When do you open?

Me?

Make stuff. Still. Only now I get to play with 14-22K and AAA tourmaline and torches. I'd also go to grad school for no reason except to learn stuff.

 

[satindesire]

Play video games.

I would SO be a beta tester in a second.

A toy store. Our kind of toys. "Floor models" of most of the toys, for people to try 'em out, either on their own bodies, or their pyl's, or on the kind of dummies they use in CSI that are so lifelike in their response to various traumas (traumae? ) A custom leather shop in half of the rear part of the store, with an expert leatherworker to devise whatever the customer's minds could come up with. A custom woodworking shop in the other half of the rear part, with an expert cabinet-maker/craftsman to devise/design/make whatever kinky furniture the customers want. All at very reasonable prices, because after winning the lottery I wouldn't need to make a big profit, just enough to keep the IRS from declaring it a hobby (thus not allowing me to take operating expenses off my taxes), and I know that a lot of folks in our culture are not independently wealthy and able to afford whatever toys they really want.

Can I be a toy tester?


Seriously, I would like to be a patient advocate in a hospital for those that don't have family members there for them.

(though I still would love to test all kinds of sex toys ... on video for the exhibitionist in me..)

Horse stuff. Riding, taking care of them, maybe dabbling in a little training. I'm going to law school, but my fondest dream is to own a tack shop. Not a little tack shop, but a huge warehouse-sized one and run it myself. A good gaited horse magazine would be nice, too. There isn't a single one out there right now. I won't give up my ponies and all things associated with them for anything in this world.

 

[neonflux]

Ditto Netz on becoming a student again.

I have a fantasy of opening up a sex club that is exactly like Shortbus.

But honestly, I'd write, write, write...

 

[callinectes]

I am pretty close to having my dream job as it is. Bureaucratic BS, the annoying requirement of having to be in at 8:00 AM, and blatent ass kissing to climb the ladder keep it from being the ultimate dream job. If I won the lottery and didn't need the income, I'd volunteer with the agency I work for now so I would still get to do all of the fun stuff in the field without the other encumberances. That would be a dream!

Following the rules of Quint's game...I'd like to own a shop that sold china, crystal, silver, table linens, etc. I know it's terribly establishment, but I adore good dinnerware.

I kind of like the question, "what would you do for a 'living' if you won the lottery?" To me, that means, "what do you love doing so much that you'd continue to do it even if you had absolutely no financial need to work?"

For me, that's my cafe. I want to design, own, and cook for a little cafe. A place where pancakes are served in 50 flavors all day, as well as quiche, pastry, soup, sammiches--all the tasty little brunch treats that I love so very, very much. No pretension or snooty attitude, just good food and great atmosphere. Music always playing (though quietly enough that it doesn't interfere with conversations!), some events during the week like live bands or poetry readings or something.

There would be art from local artists all over, available for purchase but mostly there to add a kind of funky, regional feel to the place. Eventually I'd like to make it a sort of bistro/boutique and officially have a store up front with arts, crafts, books, etc from local creative types available for browsing and purchase. When we were in NYC, there was a place like this called Serendipity--had the neat, slightly off-kilter goods up front and then you went to the back for an awesome meal. Great concept. Like an upscale Cracker Barrel.

So that's my dream job. What's yours?

I'd do a lot of charity and set up some foundations work.

I'd so a lot of work in the arts, making sure the community had the support they needed to have a lot of things happen in that arena. I might fund some festivals and museums that I have in mind.

I'd find a way to sing on a regular basis, get some books published and continue to tell stories.

 

[sexycaz22]

My dream job - would be to write and more write, and to travel to all countries I wanted to visit, to visit local deaf people, to find out all about their sign languages and then I would write the book about different sign languages, comparing and everything else!

Once that is all finished, I would settle down in a huge house in the country, and retire early, and relax with my dream Dom, submitting to Him in every way possible.

 

[HottieMama]

i would pursue singing.

i still dream of being a rock star.

Lucky him.... lol


Mine would be a club DJ... travelling the world, playing good music and making people happy..

Saying that, the one I have now is pretty good... I am quite happy with it

 

[CutieMouse]

I haven't decided yet... there are too many choices. LOL

 

[Evil_Geoff]

I would open and run a lifestyle community establishment. The Keep.
It would be Leather/toy store by day, dungeon by night.
I've thought about locating it in a former school for many reasons. I'd want a big assembly area to use as a "general dungeon", classrooms could be converted into individual theme rooms...

I'd have one room done up like a military tent for "interrogation scenes", one set up with a couple of jail cells, one like an Arabian Nights or harem scene, I'd want a gym with showers for water sports, cafeteria for meals/social room, maybe a pool, track for pony races...

It could be a place for conferences, educational seminars, leather runs, etc.

With my Leather Family to run the joint.

And maybe I could get Master Doug Harris to help me do the interior layout and design... as tribute to Him, boy bob, and the Sanctuary of a Dark Angel.

 

[amadaun]

I'd love to run a small organic farm and sell vegetables, fruits, cheeses, and maybe some breads and pastries on the premises, and possibly even do buffet-style outdoor lunches a few days a week in the summer in a progressive-ish rural community. I might also want to offer a field-trip program there for inner-city kids, or rent it out and cater for groups to use it as an outdoor workshop space.

Yarr, sounds so good right now. Too bad I don't buy lottery tickets.

Wow. That's an amazing idea. Why don't you?

 

[zuzub]

I think I would have become an actress. Acceptable/managable drama. Plus, you get paid for it.

 

[Exogenous]

I'd like to own/operate a farm for retired and pensioned racehorses, whether they are Thoroughbreds, Quarter Horses, etc. I'd like to afford being able to claim horses that are no longer truly sound to race or horses who are unable to breed.

There are many racehorses that end up in the slaughterhouse or being sold to foreign sites for that purpose.

Having visited so many breeding farms, and seeing the way those horses live like kings, it would be wonderful to give that same way of life to the "unwanted" horses, taking care of them. There are very few rescue-type operations for equines. It would just be so great to help horses who are aged and/or unsound (for racing or other purposes) live out happy, healthy lives.

 

[Evil_Geoff]

Two words.

Startup capital.

As in - I don't have any.

If I ever win the lottery, it's a done deal.

Do you have estimates? What about market? Is there one where you are?

 

[CutieMouse]

Play with 16th century books again. Which will mean a few months of study to brush up on things I'm not so confident about anymore, but it would be so fun to play with books and study book arts (repair, paper marbeling, binding, etc)... I'd get to do research and fondle old books and play with all the art and paper and history...

And then when I wasn't playing with old books, I'd go back to playing in the kitchen, and entertaining, and doing all the domestic arts things I've always been drawn to- making my home a comfy place and spending time on things like knitting and felting and sewing and art...
