It You Had All The Money You Could Ever Need
would you still continue to work and build your company? If yes, what would you do to your company to grow it, if money were not an issue?
If No, what would you be doing instead, since money is no object, have fun with it. For me, I would like to build a company until I'm 50, then go on the road and see all of America.

Re: It You Had All The Money You Could Ever Need
If I didn't work, I'd go nuts.
It's stay at it, but I'd hire someone else to do the grunt work.

Re: It You Had All The Money You Could Ever Need
I'd build a profitable business that could operate without me.
Then I would do it again and again and again and.... If I already had all the money I ever needed, then all of the profit from the businesses I created would be used for charity work.

Re: It You Had All The Money You Could Ever Need
I'd give all my equipment to a homeless dude o get back on his feet.
I'd set my family up. I'd party like a rock star for six months. And if I was still alive after that, I'd go on a world strip club tour. (**** ownership-let someone else have the headaches) |

Re: It You Had All The Money You Could Ever Need
I'd spend half on beer and strippers....then just waste the rest....
Honestly I'd still work, I love keeping busy and working; but at the same time I'd drink more (if thats possible) and buy a few full-time sex slaves, and nude women to work around me at all times, you know typical rich-guy stuff. |

Re: It You Had All The Money You Could Ever Need
my strip club would be the best, we would get shut down atleast once a week for lewd acts, but since you said I have all the money, I would just pay someone off. Maybe I should open 2 clubs so I have a place to go while one is shut down.

Re: It You Had All The Money You Could Ever Need
I would retire to a small cabin in the middle of the woods in mid Michigan and build my self a kick ass wood shop. I would buy myself a "70 GTO Judge and spend my summers traveling Cananda and Alaska.

Re: It You Had All The Money You Could Ever Need
I'd have a huge yacht. Like a 700 footer. Giga yacht territory. It would be staffed with a crew of 300 of the hottest chicks you've ever seen, and they'd all put out on demand.
