Peter Gibbons: Our high school guidance counselor used to ask us what you'd do if you had a million dollars and you didn't have to work. And invariably what you'd say was supposed to be your career. So, if you wanted to fix old cars then you're supposed to be an auto mechanic.



Don't ask me how I got to thinking about this today, but I did.

So same question, if you had $1,000,000 and didn't have to work, what would you be doing?!?

Start coaching youth football.. at a level where the game is pure.

zero, you're not allowed to work...the $1,000,000 really implies an unlimited pot of gold...so child support is taken care of and you can just enjoy your truck and website

Is this $1 million/year, or $1 million total?

If the latter, and you can find a way to get 5% return year in and year out, that's just $50K/year.

That wouldn't be enough for me to quit work. (Well, it might, but that's because I have serious *issues* with the day job right now.)

And if you want to get more than 5% return, you're going to have to become a professional investor. So you're going to have to work at that. That's sort of attractive -- but teaching economists tend to make lousy investment experts.

So, assuming you mean something more than a lump sum of a million, my answer would be...

1. Write.
2. Read.
3. Have a real hobby like figuring out how computers actually work.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

The intent of the question (based off of my interpretation from the movie) is that the amt. of $ is arbitrary, the point is that money is no longer a concern....so if you want to beat your meat a lot, complain about redistribution of wealth from the damn lefties, or build a monster truck...well then that's what you answer.
