You Just Won A Million Dollars!

If I sell two of my properties I will have a million dollars plus.

 

I would fly to tibet, or nepal and become a monk for the next few years. Only then I would trust myself with that kind of responsibility spending.

 

I think I follow your sentiments quite a bit. What I was referring to above, was part of several things going on. Because I was quite new to working, it was a bit of a culture shock. I didn't get the big chunk infront, my income started to build up over a length of time. Ofcourse it wasn't as fun, but it allowed me to acclimatise better.
Altho I still don't really to talk to people about money.

Some people think that when you come into money its best not to spend it to begin with. Your life can change for better and/or worse.
A friend of mine tells me that he considers his wealth to have been a curse. On account of the scumbags who wanted to "befriend" him.

Nowadays, a million USD can give someone a good life in a lot of places. But in some of Central London, NYC and places like that, it might not get you that much of an apartment. The idea of a "millionaire" living on yachts and the like is long gone I think.

 

Some people say the latter can be MUCH more expensive...!

I lost 15k usd in about 30mins on a similar thing, maybe 12 yrs ago...
To be honest, I think the lesson was quite "cheap" compared to what I've seen happen with others.
I know one guy, lost multi millions. Another went on "holiday" for 5 yrs... :hitsfan:

So nowadays I don't ever think risk, only probability. If I'm speculating, I try and make sure emotions and pulse rate never come into it.

 

I'd buy a house for my family, plus the furniture and decoration. With the rest I'd probably spoil my loved ones a bit with gifts and travels, but with the remaining money (if any) I'm not sure about what I'd do next.

 

Give it to my enemy then sit on a rock in the woods off the highway with a stinky wool blanket and a can of soup.

Just kidding. I'd hire Merry Maids and a personal assistant with office prowess.

 

No.... No I didn't.

 

I would buy a house and some property then quit my job and travel. A million dollars isn't enough to justify never working again so after my travels were done I would invest in some kind of business plan, perhaps flipping houses. It would also be cool to open up a music venue/bar.

 

LOL! yeah, I would buy my brother a house so he can take half of the stuff out of my house here.......

and
whatever he leaves...i am finally free to do with what I want......
get rid of, for instance.....

 

and then

I would aad onto this house....a huge room with a real fireplace on the main floor here....which is what I have wanted to do for awhile....but then the taxes will go way up here, and they are high enough...so that is why I have not done anything like this yet...Still may some day...Love this property...but house needs adding on to make me feel happier.....

 

That's precisely it.
He likes the idea of it.
However the reality of it leaves something to be desired.

 

That's easy.....

Which reality are you thinking of when you say that? The general idea of a female companion/other people's reality who have a SO? Or his own reality? Doesn't it differ per companion and relationship how much there is lacking...? Just wondering if reality is the right word I guess

 

In my vision I won a million dollars. I really think I got a good chance at this. I will let you know if it happens. If I was going to predict when it will happen. I would say between one and a half-2 years from now. Should be interesting.

 

i would buy hipforums and turn it pink.

 

Wouldn't that make it Un-HipForums

 

do you mean turning it pink, or having me as the owner?

 

Precisely. In my mind there is an ideal date, but in reality it does not exist (or hasn't as of yet for me). Dates seem too forced and rigid for my liking, especially in the context of what everyone thinks modern-day dating is or should be. I just don't enjoy it. Then again, I haven't really met anyone I can truly connect with on an intellectual level.

I much prefer the company of women over men, but not in the context of a date.

 

Same here, but that doesn't mean if I were dating I would exclude the possbility of a relationship as a whole (not sure you do ). Or claim that dating is only good for flings, superficial relationships or one night stands. Well I suppose you were primarily talking about yourself there. Fair enough of course! (except maybe if the women you date would be in it for something more significant I guess, but on the other hand they should not go on a one night stand then )
