Fill in the blank: If I was wealthy ...

For myself, I’d buy land and a rather luxurious cabin on POW island, complete with boat. I’d also pay to upgrade the water treatment system on the island, to the greatest extent that’s feasible, if we’re talking billionaire wealthy.
 
I’d buy a small piece of land in northeast Minnesota, surrounded by public land, and spend my time building a small, simple log cabin on it. Nothing fancy. Wood stove and solar lighting. I’d spend November to February trapping out of it. February to April I’d spend with my wife in Florida, shore fishing, shelling, and catching blue and stone crabs. Summers would be spent fishing. I’d also buy up as much land around our house as I could and put conservation easements on it. Most of all, I’d spend my time doing what I want, not what I need to do to pay the bills.

Yep, similar plan here. Nice part is it’s within reach. Only thing different is I’d change it from late Sept-March for grouse/duck hunting, deer season, trapping and ice fishing.

It’s part of my retirement plan as long as trapping is still legal in 15 years. Being wealthy would just expedite it. I honestly think I’d try to use my money to simplify my life. I’d have time to enjoy more sunrises and sunsets, that’s for sure.
