Day 5 GREED

7 material desires.
Huh, this list would have been easier 20 years ago. I'm far from rich, but you do tend to amass stuff throughout your lifetime!
Also, I have pretty low brow tastes and desires. I have a lap top, internet access, a car, a house and a couple of horses. What more could a girl ask for? (I have great non-material things too, of course, but this post is about greed ...)
So, let's say I won the lottery and wasn't willing to give any away (which I totally would do, because I think it would be way more fun to make my friends and family rich, but yeah ... also not the point of this post.)
Shit I would buy if I had 10 million dollars.
1) Full time maid. Like, Alice, from the Brady Bunch, but sexier and male. ;)
2) Full time cook. I don't mind cooking, but stuff that other people make is always yummier!
3) Some sort of huge, fantastic indoor riding arena for my horses. There was one for sale near us last year. Only 4 million dollars. *sigh*
4)A nice big house somewhere warm. Florida? Hawaii? Bermuda? Maybe all three.
5) Oh God, a ZOO! I don't think I'd get much for only 10 mil, but i would LOVE to be the owner of a zoo! I WOULD HAVE MY OWN GIRAFFE! :D
6) Art supplies? Wow, that would be a LOT of art supplies.
7) Honestly? All I'd really like is more time. If I was rich, and didn't have to work, I wouldn't need to buy much. My maid and cook (and stable boy RAWR) would free up a lot of time for me to do all the stuff I'd like to do.

whose turn is it to do the bathroom etcno subject

This was almost 10 years ago. Circumstances have changed, but she still comes twice per month. I'd love to afford her every single week. (or day) :D
