[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody WANTS to work.  It's just more socially acceptable for women to say this vs. men. [/quote]

I find it hysterical that people refuse to admit this on here whereas in the REAL WORLD people LOVE to bang on about what they'd do with their free time if they won the Mega Millions. Every time it gets up to over 100M, people have the same conversations about this.[/quote]

Because that kind of money is a game changer.  Having $10 million is NOT.

Having to travel in order to not be bored still requires spending time in gross airports and all sorts of other crap.  With $100 million this isn’t the case.

It’s why so many wealthy people still work.  The more leisure time you have, the less valuable and enjoyable it becomes.  Work serves a purpose for MANY people.

There are many women in DC who truly gain satisfaction from work.  Our husbands don’t make enough where we can travel around on private jet and entertain ourselves doing who knows what.  [/quote]

Oh please. MOST people's lives would be dramatically changed if they suddenly got 10 million deposited into their bank accounts.

100 million or more is the kind of money you could never spend in a lifetime. I mean, you could but you'd have to really try and it would be gross to do so imho.

We don't even have 5 million but we live pretty well on a base salary of 750k plus bonuses and we have a few million in the bank. We don't fly private but we take luxury vacations at high end resorts 6 times a year. Our kids go to private school and do whatever expensive activities and camps they want to do. We have a nice house in NW and a beach house on the MD shore where we spend most of the summer months.

DH works from home about 50 hours a week and I don't work at all. We're in our late 30s. I guess the next step for us would be flying private and taking private yacht vacations. Right now we're comfortable spending up to 20k for a week away.[/quote]
