Ask Lemmy

id like to open a roller skating rink with attached cereal bar.

Weekend everyday, basically. I don't care for a house or fancy things, I'd spend my time creating art and having fun with friends - who I'd share some wealth with.

Do art, woodworking, and other hobbies in a remote location.

Be Batman.

Honestly I would only want two things, to not have to worry about money and to live where I want. So much stress and thinking goes into money that I think I would be quite relaxed if I didn’t have to think about it except for investments. I also wouldn’t have to worry about home security or how my pets are taken care of. For living where I want, my job and family takes me around the a world. I wish I had a small place in each location :)

Have a child / children. Invest in my community. Help my parents retire. Get another dog. Buy the fancy chocolates. Probably join some sort of workout class for my own health.

I've always had this fantasy of dressing up like a superhero and helping folks out. Like fixing flat tires and small stuff like that. I'd hire a sidekick to do all the heavy lifting while I stood around taking the credit and making silly jokes

I would do whatever I feel like doing that day, including but not limited to:

• Travel
• Seeing shows
• Napping
• Napping while traveling
• Napping while seeing shows
• Basically napping

If I were a wealthy woman I would retire and travel the world in style, with whoever wanted to come along. Wouldn't even need a house.

If we were just well off (like making twice the income we do now) I'd be out of debt, and fixing up the house to be beautiful, and still traveling but only when I had PTO.

If I had a rich man, like if husband was making 4x his s income, I'd work 5 more years but put all the money away into savings, then retire and fix up the house, work in the garden, enjoy life and hopefully travel on his time off.

I would calculate the amount of money I would need to keep in investments and in my bank account in order to generate, in interest/returns,etc, the amount I would need to live comfortably for the rest of my life. I would then donate the rest to various charities.

I'm a drunk with a job. I'd imagine I'd be a drunk without a job for a bit before the first one again.

Do whatever I could to get sustainable energy going, just invest in all the renewable energy projects. Let's get everyone going with solar panels! Wind farms wherever we can! Free charging stations for everything!!! Oh, your battery tech project needs funding? Here's all the money you need!

I'd pay my workers more and stop being a dick

• Buy high-end items for all of my hobbies.
• Eat regularly at my favorite restaurants.
• Wear clothing that isn't locally available.

Buy a house in a safe neighborhood for myself. Establish at least one housing complex for the homeless with medical, psychiatric, and general care staff as close as possible to said safe neighborhood. Repeat until all that is left is enough to keep said complexes staffed and operational for at least 5 years.

Keep at least $1,000,000 to invest into the stock market in various ETFs, REITs, and LEAP Option calls. All profits go back to maintaining and establishing more housing complexes for the homeless.

All my free time would be spent figuring out how to end the homelessness crisis. If ever accomplished, focus my efforts on the public education system, and praying I somehow have the willpower to avoid corruption.

Focus on the fake company I have created. Spread ourselves across the web. I would make sure people know the name Paranoia Paranoia Entertainment Media Group (PPEMG/P2EMG/P²EMG) and what we stand for.

It would also allow me to get commissions of not just my fursona, but also get commissions of all the other members, all characters I've made up. And would also allows me to get a good vtuber model for my fursona and another OC of mine for when I am either sick or incapable of speaking, alongside a good setup to make sure my videos would be good enough quality.

it sorta depends on if I already was rich with financing setup or if I like one a huge lottery. Im not rich now so im assuming like I won a multi billion dollar lottery. I would talk with lawyers and accountants to see how I could do the following. Half to my wife to do as she pleases but I would encourage her to do as I do with my half. Half of my half goes into a fund that would be very diverse but dividend heavy for stocks and auto rebalance. divedends would go to me to live my life. The other half I would be to give away but split in two. Half for family and friends and half to strangers. I would see if there is ways to give it out without connecting back to me. For the half that goes to others fully half of that would be for use in my country and currently it would be geared toward donations to get campaign finance reform, fighting citizens united. If our democracy was brought back to it would pivot to environmental causes (more important except that anything is useless when the country is useless). the other would be for global and geared toward to helping democratic processes and unbiased news abroad along with climate intiatives. Again all the things would emulate the same fund structure.

If I were just a little rich, I would work less, and spend more time traveling.

If I were rich (but not rich-rich) I would retire, move further away from the city, and make my own saw mill. Also spend more time traveling.

If I were rich-rich, I would fund Vasalgel, lobby for that project to make mosquitoes extinct, and fund a few low budget films per year, outside of Hollywood. I don't know where I would move, but I would probably still travel more.

It depends how rich

If by rich you mean what a child would consider a lot of money, i dont think i could do much with 100€

If by rich you mean infinite money, i would try to buy all companies and politicians i can, make money worthless in as many countries as i can and attempt to achieve anarcho-posadism or something similar

Hobbies. I like making lots of different things and giving them away. I would fix all sorts of things and give them to the needy. I'd love to fix up crappy houses and cars and everything broken and give it back. I hate throwing things away and love repairing them. I think the world would be a better place if we did that a lot more, so I want to be the change I want to see.
