How Much Money is Enough? (Day 1)

That's the question of the day and will begin Day 1 of the Write Every Day Project. We'll see how many days I can keep it up.

Because I have enough...for now. I have enough money for most things. I could pay cash for whatever I wanted now. Today. (Would I do it? No. But I could.)

I don't have enough money to quit the day job. I don't have enough saved for the kids' college fund. (Then again having found James Altucher and his views on college, I'm really rethinking the whole needing to go to college myth.).

Well, I could stop working for a little bit. So... the answer is I have enough, but not enough-enough. But let's say I have enough-enough, WHAT WOULD I DO WITH MYSELF ALL DAY?

Play poker? Play chess? Day trade? Start a t-shirt company. Make soap. Make toys. Make kids' furniture.

I need to answer this question, and I need to start figuring it now because I have enough money now and the time to explore. Otherwise, 5, 10 years from now, I'll have even more money and will have to start answering the question then.

What do I want to do all day?
Stop chasing the money and think about: what do i want to do all day? what makes me happy?

I like to read. To write. To make things. To travel with the kids. Train JJ. Learn to surf.
