(assuming you weren’t “born rich”)

What do you define as being “rich”?

Or how would your life change if you won the lottery?

Without such wealth, can you still do something like what you would desire with such wealth? (Like if a person wants an expensive car, they might be able to read and discuss about what they like about such cars, etc.)

    Last year I saved up enough of a safety net that when my work went bankrupt last december, I haven’t had to work to survive for a short period.

    So, basically exactly what I’ve been doing. Find 40 acres of woods somewhere in the US with river access. get power and water on it, build a metal roof and a concrete floor. Put in RV hookups while I build my house myself. Go into town twice a week to play DnD and twice a month for groceries. Mostly swim in the river, play with my dogs, drink wine smoke weed shoot guns etc. Have a treehouse and a tiki bar on the list but not in the budget.

    I have about a month before I need to find a job and two months before I start getting nervous, so being rich would just buy peace of mind really. I’d still want a part time job to meet people but I’d have more resources to complete my own projects on my time.

    Oh also I probably wouldn’t be eating chicken and rice for every meal
