I mean, if I actually got the money I'd probably actually use part of it or one of those investment visas to move to the UK or the US. I'd be there now if I could get a job/visa, but as a 24-year-old without any grandfathering capabilities there aren't many options.
It's a million dollars though, not a million rand.
Yes, hence why I said that R15 M is fantastic at 65 to live out your life, it is dicey at age 40 and younger.
I suppose it's what you define as work really. Certainly I'd never go be employed by someone ever again. However just a million would make me conscious about the well running dry at some point. Certainly blackjack and hookers are eating into a fair chunk. I'd be looking at investing in property as a money maker, which when you think about whats going on with it (renovations, refits, renting, some other words begining with r) it does become an employment as such. Even tracking markets for investing is a kind of work in a way.
Yeah, this. I already only work 10-15 hour weeks and provide a more than comfortable life for myself and my family. I could work normal hours and earn way more money, but what's the point? I probably won't live to make fifty, and the family will be gone before that too.
Genuinely prefer being in the office than at home sometimes. I get home and I just want to veg in front of the TV doing nothing. Not to say it takes forever to get there thanks to rush hour traffic. I actually stay an extra 2-3 hours in the office in the evening trying to do something productive on my laptop (i don't actually take that home anymore, the distraction of just monging out in front of football manager is high) or just simply reading . Then its a nice easy 15 min drive home.
Absolutely agree with this 100%.
