    A proper (CNC) milling machine and lathe, like ones you can work hardened steel with. Lots of better things you could buy for that money, but with a mill and lathe i could make those things for even more money!

    Edit: oh and a proper garage/hobby room to put them in

    10,000 acres of land in the northern mountains, with all associated rights (mineral, water, etc.).

    I really, really, really don’t want to have neighbors. I already live in a rural area, and I still have neighbors 1/4 mile away that blast their music at 11pm loud enough to make out the lyrics. I want to be able to see the stars at night with no light pollution, and see wildlife that’s barely seen people.

      I have a house. But it’s old and decaying. I want a well-engineered, modern house with great interior design and lots of space. I want to be able to put the couch in the center of the room instead of putting it up against a wall.

        I see the confusion here. Your mixing well engineered with modern.

        I see houses all the time that are brand new construction or within the last 10 to 15 years perhaps all the way back to 08. The materials used are not what they used to be, regulations have gotten tighter and to cut costs contractors are building lesser quality homes. Everything creaks, is loose, cheap particle board and cheap plywood.

        There is very little pride in craftsmanship in Contrustion, Contractor Work. Raw materials are of weaker quality and higher cost. If anyone is looking for quality housing look for pre 2008 homes. While this isn’t a blanket statement, it covers 80 percent or more of modern housing that isn’t concrete.

          No I’m not confused about that. I have seen the problems you talk about. That’s why I felt the need to qualify modern with “well engineered”.

    Heated foot bath. They’re not that expensive, but its real roman emperor hours if you work from home and can have a jacuzzi for your feet.

    Private Jet. Not because I want to live like a billionaire but because I friggin hate going through TSA and lately every time I travel the airlines seem to have little value-add over just driving.

      TSA Precheck. Yes, it’s borderline extortion but it really is a LOT faster and more stress free at major hubs.

        I’m already waiting for my interview. But it’s more than that. It’s having to go through it at all. It’s their treatment of people. It’s the super spreader event that is an aircraft and an airport. It’s the treatment of people by the airlines and the whole schedule thing. It’s dealing with other passengers. I live in Florida, yup the crazy one. In the last four flights I’ve taken it took 20 hours to get home from Canada, 36 hours to get home from Tennessee and 15 hours to get home from Colorado. I mean WTF!

        I took a private airplane once and I parked for free at Signature services, walked into a, large mostly empty lobby area with free cookies and got on the plane. When I got back, the crew, and I swear I’m not making it up, actually brought out a red carpet. It was ridiculously short, like 2 feet, with a ridiculously short velvet rope to match it. I walked through the same lobby, grabbed a cookie and hopped in my car and went home. That was it. Friggin fantastic. I do admit this was prior to 9/11. Since I’m not privy to such treatment normally I’ve never taken another private flight so I don’t know how much has changed. But THAT’S the way to travel… unless the OP meant something like a teleporter instead.

        Also I’m not sure it’s borderline extortion. Feels like flat out extortion, but I see your point.

    Bread maker. Fresh bread all the time with minimal effort. Takes too much space and isn’t worth the spend

    A personal datacenter with 3-digit terabytes of storage, terabytes of RAM, and 3-digit CPUs. Unless I win the lottery (and the safe withdraw rate on these investments are high enough), I won’t be getting any of this.

        This is an efficient method, yes, but it’s doable without money: If you fly enough you rack up enough bonus points to upgrade for free.

        Source: Done it plenty of times. If the flight is four hours or more, that’s when I consider spending my points.
