If you had an unlimited budget for 24 hours, what would you do?
I know a few people who have changed their life’s fortune from having humble means to sustain life, to later on having a life that got better in terms of finance and possessions. Two among them have expressed that they now find life a little less, livelier now that many things of requirement were easily affordable, and the joy of having to save, dream, imagine and finally get it was fading away. I honestly did not understand, because whether my finances are touching the sky in terms of anthill high or if it is getting washed away down the river (which is often), I never do think much about it.
But yes, there are conveniences that can be brought into life with better finance and these conveniences can surely provide you better tools and conditions to do better work. At least for me, it has that implication.
Thus, if there was this imaginary prospect of an unlimited budget, I would probably make some diversified investments without thinking much and get those conveniences that I spoke of. I would ensure I don’t get too flown away with it, because there is work to be done and I love my work, so my budget, whether it is limited or like my actuality non-existent, I still have my love for my work and that’s all I want. I would have mentioned my family here as well here, but I don’t want to compare their importance with something like budget.
