what I would do if I had money

It's a recurrring line of thought that most of us have.

It came to me today (or was it yesterday?) on my way to the races. I saw a sports car I would like to have and I thought "What I could do if I had money."

Of course I am talking about lots of money. Big lottery jackpot kinds of money. Millions and millions of money.

See if you can recognize the funny part.

After I set up my new residence I will exercise everyday and get in fine shape.
(Of course I already have a place to live and why do I need money to exercise? I could be exercising everyday now but I'm not.)

I will get a selection of fine cars to try out.
(I already have a fine old car that I don't pay enough attention to.)

I will build a (insert choice here [sports car, hot rod, chopper, airplane, wooden boat].)
(Detail: I never finish anything, why would having money make that different?)

I will employ all of my family and friends and their jobs will be to take care of themselves and work along side of me on any project they find interesting.
(This is like saying that I expect them to listen to me, something they don't do now. Why would I think it would change just because I was paying them?)

Well most everything I think I would like to do can probably be done on a lesser scale without having gobs of money.

I guess I should just change my thinking to: What I would do if I just did something.
