(assuming you weren’t “born rich”)

What do you define as being “rich”?

Or how would your life change if you won the lottery?

Without such wealth, can you still do something like what you would desire with such wealth? (Like if a person wants an expensive car, they might be able to read and discuss about what they like about such cars, etc.)

    Funny you say you would feel more free. I think if I came from money there would have been many expectations of me going to a fancy school and having a successful career. My marriage options would have been guided and I may even have been expected to take over a family business. Basically my life planned out by family with incredible power.

    Since I came from a modest lower middle class family, all anybody expected me to do was pay for myself. I’ve pretty much been able to do whatever I wanted as long as they didn’t have to help me make rent. I’ve traveled, tried different kinds of jobs, and even started my own little company on the side.

    Why have you not learned to draw or play an instrument? Do you suffer from long work hours or inadequate pay? If so, my apologies, this world isn’t built fairly.
