If money were no object...

Id like a nice little cabin in the hills, far away from those asshole humans.
Would probably keep dogs and cats and pigs.
Pigs are much better than humans.
 
If money were no object, I'd get a nice big plot of land in the country. That way I could get up every morning and do whatever I god damned pleased. Probably take up RC flying again as I'd have my own private field. I hate any activity that requires you to belong to a club because there's always some miserable asshat there to ruin it for everyone else. They're usually in some position of power too.
 
I'd build an ISP. A full blown fibre optic network spanning all of Canada and the US and possibly even beyond, with nodes at every town, providing low cost gigabit 100% neutral internet access to everyone. No cap, logging or any of that stuff, and servers would be allowed. Each backhaul link would be encrypted over redundant 500gig+ links. It would basically be a huge mesh. Heck there could even be some meshing going on locally within the city, with encrypted backhaul links too. Customers could become nodes too with special equipment that they choose to install and manage. Net neutrality, security and availability would be the goal behind this network.

As a side thing I'd probably build a self sustaining city. You know, just a little side project.
 
A personal workshop with every tool imaginable, including things like high end CNC machines. Ideally, I'd be able to work my way up to something like Tony Stark's garage with magic machines that build stuff.
 
I'd buy a long lines bunker I have my eye on out in the middle of the desert, buy the Presidency, nuke Russia and watch the world go to hell. LOL!

Naa, I would buy that bunker though and a Bombardier Global 8000 and a paraglider. I would have a nice house designed by me with a bell tower and antennas galore for all my scanners and receivers including sat dishes. (I'm into radio communications). I would have a place somewhere in Europe along the coast.

Finally I would buy the USC cheerleaders for a day and get busy. 😀

Oh! Did I mention I would fly them all in that Global 8000 to my private island? 😀

The Bombardier Global 8000 is a hell of a lot better and has more range the a Citation X. 😛

The X leaves it in the weeds, more than 40 MPH faster. Shorter runway, and besides it is for me to fly.
I'm not a sim pilot 😛
 
I have few illusions about unlimited money NOT being the death of me. So I don't often go there. If I somehow get access to large sums of money, my plan is to give copious amounts of it away, retaining enough for the modest lifestyle to which I am accustomed. Anything else would be folly, unless I was able to radically change my mindset to accommodate a perilous new reality.
 
lots of travel and my own personal race track with more cars than leno.

I would also buy one of those ex missle launch sites in the midwest and have the sweetest underground lair ever complete with theme rooms and secret passages and crazy shit like a underground grotto with a submarine and a glass helicoptor where I fly around naked and people look up at my nuts...

would owning a island and making arule where there is only one man and all wemon on this island are neeked piss my wife off?
