quit job along with the wife , go to Disney World for 2 weeks after the 2 week vacation purchase a nice 3000-4000 square foot home in a nice area , make some donations to my sons school , church -- help out some family members ( notice i said some ) ,set aside a small portion for comic related stuff like opening a top of the line comics store and traveling to conventions- hire my best friend as my store manager/convention roadie - pay the tab for a couple of CGC dinners ( with open bar - of course ) but would mostly put it all in safe investments and live very very well off the interest and income from them ...

 

Gotta ask...why are you still married then? Because of the kid(s)? Curious as my brother says the same thing frequently...

:gossip: I think Mike meant that both he and his wife would quit their respective jobs, not that he would quit the wife. But i've been wrong before.

This thread reminds me of why I never play the lottery. I'm fairly certain that winning a massive jackpot would shorten my life expectancy by about 40 years.

 

I have issues.

He better hurry up and spend it before it gets taken away and redistributed to people that have no desire to do anything besides eat, sleep, mess, and reproduce.

For comics I'd need 2 million, the one million to buy all the books/art from my list and the other million to buy the world's best Tec '27 or Action #1... just to *spoon* everybody off and have my sig line say that I own the best book in the world

 

 

 

So two million for comics and CCE's..

Another three million play money

50 million for my family

50 million in a bank account

the remaining 115 million goes to charity

 

 

Never having to work again sounds more like punishment than reward to me..

I enjoy a great number of things and working is one of them. I couldn't imagine a life where I would just hang around all day..Leisure time is golden, but it loses a lot of its luster when every day becomes leisure day...

 

I'd do all the things I spoke off if I won the lottery, improve my material things, but I wouldn't quit my job.

 

Your going to need way more than $1M to get either of the book's.!!!! WAY MORE!!!!!!

Guess I'm a little too literal. From the first sentence, it sounded like he was saying he would quit his job and quit his wife... (shrug)

To be fair, I don't think anyone really wants to reproduce; it's just a side effect of spooning, much like an STD.

 

:fear:

That's how I read it too, as it's congruent with my paradigm of married life.

To each his own and probably just jest, but some of us pray every day that we can "reproduce".
