I always wanted to. Besides, $384 M can go pretty fast without some income. There are plenty of rich people who went broke. And I would eventually get bored. I like to work. Gives me a purpose. So I would be my own boss and open a business.

Only if you do stupid stuff with your money.

You could invest some of it and live off the interest.

Because they do stupid stuff with it.

I only want a Cessna Corvalis, a turboprop and maybe an amphibious. TO OWN.

I wouldn't fly coach, but first class or Jet rental would be for trips.

The $2m I meant on flying toys for myself.

So you think business owners just sit back and enjoy free time???

There are some, but their employees rob them blind and they end up broke. A successful business owner/manager is NEVER off of work.

Personally, I would open a porn studio that specializes in incest plots. People love incest porn but there's not enough production to meet demand. It's a sure fire investment.

Often that stupid stuff was starting a business.

See then I would just get involved with some charity work. Get satisfaction/purpose out of helping others with my money.

Also...I would be using my money to pay for the best fertility doctors on the planet and the best fertility treatments. I wouldn't get bored raising a child. And could afford nannies to allow my husband and I to still be able to travel the world with a kid.
