Question

Maybe I'd still work if I can have some freedom in how much I work and if it's something I like doing or have good coworkers or something else that motivates me.

Being involved in charity projects could also be an option.
Then maybe do it more in periods.
Like going away somewhere and maybe do full time or even more then full time when being there for a period.
But then when you go home (or travel somewhere else) you can take as much time of as you'd like before getting involved in another project.

It can be good to have something meaningful to do.
But if I don't do it for the money, then I wouldn't want to work 40 hours a week.
Or maybe work more intensively for a period but not work every month.

I like (d) my job, which is why I'm applying to do the same thing. I wouldn't mind doing it without getting paid, unfortunately medical coding cannot be done as a volunteer, and intern jobs don't last indefinitely. I only want to get paid because I need money, but I won't if I have enough available. I'd prefer the jackpot paid off in installments, rather than the lump sum. $1 million a month should be good, with the ability for it to transfer to someone if I die before it's all paid off. I still probably wouldn't get a house, just a long-term rental on a townhouse I really liked but is at the upper edge of my price range.

The average person only spends $20 million in their lifetime. $15 billion is an insane amount and one I could never dream of spending all on my own. I’d just take a billion for myself and me and my family and friends are all set for life. The rest can be used for colleges, like that one lady who donated a billion dollars to a medical school so all students had free tuition forever.

That's far too much. But yeah I'd help a lot of people but my daily life wouldn't change too much. Maybe a few cars my husband wants. A few holiday homes.

msc545 · Answer

I would think I would take a little bit of time off if I was able to but I have patients to care for and that isn't going to change just because I have some money.

Surely · Answer

Since I am retired. Why would I want to go back to work. It would be enough trouble trying to do something fun and good with it.

I would start multiple businesses and manage them, which is also stressful work. being billionaire doesn't mean living as vacation
