that's what I'm gonna do in 45 more days.:bigups
 
If money was not an obstacle I would want a 42ft Grand Banks as a live aboard. I would spend my summers in Juneau, Ak. Serving evening dinners on board my vessel to the tourists that come every year. I would only do this three nights a week. I would serve salmon, halibut, and King Crab all purchased locally and served fresh.

Then I would spend the rest of the week fishing and trolling the inside waters of the area. Enjoying the beaches, mountains, and abundant wildlife and sealife that is indigenous to the area.

Once the tourist season is completed I would slowly make my way thru the inside passage south to Seattle, Washington. Where I would moor where ever I would like. Enjoying the weather of Seattle and other places south along the coast. Of course I would have a permanent birth at one of the marinas in Seattle to restock for supplies and fuel. While driving to get these items I am sure that one ton diesel dually Chevrolet would be my vehicle of choice.

I do all this because the worst day on a boat that I ever had was better than the best day I ever had on land.
 
I forgot to mention what I would be driving.....

I would just put new shocks on my family car a drive it.....

I love the outdoors! Camping is so fun when you live only 45mins from camping sites. I would also like to spend endless hours on the highway, just driving, with no destination in mind. The freedom to live life to its fullest. Maybe travel to some tropical locals, but there is something about fresh mountain air that just makes you feel good. If money wasn't an issue for life I guess you could do what you want. Things are a lot better when you are not doing it for any purpose. Take school for example. I HATE IT. I get 3 hours of sleep a night, so I can pull up my average. I think if nothing was on the line you could just learn things at your own pace. I like the stuff that I learn in school, I just hate the fact that I have to do so well because lifes sort of like a rat race, and it starts the day you are born. I know I make it sound like the be all and end all, but having financial freedom is priceless. When we are born, the ideal that money is everything is pushed upon us. People call people who make a lot of money, successful, but are they really? In this society money can buy you the tools to be happy, but it by no means guarantees it. Thats up to you.
