Money

If your life circumstances suddenly changed and money was no longer a concern, how would you spend your time? What new challenges and projects would you take on? Can any of these become part of your current life or future goals?



If money were no longer a concern, I would quit my job (with 30 days notice, of course!)  I would travel around the world, with no agenda and spend as long as I like in each place.  I would buy a hot air balloon and learn how to fly it.   I would hire a personal trainer and a personal shopper and get expensive haircuts. I would hire someone to pay the bills, fix the car and clean the house. I would take a painting class and a jewelry making class. I would volunteer to work for causes that I believe in, and give money when I can make a  difference. I would read incessantly.  Maybe I would get a  PhD for fun. I would surround myself with friends and family, and bring them along for the ride.

Can any of these be incorporated into my current life?  Maybe in small snippets, here and there.  A vacation. A class. A book.  A haircut.  My friends and family are welcome to join me.
