Thorp and Sailor's Grave Board

things you would do if you were rich....

XHonusWagnerX - 2-8-2010 at 03:15 PM

I'm talking about the totally frivolous things that rich people do...


I would have a huge record library with full discographys including different pressings and colors of all the Dischord stuff, Revelation, Schism and the few other relivent lables.

I would have a couple of cool cars. Not a Rolls Royce or anything totally insane, but I would have some of my 'dream cars' like a 69 Firebird, a 68 Charger 'General Lee', a KITT Firebird and a Delorean!

I would hook up some people with cash... some that I'm sure would be very grateful, but not totally surprised because they are close friends and then some that would be shocked, but because they are people I really like.

Thats about it... Then I would just do whatever I wanted on any given day... sleep late or get up early... go out to lunch or stay home... take a trip or do nothing... whatever I felt like doing!

I'd do the same, then have Motorhead and La Coka Nostra play at my retirement party.

create art daily. and travel the world, playing unexpected shows randomly.

Start a winery. Attach a pub/ reception halls to it. Put family and friends to work. Buy houses and rent them out at a fair price to single moms with children with the agreement that they have to go to school and finish a degree. So many things I would do if I were rich.

One thing is certain I would travel to all your areas and meet all you. Go to Boston with my son and see several games at Fenway. Especially Boston play Cleveland.

JawnDiablo - 2-8-2010 at 04:57 PM

I'd start my day whenever I decided to wake up, and end it whenever I decided to go to sleep.

"I don't need anymore money. I'm not greedy, as long as I've got my health, my millions of dollars, my gold house, and my rocket car; I don't need anything else."

or this is the other thing that comes to mind

Peter Gibbons: What would you do if you had a million dollars?
Lawrence: I'll tell you what I'd do, man: two chicks at the same time, man.
Peter Gibbons: That's it? If you had a million dollars, you'd do two chicks at the same time?
Lawrence: Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I were a millionaire I could hook that up, too; 'cause chicks dig dudes with money.
Peter Gibbons: Well, not all chicks.
Lawrence: Well, the type of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do.
Peter Gibbons: Good point.
Lawrence: Well, what about you now? what would you do?
Peter Gibbons: Besides two chicks at the same time?
Lawrence: Well, yeah.
Peter Gibbons: Nothing.

The entire active thorp line up would be coming to your each of your houses, along with the top BBQ chefs in the world and only the rarest cuts of meat, and of course fine lentils and tofu for davemoral.


And then I would probably die in a fiery high speed accident in a Bugatti Veyron.

I could see myself giving a ton away for charity. Pay off my parents' mortgage and build a new house on their property if they wanted. Put a few friends in new houses. Get myself and my family a house. Build a kung fu studio on my property with full racks of traditional weapons. That sort of thing.

mattybar - 2-9-2010 at 01:27 PM

oh good call.
i'd also like to add living in various temples around Asia and training all day in various different martial arts for weeks on end.

clevohardcore - 2-9-2010 at 02:15 PM

That would be fun.

necrobutcher - 2-9-2010 at 02:51 PM

I would buy a tropical island and fortify the fuck out of it. Then I would feel ready for anything from breakdown of government to the zombie apocalypse.

Have you ever seen the new show on Animal Planet called "Pit Boss"? You would love it!!! :wink2:

BDx13 - 2-9-2010 at 07:04 PM

oh, that's not about gambling?

Thanks to the internet I can't tell if that is sarcasm or not since it is an "Animal Planet" show but it is a show about a midget who runs a pitbull rescue and a midget talent agency. My fiance loves pits and her friends have an ongoing joke about her being a midget lover so I say it's her "porn".

BDx13 - 2-9-2010 at 07:19 PM

nah, that was serious. i've see it on the on screen guide a couple times and thought it was a reality show about a casino floor. i'm disappointed.

barc0debaby - 2-9-2010 at 10:04 PM

Pitboss is a cool show. The little guy used to be a gangbanger in Los Angeles and did 10 years for an attempted murder rap.

REV.PAULIE - 2-10-2010 at 12:19 PM

1) Make sure Ma,my brother,and my nephews were taken care of for the rest of their lives.

2) Buy nice house with front porch and backyard,with a tree,so I can have a garden.And large kitchen.

3) Tell woman I love to "shut the fuck up and stop being so damned stubborn",and move her and her son into said house.

3) Be happy,and not worry anymore.

wez138 - 2-15-2010 at 10:09 PM

The same as ^^^ but minus the kid.

I'd also pay for my brother's wedding. The whole shabang.
