hell yes in a heart beat. i would like to think i would continue working there regardless, but my attitude toward the job would probably become so negative (it would be a total “fuck it” attitude) that i would get fired anyway. i live comfortably on what i make now, about 65K a year, but for me to live a little extra comfortably, like taking nice vacations every year, including lots of weekends away, fancy shopping sprees, etc., i’d say about 100K would do it. to live in the lap of luxury, like buying a summer house, winter house, etc., i’d need at least 250K a year. if i had money to spare it would be nice to take care of my parents (who are not poor by any means but i would throw them a vacation house or something special).
as for what i would do in spare time, i’d travel (british columbia, germany, england, greece, denmark to start), probably volunteer a few places, maybe take some courses at the local college for fun. i like the idea of tiny faery’s to have a cattery. i saw a place in florida (i think) where the guy had this big piece of property and he had all these cats living there, and it was just him in a little house taking care of the cats. i don’t know if i could live a solitary life like that with the cats but i would donate money to places like that.
