2. Money ALWAYS has some bearing on what you choose to do with the rest of your life.... I don't care how much you got in the banks.... money is ALWAYS a factor. I'm sure even Gates considers the almighty dollar, at some level, (probably not at the average persons level, but....) in regard to things he wants to do. If you spend and spend and spend without a thought in your head about what you're doing... you'll soon end up broke and swapping sob stories with MC Hammer and the rest of the I-Used-To-Be-A-Millionaire-Club.
who said anything about being forced into this business? i am talking about the amount of capital you feel is enough in order to leave this business, and move on to (2).

I don't agree with you on (2). i want to do all kinds of different things, most of which have nothing to do with money. the thing is, once you have enough of it, it's possible to no longer be it's slave.

of course, this doesn't apply to everyone.
