If money was no object, what ONE THING would you buy YOURSELF

[cookiei]

I too can't think of anything for myself. The house was built a few yrs ago and I plan to stay here until retirement. My car is old but I'm not interested in replacing it when it still runs fine. I don't want additional stress from purchasing a car/house when not needed or worry about scratches/dings on a new car or maintaining another house. At this point in my life I want less stress and fewer stuff.

A new house and a new car.

Convert your fireplace to gas, then with a flick of a switch, fire.

I got tired of managing firewood and the mess, so I got an electric fireplace and put it on the hearth of the real one.

A new house and a new car.

I would love a new house, socially distanced from everyone, with huge gardens, and an indoor pool ... with a mile long drive.. but we can't move because we have to stay within commuting distance of hubs work

We've got the nice rural setting...quiet, no crime, etc. Instead of a fireplace....which we had in our last house....I went for an outdoor wood furnace, so all the Mess stays outside. With acres of dense forest, I have an endless supply of firewood.

If we had ton's of money, about the only thing we'd change is buy a couple of new cars, and do more traveling.

A house boat and a BIG pickup truck.

I'm in a wheel chair. I can walk for short periods. But I can't walk into a store, and mosey around. I'd get an electric wheelchair This may sound like I could do this now, but if you have an electric wheel chair how do you get to the place where you can use it? Well, you need a van. Then the van has to be rigged with a lift, and motors, all kinds pf expense gadgets.. By the time you get all the auxiliary equipment, the van , the chair, etc., you are talking about a sizable hunk of change that I don't have.

Do you have an endless supply of mice? Course you do, you are in the country

I would buy a small, year round, cabin on a lake near where I live

I would buy the lake and the acreage around it too. I would also get a maid and a cook.

Just re-read the note. I think I'd buy a custom luxury RV with electric drive wheels, lots of EV batteries and a hybrid engine.

 

[Irwin]

I might buy a condo in Paris or maybe Manhattan. Or maybe a house on a few acres here in Denver.

 

[Pink Biz]

A small home.

 

[Sassycakes]

There is only one thing I would want and sadly all the money in the world couldn't buy it.

 

[Kathleen’s Place]

A new house and a new car.

Drats....you can oly have one! Sorry. Better go with the house

Great idea! We have an electric one as well. That thing can really kick out some heat if we want it to!

Buy your husband’s business and move it where you want to live !

Not really. I keep a half dozen baited traps in the basement and garage. So far, this Fall/Winter, I've had one "guest".

Oh howI miss Denver!! We lived there for 8 years and I adored it. That was back in the90’s and I haven’t been back since

Now THERE’S a fun idea!!!!!

 

[Macfan]

I would buy the house up on the hill from us I have admired for a number of years now. Alas, it is not to be but if money wasn't an issue, the possibility would be real. Don...

 

[Marie5656]

Cannot think of much, but does a whole new wardrobe count as ONE thing?

I lived at ENT Air Force base in 1969 when I was in the Army

 

[gennie]

I bunch of expensive orchids. They love the climate on my screen porch.

 

[Ruth n Jersey]

@Aunt Marg, if I had that greenhouse I would live in it. Notice those cold frames in front with the raised glass, perfect for hardening off plants for the garden. My head is swimming with ideas but I guess in reality I have to be happy with my snake plant .

A good personality.
