It is difficult to imagine how my life will be if I don't have any financial worries because I had been living with financial concerns for ever since I understood about money and how I sometimes overheard my parents discussed about their lack of funds.
Stumbled upon this challenge, it got me thinking again - how would I lead my life without any financial worries? To come out with this piece, I had to think in the line of "what will I do if I have alot of money?".
And bam!!! There are so many things that I want to do or achieve if I have alot of money!
Family
Firstly, I will fulfil my parents' wish because they are going to leave the earth sooner than I (if God doesn't take my life away first). After all, they had laid down alot for me and my siblings. It is also one of my wishes for them.
To own a big palace bungalow, precisely 4 stories (one is underground) where we all siblings stay together with parents. As long as they have energy, they can help to babysit our children (we promise we won't have alot). People say if the older ones growing old doing something meaningful, they are actually growing younger. Yay? Then I can be assured my parents can live longer. At the same time, we siblings can take care of them under the same roof. Growing old together in one another arms' of love is always what I pray for.
Because of financial constraint, my family and I never have the chance to travel. So what to wait? Certainly there will be once or twice a year for family vacation. After all, building memories is good till everlasting. Disneyland will be our first (and maybe regular) spot. Also we would love to visit Israel as well as 7 wonders of the world.
Apart from these, I love to imagine I can pamper Jansen (my CDH survivor) with good supplement that he needs, like colostrum and probiotic and prebiotic that will help in his growth and overall development. Of course I will indulge in the whole array of essential oils that will help him combat many complication that he has right now. No mummy in the world will be happy to hear their child/children is/are classified under "failure to thrive".
Self-love
It has been a consistent dilemma whenever I do my groceries. When you always need to budget, you tend to choose the cheapest among the cheapest vegetables or meat or fish to cook for family. You could only imagine cooking cod fish in the dream.
Some fruits are really expensive at my country so we opt for cheaper breed of apples and oranges. Papayas and bananas is our norm because they are darn cheap. Without any financial worries, I will buy berries more. And I can start to add avocado into sandwiches and salad daily! Not to forget those imported sweet grapes as well as gold kiwi. Slurp!
Yes, I will not be shy to announce this - I would go for braces to align my teeth, and maybe my jaw too if I have the gut. Then I can reduce the incident of me always biting my own mouth flesh due to misalignment of jaw and teeth. Hence, I also have lots of ulcer due to this. Ouch! Wearing braces will be journey of patience but everyone loves to look pretty and confident.
There are many pleasures around I would love to indulge. But I think I am pretty safe because I don't really need to feed myself with too much pleasure to get satisfied. Therefore I am confident to say I will not be a big spender. However, when money is not an issue, you will occasionally give yourself and friends and family a big treat!
Community
This is a must as I have dreamt for years to build old folks home, orphanages, home for the homeless and a center to give free food to the poor. Of course then I need to hire and train alot of people from different expertise to run the center. This in return creates job opportunities for many. Well, no doubt there will be more commitments and responsibilities. With money comes power. With power comes responsibilities. Just got to be ready!
Not to forget a center for homeless or lost or sick animals too. For this, I will train up my son to manage it in the future. He is 7 years old now and has been asking me to bring home this cat or that dog or those chickens for him to take care. But you see, not only my apartment's rules do not allow pets at home, I also do not have the extra to feed them. The last I want is I fork out money to feed the animals but nothing left for the family.
With no financial restraint, all the above can be done with a snap of fingers. Nope, I am not Thanos. Infinity Stones I have none, but infinity $$$.
Steemit
Since I become a Steemian, I come to know about noble thing to do here that is to delegate Steem Power (sp) to communities that serve for the betterment of the community. I will buy SBD/STEEM (see how is the market) to pump up my SP to be delegated away to whichever communities that need it. Yes, any great communities that are in this platform. Let me tell you a few that I know of.
And
many more...
Turns out, there are not just a few... There are many!
When you do not have any financial worries, you won't need to calculate much. Just give and give and give. I am really assuming money will always come to me like waterfall. Everlasting abundance sort of!
I really have to stop now before the readers start to yawn. There are so many aspects of life to venture if you do not need to worry about financial lack, therefore so many to write about. Travelling, eating good food, having better lifestyle, building up a slum community, giving education to the poor, building libraries in the rural area, building Disneyland in my country, meeting Steemians all around the world, joining Steemfest, the list goes on....
I will speak to you soon on another time at another blog.
