What would you do with your life if you didn't have to work?
The other day my wife saw a "to do" list at a relative's house. Among many other trivial things was "alphabetize DVD collection". These people are newly retired and I know the husband was reveling in his newfound ability to do nothing all day every day, but I'd imagine that wears off at some point and you just get bored.
So, what would you do? Let's say you can maintain your current standard of living just for the sake of the conversation.
My wife and I discussed it and I really have no clue what I'd do. Right now I own my own business and have 2 young children and between work and all their school/sports stuff I'm pretty busy. I have time to take care of most things around the house, get to the gym, ride my bike, play guitar every now and then, etc. but I certainly can't imagine having nothing to do all day every day. I think I'd go insane.
