What would you do with your time if you didn't have to work to meet your food, housing, and healthcare needs? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Re-creating this thread a different server.

edit: "not work" as in "food, housing, and healthcare needs are met," not as in "billionaire super-villain money"

I would sail sail the great lakes for weeks at a time.

I would write more music, and hire musicians to play it with me.

I would spend half the summer growing food (which I already do!)

I would continue to invest in my own mental health, but spend more time meditating.

I have chronic fatigue (to simplify a longer story), and spending that precious energy solving logic puzzles for a paycheck is sometimes pretty demoralizing.

Tabletop gaming and things adjacent. I primarily love three RPGs, but I also like board games. Also enjoy doing campaign prep, writing software utilities, 3d printing, and other arts and crafts type things related to tabletop gaming.

I like PC games, too, but seldom play them anymore. My reflexes are slower now, and I miss hanging with friends IRL. If I didn't have to work, I'd probably catch up on some of the backlog of older games.

I also feel like most new big publisher PC games kind of suck and are formulaic money grabs. But every now and then a real indy gem comes out, and I get hooked for a little while.

We should hang out once we don't have to work anymore.

Let's do it! I can't wait for 2054!

Shit. That date sounds a little optimistic. I'll only be 72 by then, that's just barely over halfway to Millennial retirement age!
