    I like to  think I  am doing with my life what I  want to do and what fulfills me. I think if I  had all the money in the world I would do what I am doing but maybe I would be traveling more.  Because of this I have decided to travel and step up my game.

    If  you were a mulitimillionaire would you be working or  going to  school still?  What would you  be doing if you were very, very wealthy?

    Yes, and I would not be a multimillionaire either (for long).  I could not hold on to money like that. It would cause a person like me too many problems.

    A very  good  point, Elsa, with the money comes all sorts of issues.

    I may go to school for something I enjoy, I would leave my current job. and after my family was taken care of I would see if I could help people less fortunate than myself.

    I would try to live a nice modest life, not really into opulence.  I would get out of debt, maybee the one luxury I might get would be a swimming pool.

    Just a pool, Bruce?  Very conservative! So  many people  would spend and spend and spend!

    I would definitely still be going to school, I love learning. 

    I wouldn't work, but would have to contribute in some other way, Pisces needs to be of service, perhaps funding a program or institution to help the poor.

    I would study! Wait, I am studying and I'm poor too! Looks like I'm doing what I'm meant to do. But I would work too, just not the point of breaking even.

    Long live Sag and Virgo Mars in the 9th house!

    Oh no not me.

    I know what it is like to have less than nothing.  Like in Gone with the Wind, "With God as my witness, I will never go hungry again."  Besifdes just getting the regular necessities will increase my living standards.  Currently I live a very Spartan lifestyle. No TV, no Internet {well I'm not paying for it}, etc...

    Vacations have been for catching up on housework and stuff, I have yet to go on a real vacation since I went with my whole family on my parents dime in high school.

    I have it figured out in a spiral bound notebook just how much I would allow myself to go wild.  about 6 thousand a year for mad money. 

    The biggest problem might be if I got all that money and I still haven't found my soulmate, how wouold I feel about anyone I met, would they only be with me for my money.

    Bruce, it can be hard to find love when you have money. You  almost have to  really look deeply into everyone to see who they are inside.

    Annalisa, I know I will be studying for the rest of my life. I will work and work hard I will. I just can't stop reading books and having new ideas. |After business I'm planning to study Art History.

    @Bruce Swimming pool would be great. Love and Money is a  crazy mix. Also very hard.

    I know what you mean, sunny. I studied dance for years and years after I went pro and took classes in different kinds of dance as well as vocals. I love learning and would not want to be around if I couldn't!  I have a ton of Sag too!

    If I were a multimillionaire, no, I would not work in the industry I am currently in.  I enjoy my job for its challenging aspects but I am not changing the world here and I'd rather be doing something to help people.  I'd do a lot of traveling, too.  As for school, definitely, my entire life I've enjoyed learning and being a student.  I miss it a lot, actually (the school part.)

    Ad Astra, I agree with helping people, that would be high on my list.  I think what I didn't need I would give away to those less fortunate.

    I probably would have to..... because I'd be broke faster than speed of light (I seem to attract "Identity Thieves" faster than anyone I know).

    But putting the "I.T." issue asside.... I would have to have an expensive hobby to keep me sane. And by expensive I mean..... a fully equipped carpentry-welding-mechanic shop. PLAY TOYS for MEN!!!  BWAHAHAHAHA.

    I'd be in school forever, but then I would still want to take that knowledge and apply it to my work eventually. What good is education if you don't use it in the real world, right?

    The world would become my "school" I believe. And, I would be working at what I wanted to instead of what I "had" to.

    (can you tell I have a lot of pr. planets in sag? LOL)

    I would educate myself and work.I'm not into luxurious stuff.I'd give a big chunk of my money to charity...a couple of millions are a couple of millions more than what I need.

    I would also travel and take up some hobbies.

    I wouldn't advertise it, that's for sure. I would put the money to work for me so that it would generate income. I would like to keep working but focus more on things I actually enjoy doing. I'd build that big shop in the back yard that every guy dreams of, spending my days making antique reproduction furniture and restoring old cars.

    I would have a bunch of kids and stay home with them and be family/friend/home centric. I always wanted a big family, although I doubt it would be wise for me to have one at our income level.

    ETA: I actually feel like I was born for my job, so who knows what I'd do if this actually happened.

    There's no doubt, I would be traveling...  Not just a week here or a week there either.  The way I would love to be able to travel would be to spend at least a few months at each location, maybe longer if I was enjoying it enough.

    If that was actually a reality, I would probably find a way to work it into a different career.  Maybe write about relocating to faraway places, different countries, etc... Use the experience somehow.

    If I were a multimillionare I would do what I am doing except do it faster and better.  I would continue my education - which would be so much easier with the extra cash.  I would invest money into my creative projects - which desperately need funding. 

    And I would probably become a venture capitalist/angel investor investing in others' creative projects or those who wish to start businesses.

    @ Annalisa and Sunnysadge

    Oh I know, and I'm sure I could see the real from the fake people, but I was thinking about the fact no one has wanted to be with me so far and I'm 42.  Then after money women all of a sudden interested, even though it is probably going to be more attributed to my being able to do more and feeling and looking less stressed.  But you know what I mean.  It's hard to find a real meaningful relationship.  But I still have hope.  =)

    I'd never be lost for things to do if I had that kind of money. I'd set up a publishing company to produce the books I've wanted to create for some years, and I'd have a few horses in training, pref in a yard at my own beautiful home so I could follow their progress closely. I know just the guy to train them too!

    I'd also fund some charities, esp for racehorse rehab, dog rescue and for abused children.

    No, I would not keep my job, but I would volunteer for the organization I currently work at. Just not full time.

    I might go to school - but for something I like, not to get some type of degree, and NOTHING related to my current career.

    I'd still work, but for myself! Not for anyone else, ever, unless it was something I loved.

    Multimillionaire, eh?

     

    I would continue learning, but not by way of school.  i would travel, experience, read, change ,surrender, grow, absorb, adopt and compare other cultures.

     

    I would probably volunteer on a manual level.  I always wanted to go to Third World countries and personally pitch in.

    I would buy a little bungalow in Hollywood or near where I am, with a little yard.  Alternately, a condo with a big balcony.  And I would plant a garden of things I love to eat.

    I would volunteer a lot.  I've mentioned this before; I would love to volunteer more.

    Maybe teach some folks who use wheelchairs to dance.  That would rock my socks off my million dollar legs.

    I might indulge in a car, too.  That would be the ultimate luxury for me - a car.
