A question I have come across, and one I have answered when I attended a mindset conference many years ago, and something I day dream about a lot!
What Would You Do If Money Was Endless. The other day we drove past a sign in Brisbane that advertised the new lotto system that gives you $20,000 per month for the next 20 years – or was it $25,000 per month for the next 25 years?? I can’t remember the exact amount, but I do remember looking at David and reading it to him – asking him what would you do if you won that money knowing that it will come in every month for the next 25 years??
“Oh wouldn’t it be nice” to win. Mind you no one would know that we won cause we would disappear!
He looked at me like I was stupid!!! His reply was a classic – he had so many ideas on how to invest the money into a “passive income” so that when the set amount of money was finished he would still have an income coming in year after year.
David – being a boat builder – wants to build his own boat, and sail away. But then again he has another dream that he has had for many years, and he would love to put that into place – funny how we all think Money is the answer to all of our issues, but is it really?
I guess for those that are in Business, and one that works well for them, and don’t have to worry about money, then they could tell us the answer to the question about Money being the answer to all life’s issues 🙂
I do remember once hearing “Its better to be rich and have problems, then be poor and have problems”
Which is so very true – life is easier when you can pay the bills, travel, follow your dreams and live life to the fullest. Wouldn’t hurt to be able to go shopping as much as you wanted – our oldest Son has been to Dubai with the Navy. He went shopping there for a week as they all had time off the ship, and stayed in the most amazing hotel – everything was gold in the room!
I am not into clothes shopping that much, only cause we don’t have much space in the Motorhome to put more stuff.
But I do love “Window Shopping” – I do love beautiful sheets, towels, pillows, throw rugs and “Inspirational Sayings” if we had the space I would have sheets to put on our bed every night – I love “Fresh Sheets”
So I could easily spend a week “Window Shopping at Dubai”. Oh and the swimming pool there – I so could swim in the biggest pool that is over looking the ocean!
And it would be so nice to stay in a hotel in Brisbane that had a kitchen in it, instead of the one we had to stay in over the last weekend.
I do now that you have to buy a ticket to be in it to win it! You can buy your ticket online – which David does do – he usually wins a very small amount, wouldn’t it be nicer to win the bigger one. I usually buy a ticket at the Newsagency – last time I won it was almost $100.00 which was a nice surprise.
I would love to also give every month to our favorite charity – World Vision.
I would love to be able to “Sponsor A Child” – it would be a sweet little girl so that at least we could help raise a girl!
And I would help my family – I would set up a passive income for them all so that they never have to worry about money again.
Would we continue living in a Motorhome? You bet we would – never would I give up the Motorhome lifestyle. Would I still want to travel Australia, you betcha – we have a HUGE Bucket List, one that we are cross off here in Bundaberg and Brisbane. Along with many trips to Melbourne 🙂
But I am not interested in all that – I would be more interested in hearing about What Would You Do If Money Was Endless??
Would you change anything about your life?
If so what would it be?
Would you still be you but enjoy your life in a different way?
I don’t think David would want to give up working – He gets so bored so very easily – But I think he would prefer to work for himself – with a few ideas that he has going around in his head!
And I think that our boys would put into place their business ideas that they both have!
Money doesn’t grow on trees, and income doesn’t always meet spending, but oh wouldn’t it be nice to never have to worry about money coming in month after month?
I think that having a Cook would be the best thing ever – or going to a restaurant every night – one that could cook our meals gluten free, sugar free and protein based would be like something out of this world. I once read about a very successful Real Estate Agent who had their whole family working with them – eating at a restaurant near their real estate business.
They were so very successful, that they bought a fridge for the Restaurant and had it stocked with their favorite foods so that every night they could knock off after doing all their paperwork, and sit down as a family to a meal that was healthy. Without having to stress about cooking their meals every night. Now that makes sense!
I guess I am not into fancy handbags – I walked past the “Prada” handbag shop in Queen street Mall the other night – and not one of those bags caught my attention – I am not into Handbags. But give me shoes, now that is a different story.
What gets your attention? What would you like to buy without having to worry about the money?
Fancy cars are no good – my boys love mud to much! And I wouldn’t want to be stressed about them trashing the new car.
Fancy houses are no good – I don’t want to live in a house that takes time to clean every day – waste of time!
Gold Jewelry is not really my thing – I don’t even wear rings – but I do love good quality earrings, only cause I can’t wear silver – it turns black when I do.
Give me a weekend camping – now that I would take over any shopping trip.
Give me a weekend in the middle of Australia – hell give me a week – and I would be smiling.
Yeah wouldn’t it be nice to win the big one! I have read about those that have won – they have researched their names and found the lucky numbers that match their names/birth dates and then put in a ticket to the big one. And then there are those that enter shopping competitions and win trips overseas – I guess you got to be in it to win it.
So When Do You Buy A Lotto Ticket?
Is it when they have the Big One On?
Cheers
