First off, if you aren't someone who has goals like this, or thinks that this kind of spending is flashy and unnecessary, don't post in here.

Everyone has goals of things they want to buy one day, whether it be cars, watches, rare animals, expensive wine, etc.
So basically, what are you going to buy yourself as a reward for when you know you've made it?

Recently, I was planning out my summer work, and realized that looking at pictures of what I want when I'm older will definitely encourage me to build my business and work harder etc etc.

Personally, there are a few things I want to buy one day

Spoiler

Repay my parents for my college tuition.

The following things are all extremely superficial, vain, and unnecessary.

Spoiler

A Rolex Submariner watch.
I collect watches now, and don't really think that Rolex is worth the money because they have inferior movements and quality compared to other brands such as Omega and Patek, but it's necessary to have one in a collection. Plus, a rare Rolex never loses value and becomes an investment.

Spoiler

An Airedale terrier or a Husky.

Spoiler

A German car, preferably an Audi. Or maybe a BMW, or even an American Cadillac. Depends on what's going on in the auto world at the time

MOST IMPORTANTLY:

Spoiler

A beautiful house with family and kids

So, what silly possessions do you want?

[iargue]

All I want is a wife who loves me, and a house to live in.

[WharfRat]

Yeah... enough to buy a rolex, a nice house, and an italian car would be nice and all... but I doubt any of that would make me really happy...

I just want to make enough money to be able to live comfortably, pay for my children to go to college, go out and eat all the time, and be able to take two weeks to a month off every year and travel to some other country.

Being able to provide for my family and eat well plus nice vacations is all I'm really after. The rest is just a bonus.

All I want is a wife who loves me, and a house to live in.

Make enough money and you can buy those.

Some bitches/hoes

.....more bitches/hoes

[Adina]

1. Plastic surgery.
2. Laser eye surgery.
3. Expensive shoes/dresses/clothes in general.
4. Jeep.
5. Donate to random interesting foundations.
6-infinity. Pointless crap I'll never need in my life but want just for kicks. The list of material possessions I would love to have will never end. I'll never be happy with the things I own.

[Kido]

What I really want: Admission into a good university next year.

What I really DON'T want: going swimming this summer.

The rest I can deal with some other time....but a Ferrari would be nice....

Why stop and settle there ?

Obviously, family needs come first. However, I also plan on pampering myself before I have kids
Vacations are very nice, I forgot to include that in the list.

And yeah, that's the goal

Lasik eye surgery is very risky, I'd advise you to look into it to see if you really want it.
My roommate was planning on getting it, we researched for a few hours one day, he no longer wants it.

What kind of Jeep? I love Wranglers.

What I really want: Admission into a good university next year.

What I really DON'T want: going swimming this summer.

The rest I can deal with some other time.

Good luck

[Rooshy]

Materialistically, there's not much that I want, but my biggest goal right now, is to grow another inch or two. Haha.

Yeah, I'd put laser eye on my list if I wasn't absolutely terrified.

Student loans being paid off in full will be nice. Shouldn't take huge amounts of time because I got through a lot of my degree with scholarships.


I'd like a nice house, probably somewhere in the Home Counties seeing as it looks like both our careers will be settled in London for a good time yet. Don't want to live here though. House hunting has been happening for a while now. Much duller than I expected it to be.

I'm definitely a holidays girl more than anything. I've been to most places I particularly want to go (for now) but there's certainly a lot of places I'd like to go back to and with nicer hotels etc than managing it all on a limited budget!

We're not having children so makes it all a bit easier for us, children are stupidly expensive things.

Sounds great, but what exactly is Home Counties?
-silly American question-

*Forgets she's in international territory here*

England is divided into counties, like mini-states for you. The Home Counties are the ones that border London (and are therefore the easiest places to live in a nice village or market town but still be able to commute to the city without too much hassle)

I gotcha, it's basically like where I live in relation to New York City it seems. Good choice

Think "Suburbs."

Think drinking Pimms between games of croquet, fox hunting and Tory voting.

My cousin got it done a year or two ago. She's one of the successful Lasiks, she had no problems and everything went well. My grandmother got it done as well (vain!). Apparently, they have good doctors in Antigua. I'm thinking about getting it done as well in the future.

Buy a wife? No thank you

Why stop and settle there ?

Its not settling. Its all I want

[BEEEEWRRYY]

Aside from a wife and house. I'd prefer a nice silver movado watch over a rolex. Plus a bimmer would definitely be nice and like one balling ass suit like the ones barney stintson has.

[Kat]

As far as material things go I want the most ballin' computer money can buy.. with like 3 giant screens *twitch*
and maybe a nice car, but i don't care what kind as long as it looks nice
to be able to buy the clothes and shit i want
expensive ass shit for my hair that i can never afford (salon shampoos and shit)
a bigass tv

but really as long as i am able to support myself nicely and be happy then it's whatever

[Rooshy]

Lol. Wife prostitution?

[Gen]

I've few of this kind of goals, they'd be buying a nice house somewhere safe and calm, with people to take care of it for me, like a maid, and have a English Mastiff. Having a wife and kids doesn't really fit into this category lol...

[Fresca]

Awwww.

But what if your wife was a meth addict and the house you lived in was a piece of shit run down shack that she cooked meth in and she was fucking all of her meth customers?

Aaaannnnd right now I just want to lose like 5lbs. I always do though, so no big.

[Rooshy]

Hm, I wouldn't mind doing that either.
But then again, I think looking like a complete stick is gross... D:

[Plunk]

I just want any car, as well as my license. I'm sick of not being able to go out and do anything.

[shayla]

Right now I just waannt to get through college!! I also waant my brother to come home for good
