What would you do if you had the means?
Just wondering what you guys would do if you had the financial means to invest in just about anything you wanted? I'm not talking about consumable items here; I'm talking about investments you could make a return/income on? I'm not rich by any means of the word, but I do have enough in savings to go out on my own and start my own business. I'm not the kind of guy who likes working for someone else (although there are benefits to it as well); I've always been more comfortable making my own decisions and going my own path. Trouble is, I don't know exactly what path I want to head down. It sucks because I just turned 30 this month, and I feel like I'm a freshman in college still trying to decide what I want to be when I grow up lol!
I have a background in construction (particularly concrete). I went out on my own once doing this when I was 24, but I really don't know if I would be happy doing it for the long term. I've also thought about real estate, but I just don't know if I would be passionate enough about it to make it succeed (and, in my opinion, being passionate about what you're doing is one of the biggest factors in whether or not you find success in your endeavor).
Let's just say, for argument sake, that you had $100,000 to invest in something. We're also factoring in that you are debt free and also have a reserve set aside in case of emergency. Now, I know that $100,000 isn't a great deal of money, but it's more than many people start out with when they play entrepeneur.
Would just like to get you guys' opinions/ideas on what you feel would be a good investment/what you would be passionate about doing if you weren't doing what you're doing now.
Let's hear it guys! Would like to hear some practical thoughts (not something like you're planning on buying 51% of stock from Wal-Mart lol).
