It's the opposite of boring. The more money you have the more opportunity you have for interesting, fun experiences. of course you can be rich and still be bored. ultimately it depends on what you do and what you enjoy, but having money opens doors

Holding 500 bitcoins is a descent amount, I think if you hold that amount than all your dreams are going to be true, even your children would be on safer side in the future and they can easily make 1000 bitcoins out of it, and even with 500 bitcoins you are gonna be a rich gentleman.

I don't think so mate. My dreams are to many and 500 bitcoins are not enough to fulfill those. I want that my children lives at Hollywood and do the life needed there. I want that they have Harvard school and I have three children. I want that they can do charities in big amounts every year for the children which are in need. I want to many other things that I don't want to tell here. So you think that 500 bitcoin are enough?
In my opinion, charities don't worth your money.

Many needy children don't even get the money which you have donated for them.
Best thing is that you should save for your future generations.


Yeah, even I don't believe in charity and the reason is there are chances that the people who are involved in charitable institutions are not genuine and not trustworthy. Like, we are not aware that what they do with our money, If they really use for the benefits of poor children, then it is well and good, but majority of them use it for their personal leisure.

Reminds me on multinationl organizations like savethechildren. That are those with the hungry african childs shown on tv ads.

It seems you cant check if they use the money for the purpose they should. And the accusations against them are many.

I only donate to organizations where i know what they do. But these corrupt ones have enough money to advertise on tv for them. Earning even more with that. Poor grannies see the poor african childs and donate all they have to "them". Not knowing that she only tips some rich gangsters.

Please ALWAYS contact me through bitcointalk pm before sending someone coins.

True, it depends on an individual that what is his perception towards wealth, but if you are wealthy you are open to many opportunities, there are people who are not wealthy but still enjoy their life, and many wealthy people are worried how to multiply their wealth.

People, who have enough money, playing golf, buy own yacht, spend it in worldwide travels, casinos etc. Shortly speaking they have a lot what to do.  Wink

That can be possible if you marry a rich girl  Cheesy who is multi millionaire and you can achieve all your goals by doing nothing, only need to convince her that you are the best guy for her  Grin and you are done. I think it is very simple  Wink

I mean, if you have a lot of capital, the amount of existential press diminishes, right? So you are fully entitled to sit in a meadow and meditate though the rest of your life. What else would you want to do?

I would open a spiritual newage healing clinic if I wanted to do something more.

Money can't buy anything besides power, material things. I think it is kind of boring but it can make life more fun for sure.


Things that you own end up owning you.

One thing is for sure, having more money makes things more convenient. When you're not struggling to get by you are generally happier and tend to enjoy life more fully. people with more money are able to engage in more leisure activities, which should naturally make them happier.

i have a friend you know he is a rich guy, he was studied in a university in new york,his dady bougth him a sport car and everything he want
and he told me that being rich is not happy,i dont know whats going on with him but he always though that wealth is boring,
thats totally different with me
i always think think that being poor is boring ( so sad Cry )

The point is if you earn your own money that's awesome. If you have wealth from your family or lotto etc. that won't make you happy person instantly. You need to do things you like. Think about Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
yup there's fun in earning money on your own.
If your wealth have inherited from your family then you'll think it's boring.

Making money is not fun in most cases, it involves a lot of stress and a lot of doing something you don't want to do for most of your day, and repeat until you are old and tired. I would rather take the "grow up on a wealthy family and live off real state interest" card, thanks.
Too bad im poor.

There's fun in earning money on your own when you already have your needs met; then it's like playing a game and getting a highscore. But before that, you really would rather have enough money for food an clothing and shelther, rather than to be dirt poor and starving, just so you have the opportunity to create a rags to riches story.

money doesn't buy happiness, and people can be happy without it. It's just a problem that is a statistical average, not a guarantee of discontent.

You can't be happy without money because you'd be dead. Starved to death or freezed to death, depending on the season.

thats not true, you can end up living in care centers or being fed by other people with a winter coat sleeping on the ground, and it will depend if you are happy on what are your life priorities...

If you can find people to feed you, in essence, you still have money. It's like beggars begging for money, they're "working' in a sense, and earning money. Even if you directly obtain food items instead of money, it's really the same thing.

Wealth has its own problems, it is not too boring if you put your wealth to the move (taking care of businesses, attending petitions from family, thinking on investing opportunities or charities)

And you can always give a great percentage away and have the standard pressures  Grin

Create an income from your wealth, and live on that income. No need to spend all your wealth because then you become poor.

But from that income spent you can have alot of fun, wealth=freedom=fun.

Not in all countries, in USA you see homeless people living on the streets everywhere, living off whatever cash people throw at them out of pity.
Its pretty pathetic to end like that, I don't think anyone would be happy like that unless you have a few screws loose up there.

Ok guys, I'll bite the bullet. Everyone give me as much money they can so I can live the life of wealth. I'll make a report and post everyday so I can share my experience as a wealthy person. It's ok I'll make the sacrifice so we can finally answer this question. Grin

I think your viewing it wrong. To those that have what many would consider absurd amounts of wealth, it becomes something entirely different, it becomes a game.
