If money are not a problem for you, if there were no limitations what would you do with yourself? Do you like to travel all your life? You will not work, only you'll have fun? Studying something that you wanted your whole life? Maybe you love so much what you do now, and will continue to do what you do now but no money? What will you do with your life if money is not there for you,if you don t need money? You'll never have dreams?If you don t have any motivation to work any more, what you will do with all your spare time? Can you live without your dream to have a good life, which means to work as it reaches your dreams? How would you spend your time? A balloon trip around the world as Jules Verne's book? Me.. that I choose; i ll choice to travel for sure, and i ll learn to play to piano.This are dreams too, right?

Wow, If money was not a problem how would I spend my time.first I would pay my tithes and offer. Then I would pay my mortage down to about $200.00 for thrity years. Then I would pay off the car. Then I would set money aside for my children and grandchildren. Then I would buy my mom a condo. Then I would give money to family and friends. Then I would spend my time traveling to all the states and abroad. My bags are packed.

Yes, I must agree. Reading about it can be exciting, but there is nothing like seeing and experiencing it for yourself.

I don't think I will sit and let my money consume me. I need to do something to kill the boredom in life. Life will be too boring if there is nothing to work the mind. I might be traveling round the globe. This might only happen to me next year. I am expecting some money by then.

Hi Zandi, you got my point, human , I think , are programmed to do something, to work or study, but they can't only sit and eat and sleep. Do you think that Bill Gates don t have money who can make him sleep his entire life? But it still works, or whatever is an activity.

Travelling is great, i like too, but you must do something, you don t want learn something? Just think to Bill Gates, i am sure that he have money for 20 generation, but he still work...do you think that human are programated to do something, to work to learn....or they can just stay and spent money?

Reading the rest of the posts here I suppose my fights of fancy would be very selfish. I would invest some money in businesses. I would like to become a dragon on Dragons Den. I would enjoy y life a whole lot more. i would buy good quality food rather thn supermarket own brands, I would but groceries locally. I would build my own home, but holiday homes, sail around the world and adopt children. I would also invest in my childrens future and get my husband the Range Rover and Laser Eye surgery he has always wanted but we could never afford.

One of the most rewarding things in life is work! Perhaps you dream of doing something other than work? Let me explain that no matter what you work at, there are people who love doing it. To those people their job is not work, but pleasure. Those who love their work, are always the most successful!

If money is not a problem there are a few things I would like to do immediately. One I would finish school and do masters as well. While studying maybe I would do it in a different country and maybe travel at the same time. Go back and forth countries would be cool. Another would be buying every single thing I want but making sure I have the best house ever to keep all my things together. There are so many things I want to do and that is why I am having a hard time writing everything down.

I would like to bake anything I want everyday. I would bake and feed it to the needy. Or I can still bake and go to schools for kids to have a taste of the goodies I made. I can also travel all around the world and if I have more money I am going to put up some charity. There are so many things that I can think of. I hope that someday soon it will happen.

If i had millions to spend I would travel, see all the places that the world has to offer.Go to every country in the world from america to Lithuania.Buy all the cars that are available in the world and drive them like they are not mine.Buy an island and make my own house on it, where i am the only one on it, to relax.Drive around the world in a car or sail around the world in a boat.If i am done seeing the world in one lifetime then I will head out to the moon and build myself a house there.Learn how to fly a plane or buy my own,learn how to Play the guitar, learn how to play the piano which is sitting in my living room.lol. Provide housing to all the homeless in the world, feed the hungry,educated all the people who want to but can not. I wish i had millions or billions to spend.I can only wish for now.

i would all my time to the person i am with right now, given that he is the world to me and having lots of money and no work is just awesome. We could do alot of stuff, maybe firstly i would spend some time doing stuff we love to do together, we would travel of course, i guess that's the best way to spend my time having lots of money and I can be with the person i love as well. Its like double excitement and double fun. And maybe we can spend time making other people happy as well. :) and in view of the fact that I am rich, why not share it with other people, specially those who really needs them, so that in that way, not only I can be happy. :) I really wish life could be that easy. :)

If money were no object, if I had plenty of money and did not need to work, I would spend my time just enjoying my freedom. I would do what I wanted to do. I'd travel, I'd continue to learn, I'd just enjoy my freedom. I'd spend a lot of time in the coffee shop with my friends.

I would travel a lot. Go to places that I have always wanted to visit. I would probably build a nice house and have a farm, so that I would have animals to tend to as well. That's a big dream of mine.

Hey icesmile! I honestly don't know what I would do if I had alot of money and didn't have to worry about anything! I'm not really sure if I would anything that much different except not worry about how my bills would be paid!lol I am not that big on travelling, but now that I do have some friends that I have met here I think that might change a bit! I do know that I would love to take a trip to England and meet some of my British friends and maybe to Texas and some other states to meet some of my other friends! I guess if I could travel maybe I would feel differently! I always wanted to go somewhere tropical and see some nice white sand and some blue water! But, basically I would just want to live a bit more comfortably and not really change that much in my life!

...Hi there icesmile, I think that I would love to live in a place that was warm most of the time, with fruit trees. I would like to see the ocean nearby, without much traffic and exhaust fumes polluting the air. I would then like to travel to the places I have not seen like Africa, Ireland, maybe Switzerland, Barbados. I would like to spend my time writing and reading a lot of books, and enjoying talking to a few friends. Not a lot to ask."o)

If I have a lot of money to spend, I would definitely travel the whole world. It's my dream to travel around the world. I would also study photography so I can capture every moment and take pictures of all the places I've been.

If i'll be having so much money and never it would be gone, the first thing I will do is find a better house for me and my kids to live, and the greatest school for my kids... then I will help my relatives, i'll give them money for there living, lastly i'll try to help everyone who needs money so there will be no crimes and poverty in the world or in my place...
