Obviously this is for both, men and women, you know, the song “if I was a rich man” and i saw the meme with…
sigh just answer the question
If I had millions I’d buy some land and build a space for artists and musicians to come and hang out and make things.
If I had billions I’d disrupt the appliance industry because I can’t find any decent appliances.
Disrupt the appliance industry by making indestructible appliances that share replacement parts. Same heater in the dishwasher as the oven. Sell/rent them as a subscription service. That way you ultimately get to realize the longevity and repairibility.
Totally. And have a microwave with programmable settings. And make an induction cooktop with <1 second pulse width modulation and probe thermometers. A dishwasher with a detergent dispenser. Open source the plans, build them without plastic parts that break and fall off.
And bring back that awesome Sunbeam toaster.
You’ve been watching too much Technology Connections.
- Get a house with a garden (backyard)
- Start my own laptop/desktop line
- Obtain and maintain a naturally aspirated manual V12 Aston Martin
Obligatory.
All day long, I’d biddy biddy bum
If I were a wealthy man
Came here to say this
You wouldn’t have to work hard. You could build a great big house with rooms by the dozen, right in the middle of the town. …if you were a wealthy man.
I’d have one long staircase just going up and one even longer going down.
And one more leading nowhere just for show.
It depends, how rich? Millions? Billions?
I would fix the gym/auditorium at my old high school (the drama club has to share it with all of the sports teams and PE, and all of drama’s stuff gets broken or stolen) so that drama has their own space.
Oh darling, if I had real money, I would use it to sow chaos and undermine the world’s financial markets.
But most of all, if I have to live in this bullsh!t cyberpunk reality, we might as well have shadowrunners/Edgerunners/mercs. So I’d recruit as many paramilitary mercenaries as I could find and set them on the task of sabotaging critical corporate infrastructure, kidnapping any oligarchs we could find vulnerabilities for, and doing brazen, overt terrorism kind of stuff.
The idea being if I can cause enough chaos perhaps the people of the world might finally have enough and force change for the ultra wealthy.
Be Batman.
Buy a place in Montreal. Try to do random acts of kindness on randos where I can. You can’t generally change the world, but you can make personal impact.
I miss living in Montreal, great choice :)
Build a sweet ass house with a wizard’s tower.
Im building the Planet Express building from Futurama.
YES! And then we ponder!
You must be one of those goody two-shoes wizards… I’m going to be scheming - about orbs.
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.
disappear from radar
do random acts of charity
buy senators and media to support climate change and education
make a competing big cheapo pharma
redirect fame/blame to paid actors
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 :)
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star, daydream
Think I’d buy me a football team
To me “rich” means someone whose passive income exceeds their spending.
So if I was rich I’d stop working and instead pursue my personal interests. Ideally I’d buy a property somewhere remote and close to water with a lot of land and start building a homestead of some sort.
Hunt other rich men for sport, and have my very expensive team of lawyers keep me out of prison.
Just become president, problem solved
Is hunting billionaires an official presidential act? It will be when the Supreme Court gets the checks!
