    A maid. I really don’t like cleaning. I’m not very good at it. I miss a lot of things. I don’t have the attention span, etc. I do it because I have to. I don’t want to live in swallow but gosh, it would be nice to have somebody cleaning my house for me even if it’s just once a month.

        I love the conditional love of my kibby. Conditional love is great when the conditions are easy to fulfill.
        1: feed me
        2: water me
        3: scoop my poops
        4: love me, but not too much

      I have a house. But it’s old and decaying. I want a well-engineered, modern house with great interior design and lots of space. I want to be able to put the couch in the center of the room instead of putting it up against a wall.

        I see the confusion here. Your mixing well engineered with modern.

        I see houses all the time that are brand new construction or within the last 10 to 15 years perhaps all the way back to 08. The materials used are not what they used to be, regulations have gotten tighter and to cut costs contractors are building lesser quality homes. Everything creaks, is loose, cheap particle board and cheap plywood.

        There is very little pride in craftsmanship in Contrustion, Contractor Work. Raw materials are of weaker quality and higher cost. If anyone is looking for quality housing look for pre 2008 homes. While this isn’t a blanket statement, it covers 80 percent or more of modern housing that isn’t concrete.

          No I’m not confused about that. I have seen the problems you talk about. That’s why I felt the need to qualify modern with “well engineered”.

    A proper (CNC) milling machine and lathe, like ones you can work hardened steel with. Lots of better things you could buy for that money, but with a mill and lathe i could make those things for even more money!

    Edit: oh and a proper garage/hobby room to put them in

        This is an efficient method, yes, but it’s doable without money: If you fly enough you rack up enough bonus points to upgrade for free.

        Source: Done it plenty of times. If the flight is four hours or more, that’s when I consider spending my points.

    10,000 acres of land in the northern mountains, with all associated rights (mineral, water, etc.).

    I really, really, really don’t want to have neighbors. I already live in a rural area, and I still have neighbors 1/4 mile away that blast their music at 11pm loud enough to make out the lyrics. I want to be able to see the stars at night with no light pollution, and see wildlife that’s barely seen people.

    there is a pocket star trek novel i can’t find a physical copy for less than 100 US dollars called “a stitch in time”. for some reason they won’t reprint it (they released an audiobook recently but i don’t personally like reading books that are not physical paper books).

      Yeah, my copy is in decent condition, and I’ve had offers of 200 for it.

      Alas, I’m a giant geek and refuse to sell it

      TIL those are out of print and valuable. Most of mine were ex-library copies bought for 50¢ each. I guess I should have kept getting them more diligently, since it sounds like now it would be difficult for me to complete my collection.

    A large property in the woods with a river running through it. I can literally setup my own mini power generation source if the stream is powerful enough. So I get to at least be partly off-grid.
