Things I will have:
-A house that's at least 5000 sq. feet on at least two acres, with a pool, huge kitchen for my wife (our 8x10 kitchen just isn't cutting it for her anymore, especially for the huge Christmas Cookie baking party she has every year), home theater, home gym, game room, bar, wine cellar (another wife request), cigar humidor, and a really big master bedroom with a balcony. The house also must have one of those circular driveways with the fountain in the middle so I never have to back out of the driveway again!
-Black Ferrari 458 Italia. I'm a Batman nut and this seems like the closest I can get to my own Batmobile!
-A condo in Key West. We visited once on a cruise for a few hours and fell in love with the atmosphere there. Plus we both hate Colorado winters once Christmastime has passed, so it'd be a nice place to stay until spring.
-A housekeeper and groundskeeper. Next to my job, keeping up with things around the house is currently my biggest time drain. I'd still do the stuff I enjoy like little remodeling and landscaping projects, but I can live without ever vacuuming, dusting, mowing, or shoveling snow ever again.
Things I will do:
-Pay off my parents' mortgage, car loans, etc.
-Pay off my sister's student loans
-Buy my mom a new car, buy my dad a 1963 Corvette Sting Ray (his favorite)
-Fly first class everywhere (no private planes, thanks. Those little planes are scary! Maybe if I can get my own 747...)
-Take a road trip to Las Vegas in my Ferrari, stay in a suite with a butler.
-Wear jeans/shorts and a t-shirt everywhere I possibly can-no more business casual!
-Take the most extravagant Disney World vacation possible. This is where we honeymooned, but since we were still in college we had to go as no-frills as possible, and still had an amazing time. I'd love to see how much more fun we could have with access to a nicer hotel, all the behind-the-scenes tours, fun restaurants, and all the other premium experience stuff you can do there.
-Take a vacation at least four times a year. (I initially wanted more but then remembered how much work it is preparing for a vacation!)
-Help a lot of homeless animals. My wife is a vet nurse and so we're animal lovers by default, and we've been able to do quite a bit for this cause already, but I can only imagine the impact I could make with greater resources.
Great topic and a great exercise!
