What would do if money was no object?

In terms of what the question actually means haha...

I'd move to Florence & spend the occasional weekend jetting out to Scotland for matches but only when we were good.

They'd give me a free season ticket cos that's what they do for rich people.

I'd have a house in Florence cos I'd be that loaded.

I'd fill it with antiques.

I'd have a somewhat perfect body & wear the suits I want to wear which are uncomfortable right now.

Been seeing a sign in stores for months now about the national coin shortage and inability of the cashiers to give change. Someone is working hard to make us a cashless society so money will be nothing more than digits on an electronic account. At that point money is literally no object.

To me money equals freedom and I have none of either in the grand scheme of things.

Money no object to me equals small house with triple garage and really, really big shed or barn!

I would be a student at UBC and live in a multi-Million dollar penthouse on campus and have a second home in Squamish as close to The Spit (kiteboarding beach) as possible. I'd still stay right here in the Vancover area, though.

I've been to Vancouver. It's a nice city, but in my mind it all mixed together with Seattle, I visited both on the same trip, driving to Vancouver from Seattle. They felt very alike.

I think Seattle is my favorite city in the states though... Vancouver could be my favorite in Canada. I like Ottawa and Montreal as well though... Been to the Canadian side of the 'Falls.

Whenever we return from American road trips, it's when we hit Seattle that it really starts to begin to really feel like home - same big green tree forest. So I can definitely understand blending memories of the two from a trip.

I've never been that far East in Canada or the USA - so have never been to Ottawa or Montreal or any of the Maritimes or the New England states. I've been as far East in Canada as Winnipeg when I was only a few years old, and would have to look at a map to see how far I've been in the USA - but basically whatever's South of Alberta, maybe a bit of Saskatchewan, and West to the Pacific & South to Mexico. (Walked across the border into Tijuana when we were on a Disneyland road trip in 1991.)

The other major reason to be at UBC is Wreck Beach - my happy place. The Spit for kiteboarding is the other one. The highway in between is for motorcycling.

My first thought was "help people" but after that...

I'd rebuild the funfair "Frontier Land" in Morecambe with loads of great wooden roller coasters and make ticket prices as low as possible.
I'd buy some mountains and woods and let people walk in them.
I'd open a music venue and try to get all of my favourite bands to play. I'd offer a coach to and from the train station and accomodation for anyone who needed it.
I'd design and (pay people to) build my own house with slides and secret passages. I'd miss my family too much to move far away though.

First...feed and cloth and give healthcare to all of the children of the world.

Second...hire Anne Hathaway, Scarlett Johansson, and Jennifer Lopez, to join me in a hot tub.

Third... Buy that surplus Soviet era TU 95 four engine bomber that someone in the Ukraine put on Ebay. And restore it to flying condition. Paint my name on it. And fly it around so I can give the finger to both Biden in Airforce one AND to Trump in the Trump Jet.

Do all the good samaritan helping stuff first. Ya know, end world hunger and whatnot. Casual.

But then- Id travel. Travel in a private jet anywhere I wanted to go with the best camera equipment in the world. Yeah.
