Since I want to basically sit at home and write novels for a living, I'd be pretty happy at being about to relax and do so without any worrying about money

Haha, whoops, I never posted myself.

I'd probably end up quitting my current job; this one-hour-one-way commute stuff sucks. I wouldn't lounge around, though. I would either end up getting a much closer job with something I still enjoy, or better yet, I'd pursue all my side projects with the time that I'd otherwise have spent working. I'd work on Prism undisturbed for at least 2+ hours a day, and probably make my webcomic a bi-weekly thing instead of a weekly one. It would be awesome.

I'd buy myself a nice house with a nice studio. I'd compose and record to my heart's content.

I wouldn't work, but I'd finish out college and get my BS. Hell, if I've got the money, I might as well get a Ph.D in Computer Engineering.

You know, come to think of it, I'd probably get another degree in Physics also, then I'd get a job where I could play with lasers all day. OR I'd go work for ITER. That'd be pretty awesome.

I would stay in college forever. I would major in everything I could muster! From media to theology to science!
That is my idea of heaven ;D

I'd probably keep studying engineering, get a PhD, and become a professor. Enough work to keep me busy, and the additional income could go into traveling with the time I'd have off during breaks.

Finish my degree, maybe get a master's or phd. Do or become active in the performing arts, for sure.

Why not work? Sure, it depends on the type of job, but if you have a nice, fixed, constant amount of cash that you can live off of for a lifetime, or multiple lifetimes.....a family, why choose something that you HAVE to work for that's dull and tedious, when you can do work for fun?
Plus, work teaches responsibility, leadership, patience, and a good bunch of other virtues you can't learn from from playing Minecraft all day. And, yeah, you would feel guilty when you're lying on your deathbed thinking: "Gosh, when I was young and not dying, I should've done *xyz*".
Plus, it gives you something to do. I hate being stressed out when I'm totally busy, but sometimes, I think it would be better to be stressed out than to not be at all. Because you learn from *xyz*. And that goes into the virtues and stuff from earlier.

Yeah, I'd work. Probably something simple with added benefits, like working at a movie theater or something where you know friends and regulars. I'm just that kind of guy.

I haven't yet found something I enjoy that qualifies as work, so currently my answer would be 'no, I would not.'

I'd use it to go to the art college I want. After that, I do the thing I like for a living and enjoy myself however I see fit. I wouldn't see it as work, but rather sort've like play. I don't need to spend a lot to keep myself happy.

Ah, money. I myself would start a business with my friend, which we are planning on. RNG LLC. Start as a hobby shop. Start developing video games that we have ideas for. Slowly expand, till we own most of the businesses in our town. Slowly expand, until we have COMPLETE CONTROL OF THE WORLD! Mwahahahaha!

Re: If you didn't have to work, would you?

2011-03-27T20:27:19-06:00

I would work.

First I would finish up my nursing degree (8 weeks left, w00t) and then go back to school to get my teacher degree and specialize in health science.

Why teach? Because it allows me to do my true passion.......coach. I would take over as head football coach and probably do assistant track and field. Unless you're a teacher, you aren't getting a head coaching position in football here (pays an extra $5.8k per year, almost 20% of their normal salary). Then I'd donate all the money back to the football/track programs.

Probably also try to become a famous shrimp breeder. I'd love to buy this 20,000 sq ft pole barn near me. 5k sq ft of shrimp breeding, 15k for my cars and custom work shop. Also would put a paint booth in and have my buddy run a business out of there, he just has to give me free paint jobs for all my cars.

Of course I'd want to keep myself active. I'd go crazy otherwise.

That being said, I probably wouldn't pick a very demanding job, unless it's something I really enjoy.
