Not at all. I would do it if I could pursue interests that are not guaranteed to make money, but to force someone to sit on their ass for money is almost torture.

I would rather work in a monotonous factory that do literally nothing all day.

For the rest of your career? No. Because when it ends you have nothing.

Rest of my life. Shit yes!

what a nightmare

I want to say no, but I couldn’t pass that up. I would find other stuff to do, like sleep with multiple women or play an MMORPG lol.

If I had the right suit.

I couldn’t. I can barely get through 2 vacation days without doing something productive!

Not with those stipulations attached, especially the part about not being the caretaker of your own children.

Well, I kind of have that now LOL.

I agree with @gradyjones the stipulation about children is a deal breaker. Thing is I don’t have children. Also, you said you cannot invest. I would have to be able to save at minimum for me to take this deal. I would not be comfortable with a use or lose set-up. Lastly, I would need to know where the money is coming from. If it seemed to lack integrity I could not do it.

Once you put all those contrainsts on it – hell no!

Exactly what @jackm said.

What if I asked it this way:

Would you commit to a life long job where you traveled the world with the intent of making friends, learning about new cultures, attending performances and cultural events on a budget of $80,000 a year?

I think that amounts to the same thing.

@6rant6 Uh, hell yes! That would be the bomb.

Half of those things you mentioned (writing, research, art, etc.) is what I do when I chill! So, no thanks. :-)

It would be very appealing for a short while! I would have to say no!

No, never. I enjoy writing and creating art far too much to take a deal like that. And while I don’t have children, if I did, I would never let someone other than myself and the father raise them.

yes i would, as active as possible, lots of exercise

Boring! I am retirement age now but have no plans to do so. I have plenty of hobbies and outside interests but I think the discipline of body and mind that is required by regular employment is very good for me, plus I like it.

That sounds somewhat restrictive, with no creating allowed, since I am an artist. However, if you mean someone will do the caretaking of the children, and I can still play with them without having to worry about will they get dirty or wet, I could live with that. If you are saying I can’t go on the internet and answer questions, then I’d have to say probably not, although I can think of some things I could replace it with.

It would have to include healthy exercise and eating a properly balanced diet (prepared by someone else, of course), and continue for the rest of my life – which is how long my ‘career’ will be. I could easily travel about the world, looking at all the sights.

@YARNLADY good answer!
