    I wonder what it's like to have money and be an angel investor. If I did have money, of course I'd put it in safe avenues such as local government bonds (for public projects), parks.. and have some money stashed away at a local credit union & bank. But, I wonder what it's like to have worked hard, and chunk money away for investments.

    Guess I have to figure out a day job (and side jobs) to pile money and use it for the future. While I'm young, I still wanna educate myself about the world, travel, learn languages, and make friends / build a global network. And find places to invest money and work different jobs to just... experience life in general :].

    It takes money to make money :'(. Kinda like the legos dude on youtube that buys legos, makes videos, and reinvests that money to buy more legos to make videos and make money again.

    If I could make a youtube, what kind of creative-artsy-fun outlet could I use to make money off of?

    I have a military friend that'll probably retire from the military at age 40. Age 40 sounds like a good way to "retire" and travel and have fun. It's 20 years away from 60, and you can still be hot/attractive. It's like the new 30! Where you're established, have so much experience, AND have money to do whatever you want. 

    Probably a good time to adopt a teenager too. LoLLLL.

    I want to have my cake and eat it too! It'll just be a cake with different flavors and frostings and toppings that make it unique and my own <3. (Referring to life in general). Nobody wants a mid-life crisis. That screams, "I actually didn't live life the way I wanted to."
