Where would you go?

I'd keep life kind of simple and buy a 60 foot boat and enjoy all the beaches around the world. Do some deep sea fishing to keep plenty of freash seafood on board and just travel around with no particular place to be. Not sure what I'd do with the wife and the kid because when you fantasize about something like that it has 2 or 3 young ladies in small bikinies laying around the boat. Not a wife nagging you and a kid crying in the background.

I've never really been on vacation and the furthest south i've gone is North Carolina so i'm not really thinking anywhere tropical. I am pretty sure i would stay right in the area and not move more than 15 minutes from my house. I would get a much bigger house though. I would definitely buy a house in College Park because I have a lot of family that'll could be going there(7 younger cousins and syblings, two of which are probably are going to maryland in the next 2 years). THey could use a nice big house. I would 'pimp' the hell out of it too.

Even if I won like 10 million i don't think i would get a house in florida or anything. I might but if I won like 25 million I would definatley get something in florida to hang out at in the winter and the summer.

Lots of cars and fun stuff though. That is how i would like to spend my money.

I would buy a really nice home in an upscale community of San Diego ( Rancho Santa Fe or La Jolla).

Or I would live in a suite at Fedex Field.

This got me thinking (and I was going to respond in thread, but some people just can't play nice ;))...

I'm a beach bum, and as much as people say I would get bored, I want nothing more in life than to retire now, and live on a beach for the rest of my life. Florida, Caribbean, Australia, South Pacific...doesn't matter. As long as I've got a chair to sit in and a surf to look upon, I'm happy.

What about you guys? If you didn't have to work for any reason, where would you end up?

Honestly I am thinking about buying an island when I retire. They are relatively cheap(1-2mil) for a small decent sized on. Only thing I am seriously worried about is paying for a fresh water refining plant and piracy.

But I hope to get one.

I would keep my home base right here at home, but I'd do a ton of traveling.

Assuming money was no object, I'd probably own a beach house, a house on a golf course to which I belonged, a condo in Vegas, and a house in the mountains somewhere. I'd probably bounce around from house to house, but also spend lots of time in Europe and the Carribbean at resorts.

I lived in Hilton Head for a year like that, it did get boring. Sorry.

No worries. I'd figure to play golf, snorkel, sail, hold up the corner of a tiki bar, you know the basics. I'd probably get bored, but then remember what it was like before, and quickly go invade hoo's private island

Yo, Ho Ho...

I'll have me a BBQ/Crabshack on the Outerbanks in a few years. You watch.

Fish and play on the beach in the morning, sell BBQ all day and play guitar in the bars at night. Ahhhhh the Pirate's Life for me!

peace


Yo I am coming to Maryland/Virginia area next month. I need to stop at your place and have some of you r BBQ

First I would buy a House on 10th street which is my Favorite cove in Laguna Beach. Then I would buy a house on the coast in Big Sur. After that I would build a big house in Coffs Harbor Australia out towards the big Banana. I would also buy back my Grandparents house behind Mount Vernon next to the Potomac so that I could stay there when I fly back to Virginia for Redskins games and Christmas. I would have to get family to live in and take care of them because I would be out globe trotting with beautiful women like Dr.Buss does majority of the time. I think that would about do it.
That reminds me I need to go buy a lotto ticket.;)

Start your bidding now
