    what would you do with the rest of your life if you had £22,000,000?

    as in what would you spend your days going if you never had to work again?

    I'd split it between writing, travel, and indulging in carnal knowledge of interesting and attractive members of the opposite sex.

    Better yet, with that kind of money I could probably find ONE interesting and attractive member of the opposite sex and make him a kept man. That's plenty.

    (Yes, I'm female. Okay?)

      With £22 million I'd get myself a decent house, an unbeatable internet connection and a large dog, then get the one family member I give even half a damn about plus my best friends sorted. After that it's basically writing, television, films, videogames and maybe the occasional sci-fi convention.
      And now it's time for one last bow, like all your other selves. Eleven's hour is over now... the clock is striking Twelve's.

        I'd share it out amongst my family and myself.
        Make sure some close RL mates are a bit sorted.
        After that I'd buy myself a nice house, sort out my finances (put most of the money in a good interest account) and put aside all the money I'll need for bills.
        Maybe get a newer car.

        Once all of that's sorted I'd probably get some further education, spend my time studying a variety of subjects, do some traveling, first throughout the UK, then maybe do a Man Vs Food style tour of the US and other countries.
        See those big sights of the world that people always say you should go and see.

        Generally just do what I fancy, widen my view of the world.

        What about you slimjim?

                While it may have that connotation, it can be used to describe a wealthy person financially aiding a poorer person, with no sexual connotation at all.

                Also, as an expression, the "man" is gender neutral, just as "him" or "ils" (in French) are both the masculine and gender-neutral pronoun in proper English.

                    I'm a woman, and I meant it in the literal sense... which I'd thought would've been obvious from the context.

                      I'd spend the rest of my life trying to see in I could get a PHDs in mathematics, various scientific fields, English literature and philosophy
                      I've got an IQ of about 130 something, I'm just really really really lazy and as such pretty ignorant. I reckon if I had lots and lots of money I'd be able to engineer a study environment where I can't get distracted or give up when I struggle at any thing

                          My posts should be a major clue otherwise, and my profile as well.

                            I've never looked at your profile and I haven't read all your posts ever

                              Yours makes me assume you don't exist.
