No. The first thing I'd do is to claim financial independence and leave the country on this basis. Move somewhere the heck out of here, the farther the better.

As long as money is not a concern, sure!! This means I'll have more cash than I'll know what to do with, right?;)

I'd prefer to have a vineyard and make wine as a hobby, if I was going to be a farmer.

Most likely I'd buy myself a real nice Penthouse Apt/Condo in Vancouver and spend all day with my high speed internet connection while looking out at the mountains and ocean.

Naw... sounds boring.

Now throw in a few hot New Zelander girls to work the farm and broadband Internet and you got a deal.

If that was the case, heck no. Didn't you people ever watch the Taz cartoons in the early 90's? The Kiwi bird always caused trouble.:p

No,
I'd live on a farm in New Zealand and start my own website.

unless that one is already taken.

Actually, I think I'd rather live on a nice steelhead river in the Northwest and spend my time in my driftboat.

No, it's too warm there. I won't live anywhere generally considered 'warm', 'sunny', 'popular', 'touristy', 'hot', 'tropical', 'dry'....or anything even remotely similar. However, if you change the location to someplace that stays around 50-70degrees and rains a lot, then hell yes I'd love it.

No, I really dislike stoop labor.
