Without work I would have no single focus.
Suffice to say that my previous experiences with how my psyche functions show that this would in turn lead to a rapid disintegration of my personality.

If I were rich... I would buy myself a new PC, Call of Duty 1 and 2, some presents for a colleague of mine, a plane ticket to travel to London, a big house, a bodyguard :max: and the whole X Files series to see on TV. (and don't forget about some adult movies, of course :D )

Must agree with you, Horseman...

Working: yes, always... but choosing "where" to work and "what" to do!
We all need something to grab on, our dreams can change the world, if we fight for them hard enough.

Not doing anything, just travelling and relaxing could be nice for awhile, but then it would become boring.

BTW, I'm not rich, but I have almost everything I want, and what I don't have, it's only because it's connected to other people's wishes, and I do not allow myself to go against them - as I wouldn't like them to go against mine either;

Having others respect worth's much more than any money in the world (ok, I'm going to shut up now, guys and girls... sorry for this "whining" :tomato: )

I'd buy a lot of apartments and rent them to people. Then I'd invest muuuuch money. That's how I would secure the future. Talking about future, I would put great sums of money on Swiss banks - just in case. Then I'd go and spend some money:
I'd buy some of the houses on our block so we'd have a huge garden, encircled with the inhabited houses. Then I'd refurbish and refurnish our entire house, revamp the garden, get a pool, and lots of technical stuff - you know, computers and so on. Actually, once I'm at it, I'd buy a whole lot of stuff. And two of the smaller houses I would give to my parents to use as offices - now that we're dirty rich, they could do whatever they wanted - and one of the big houses I'd give to my older sister. So she could live there, you know, have babies and stuff (Damn I wanna be an uncle by the time I'm 18!). The rest of the houses I would use as garages for all my cars, bikes, tanks and dozers (wooops, wrong dream), one I'd use for storage and one for parties.
That's pretty much the gist, I could go on for hours about it.

- Donate money to poor people, build them homes and that sort of stuff.
- Get nice stuff to me and my family (An own PC for everyone would be the first.)
- Hire myself a HUGE amount of scientist, and make them develop a cure for all diseases.
- Buy the copyrights to all old games and make them available for everyone to download (In Abandonia, of course)
- And all sorts of random mostly affecting me like making computer with 10Tb (10 Terabytes) of disk space.
- Make a Windows that doesn`t crash every day.

The last one would probably take the largest amount of money.

..I dont need more money.
Im perfectly happy.

If I were fabulously rich, I'd probably
A: Save up a few thousand pounds for a lifetime supply of mobile credit
B: Save up another few thousand for the internet
C: And some for games
D: Food and all. Blah. Life essentials
E: Give the remainder to the underprivaledged.

And F (should there be any spare): Build myself a supercomputer for playing games and other cool stuff.

Like an FTL drive.
