I’m not sure a million bucks would cover your five things in that category. I suggest you go with a bigger number…

Well they did say Millionaire and not just a million dollars. So I was thinking more. Plus with the housing market a new house ought be cheap if you’re rich!

There’s actually a funny story to that. I made this weird pie in the sky list of “to dos” for before I reached 40. The only one I didn’t achieve was the Porsche although I came close during the dot com boom. We had a ton of contracts and were awaiting payment. I was out shopping for my Porsche. Then the bust and all our clients went belly-up. Ugh.

I’ve actually been fortunate to have eaten in a lot of great restaurants. (My favorite thus far is Gary Danko’s in San Francisco although I’ve not yet eaten in the French Laundry yet). Of course my goal is to have all the best restaurants use my chocolate.

Anyway – you need to put up your lists!

I wanna be more like Clark.

Yeah, well I live amazingly frugally most of the time and have a huge amount of medical debt from my kids. So I’m anything but a millionaire right now.

That would be five-millionaire.

LOL. Although I’d be more than happy to put the Porsche and ranch on hold and just be a millionaire…
