edit: “not work” as in “food, housing, and healthcare needs are met,” not as in “billionaire super-villain money”
I would sail sail the great lakes for weeks at a time.
I would write more music, and hire musicians to play it with me.
I would spend half the summer growing food (which I already do!)
I would continue to invest in my own mental health, but spend more time meditating.
I have chronic fatigue (to simplify a longer story), and spending that precious energy solving logic puzzles for a paycheck is sometimes pretty demoralizing.
I would mostly do more of what I am already doing, spending as much time as possible surrounded by nature, for me personally — woods. Or, riding my bike even more… Learning and reading even more, plus programming level 9000 on the side.
I could visit Iceland and Japan without overthinking it too much…
Oh! If this “needs are met” applies to others too, then I could spend more time with people that are now grinding hard all this working or parenting life. If it doesn’t apply — then I could try to do my best that it would.
