There is no arguing that money makes a great deal of things easier; but say you had all the money you needed to have all the time and stability you feel you require right now. What do you think you would be searching for then?

Develop my passions, dedicating myself to hobbies and managing my life. Having my own, modest home, stablishing my career and planing for the future. I could have time (and the money) to go out more and travel to another country. I could have time to attend a gym and actually afford a diet correctly or even buy the machines and exercise home. I could buy and learn to play more instruments, learn more languages, buy and read more books and take care of my appearance with calm. So basically everything I need and therefor, happiness.

Able to get more than 4-5 hours sleep.
Possibility of a relationship; not being considered a creep or a threat by default, at least normal looking and not awkward. No dark family background, not having to feel ashamed of my existence(different father, anyone else)
Okay that just sounds like a list of complaints...

Rodent said:I am relatively content at the moment, but if I knew that a bottom line of security and stability was guaranteed even for the next 50-60 years I'd certainly be more content. Since that's unlikely to happen...it would be nice to effectively hone my skills and get excellent at something which I can ideally turn it into a profit many years down the line to ensure my survival. Oh yeah, and more insight into the human condition would be helpful so I don't go insane.

I truly believe that...I can deal with a certain amount of plain absurdity and the unknown by laughing it off, but I think I've reached the point where I'm better off knowing even uncomfortable truths, so I end up in fewer situations that just leave me perplexed and petrified. I'd prioritize this understanding over a skin-deep happiness any given day.

Peace of mind
What would you say would create a state of "peace of mind" for you, I know people whose lives I would concider chaotic who feel more at peace than anyone I have ever met, what does peace of
mind mean to you Inmyhead?

Peace of mind would be knowing those I love will be okay. Knowing I will be okay. Acceptance in knowing I've done my best. Accepting myself for who am I as a person.
