By most measures, my life has been pretty interesting.

I've lived out of the country for years at a time.

I've done every drug under the sun.

I've been with women from almost every country in western Europe, Australia, and Asia. Being a bartender/owner on the tourist trail gives you those opportunities.

I've owned companies and sold them.

I even ghostwrote two books.

I've lived the life.

But none of it seems that interesting. It's just life.

What defines a life well lived? What makes a life worth living?

Run drugs. Move to Central America. Make connections. Get out alive.

Make enough money to buy Miami and piss it away as fast.

I've thought about it, but at 36, I've probably missed my window. I'm pretty damaged goods at this point. I'm a damn good uncle though.

Bragging and basking in your own glory. (That's the OT answer)

If I understand the question, the answer is subjective. It depends on the person.

Live casting a category 4 hurricane from a car wash as the building collapses on you, all the while a little blue shed in the distance stands mightily, like a knight in the night. That makes for an interesting life.

The drug thing is boring and cliche, and actually leads to the opposite of an interesting life.

The women thing of course, is great-- but then again, if you bang too many of them, you could get herpes.. so like a lot of things, it's a double edged sword.

I'd say travel and/or living in different places is one of the top things that helps one to be interesting; I'm a firm believer that people should move away from wherever theyre originally from (esp the South) at least for a little while, or else you get trapped in that same world view and never see alternate viewpoints.
