Tell my wife I now have “fuck you money”, and then fuck her lots because she could quit her shitty stressful job and have energy again.
D’aw, I wasn’t expecting something wholesome to be the first thing. Good job Lemmy
I would buy as much land as I could. Build myself a reasonable house and a load of barns. I have always wanted to run a farm animal sanctuary that takes in abused and unwanted farm friends. Then I would spend the rest of my days laughing at goats and cows and chickens being derpy. That and maybe take a nice vacation to the beach once in a while.
Why not just build your animal sanctuary next to a beach and laugh at derpy land and sea animals? :-)
Holy cow we have the same childhood dream!
2 chicks at the same time
That’s it? If you had fuck you money you’d do two chicks at the same time?
I really hope I’m not the only one who read that in Lawrence’s voice.
Why stop at 2?
I only have 2 dicks :(
Understandable, have a nice day.
With “fuck you” money, you could purchase more dicks.
How much does that cost? I already have one, but I have been thinking of getting a newer, bigger one.
Dude you can do that if you’re broke af just be hot and charming.
Buy a nice home, upgrade it to my liking (CAT6 to all parts of it, solar panels/energy storage/network cabinet/make it watertight and safe for the next 50 years), buy a shitty looking van with a petrol powered pressure washer and indemnity insurance and spend my spare time going around cleaning paths and monuments etc. in my local area.
I ran cat 6 through the house we moved into over winter. The box, the guys running the cable and patching the walls after was like $1,200…not exactly fuck you money and absolutely worth it.
Ran it to the office, basement TV and office, family room, kids rooms and wife office.
If you want to do it, it might be worth exploring rather than waiting to hit the lottery.
A 1000’ box of cat6 was is I think $150 or so. A couple of those and a couple weekends of your time = profit. Plus it frees up your wifi for phones/tablets/laptops/etc.
This post just makes me want to be friends with you lol
I want him to adopt me. Dad?
This is the best plan I’ve seen yet.
I probably wouldn’t quit my job because I like it. I probably wouldn’t even tell many people I had that much money. My only debt is my mortgage so that would be gone. I’d probably buy a better house with an actual yard. Sell this house to my roommate for dirt cheap. (There’s no way he’d just take it)
Probably do some lying that my brother won some kind of raffle and give him a bunch of racecar parts. Shit maybe even sponsor a race team or two, gotta get the young kids back in the sport as all the old guys retire.
I’d probably buy some land in another area, give myself a vacation house. But this wouldn’t be immediate. Probably get a new car, mines pretty old. Build a greenhouse on my new property, have way too many rescue animals. Maybe even run a small rescue.
All this is assuming I’ve already set myself up for retirement and I’m good to go with everything else.
I probably would do the same as I love what the job entails.
I’m pushing 40 and basically have everything settled and really don’t need a lot. Have my house, garden, friends, ect. Money would just be a nice stress relief at this point.
Only problem I could see is that at the place I work is a 503©. So when/if the higher ups learn of my winnings, they’d either beg for donations or fire me.
Probably the former as the department is already short staffed and you need a license to do this job.
What job do you have?
Order a pizza, don’t want to make big decisions on an empty stomach
Love it!
Not sure how much money that is, but I would start a “quiet landscaping” company that used reel mowers instead of gas mowers, rakes instead of leaf blowers, and I would undercut every landscaping company in my town just to promote the idea of a quiet neighborhood.
We signed up for a service last year that uses only electrified/battery powered devices (as opposed to IC engines), mainly just for the green aspect of it. But I’ll be danged if they’re not also like a third the volume of the gas ones! The first time they showed up, my wife saw a dude walking back and forth behind a push mower (looking out through the closed window of her office), and she thought he literally didn’t even have it on yet. That’s how much quieter they are. I think that’s a damn good balance. Dudes with reel mowers and rakes are gonna be out there for like two hours every time they come; very not interested.
My idea was intentionally unrealistic and meant to represent an extreme. Your suggestion isn’t just realistic, it already exists. Admittedly, I’m not really that interested in operating a landscaping company, I just want eliminate some of the unnecessary noise noise.
I could get behind this!
How specific, but also I love it
Massive underground dwelling. Not sure why, but that was my first thought.
Like hobbit house or prepper bunker?
I would try to ease the life of everyone around me.
That’s a nice answer
Not tell anyone and see how little work I can do at work before they fire me. I bet I could even get promoted.
You sound like a straight shooter with upper management written all over ya.
Haha that’s basically what I’m doing now
Buy off all the politicians and have them implement policies that will benefit the working class. Invest heavily in renewable energy sources and public transportation. Buy all the comic books.
Hire someone to manage my money.
Pretty sure quitting your job would be the first thing most people would do.
But next up? Booking tickets to Japan to eat and drink my way through the country for a few months.
Pretty sure quitting your job would be the first thing most people would do.
I quite like my job, so I’d just reduce the amount of time I spend there to approx. 10 hours a week.
I would go for a eat and drink world tour. Every countries best dishes and drinks.
