100 million...

:(

why the long face spunky?

i really dont know

Its weird, as inspired you are by reading davidd, I feel a big lack.

What you say about women, and how you are never with the same girl, just feel wrong. This is the materialistic vision you could expect from a rich guy. I mean, I could never be happier than when I am with the love of my life. This person makes everyday worth the effort, and with all the gold, without this person I would feel desperate. Its like finally finding that person you desired, your true half.

Enjoying yourself, travelling, its all things that I do. Maybe not in places as expensive as yours, but I agree, I would do the same if I was a millionnair.

I have many girlfriends who are strippers. They are great girls, but it is clear for them that they are doing this for CASH. They love men and dressing up, but the reason why they do it is to get the money. And they go see guys to get more of it. When they come to see you, thats what they come for. They are perfect for you, because they follow your lifestyle of leisure and luxury, and they expect to be thrown away after consomation. Thats kinda sad. You are used to easy things, and easy girls is natural. Everything has to be fast.

I truly whish you find the *real* girl.

Then again, I dont know you and may be judging you in a wrong way.

Do it, there is internet everywhere.


I used to poke fun at people who rented and leased everything. I understand the mindset of people with money doing it, not the mindset of people with no money trying to live richly. I was joking a couple months ago with a friend and said, "Dude, when I want to leave here I just will make a phone call to the leasing people and say 'Yeah, come and pick up the furniture, car, and I will leave the keys to the house on the counter'"

Fine vehicles. I loved my 911, and would buy another one when I settle down in one place for more than 6 months. Although I was pondering a road trip around the South West for the spring... That would be fun. Meet some cool people and have some alone time.

The person to travel with is my goal. That is why I target the Euros that are on the 'stripper circuit'. They are already on the road, and it is the mindset I love. Currently I visit them back in their home lands, and go around Europe with them. I would never go to another country again, without knowing someone there. You can only research an itinerary so much, but locals know it all.

In the end the question you have to ask is, can you tolerate another person for 24 hours a day? I can't and I know it. I hate being the entertainer, as most people are clinging and need another person to do everything for them. I have enough worrries of my own let alone having to worry if the other person 'is having fun'. So if you can set youself up with something similar to what I have, it is easier. You land, hang out with friends for a few days to a week, move on to another country.

I have the good fortune of knowing the right people. I have a good friend who works for Intercontinental Hotels. So in Europe I stay at the Crowne Plaza, Intercontinetals, and Holiday Inns (European ones are much different than USA), at very attractive rates (Less than $100 a night). Last time I was in Prague I had a 600 Euro a night suite for $100 a night. So with unfettered spending on dining, entertainment, hotels, and airfare it is about $10K give or take. Flights out of the USA are the only option for me. I find the rest of the world gets raped on their airfare.


Glad to hear it. As I said in a previous post, I just wish someone had sat me down and told me this shit a long time ago. I would have listened.

I am not a slut :) Do not interpret my comments as "Yeah, I am laying pipe on every continent with anything 2 legs and smells like a woman".

I am an observer of the human condition. My whole life has been reading people and my surroundings, and navigating the terrain based upon these interpretations.

I will send you a copy of the book, when it is done. You will see the enigma inside of the riddle that has been named DavidD.

-dd

Is it weird if I find it arousing?? :(

in the year 2040 maybe.

Can a girl get some traffic here?!?!

Don't you get sick of the travel? Not having your "own" space. I do not buy lots of things for the reasons you mentioned. They tend to own me versus me woning them but I do like having a home to rejuvenate in.

Shit this makes me want to ditch the girlfriend and do a Kerouac

Travel - I try to spend atleast 10 days in each place. I am in Florida for 2 weeks, the Caribbean for 2 weeks, Europe for 10 days, repeat. The day in transit, sucks, and I always say, "This is the last time". Then at the end of the 2 weeks, I say, "It has been another lovely 2 weeks, time to visit the other life."

That is the thesis behind my book, can a person maintain multiple lives? I have found the answer to be yes. I have a life in Florida, a life in the Caribbean, and a life in Europe. All of them flowing at the same time, with no or little connection to each other.

Shit - What some people call possessions. They weigh you down. I am by no means a gypsy. I have a home base, Florida, in which I own everything. So there is an anchor, that I can come down back to at all times, and I have found no other place on this planet like where I live in Florida. I just was never fooled into the consumption based principles of, "Buy this, it will make you feel good" or "Buy this you really need it". I am always amazed at home many people have George Foreman grills :)

i think i'm almost ready to leave. shoot me another email quiet at ultra-sites.com

cheers

David I want a copy of that book, lol.
It will be more of a handbook for those with money though, and just a fantasy for most of us.

But I do know a guy that is from the Ukraine and although he doesn't have much money, he manages to travel on average once two to three months. He usually goes to Europe. He's told me stories about what it was like to live there. All the countries are attached so it's easy to visit Germany and then France and then the Netherlands so on.

He has his base here in North America. He's in his late 40's early 50's and married. He has no kids. When he travels he usually goes alone, but sometimes they spend time away together. I've never known anybody like him before. Their marriage is perfect. When he travels alone, he lives a bit of the lifestyle you've described here with women and clubs and fun.

I envy him in that respect. He's seen places most won't because most people never travel and somehow (I don't know how) don't feel the need to go beyond the city, state, or country they're from. I'm still debating whether that's the life for me. But I know for him it's perfect.

A old comedian once said, he spent 80% of his life on women and booze. He said he wasted the other 20% of his life. LOL. Now that's a simplistic and coarse way to describe your lifestyle. Clearly there is much more to it than that as you've pointed out in your posts in this thread.

Anyway, cheers to you for doing what you love and for being able to find what that is. It seems many people never do find what makes them happy. Keeping things simple and always novel is definitely attractive.

Davidd, I wish I read your posts 4 years ago.

I would've crossed that financial mark sooner if I hadn't kept re-investing the money into domain names. Every time I closed a deal, I poured the money back into more domains. I did it again this month. Bought a domain (melon.com) for low-5 (early 2004) and flipped for 6figs two weeks ago, then plowed the money right back into more domains. LOL, against the advice of family & friends, but the domain industry has been lucrative for me... and obviously benefited my family & friends.

But after reading this thread I wish I could go back in time... too many "anchors" now.

Too many possessions that have ended up owning me. Not materialistic things, almost all business-related. I built a huge workstation (command center) with 6+ TV's (all tuned to news/markets), 10+ PCs, two 42" monitors, 10 mobile phone lines, etc... thought I needed it all to maintain and grow my empire and stay connected with the world. But now, looking back, perhaps a laptop + worldphone + travelling the world may have sufficed. I started to realize I don't need it all after I bought a new house, had to "deconstruct" the command center and still waiting to put it back together... because my laptop is all I need right now. LOL. But davidd's lifestyle may be more fitting for my mindset than my current one. I drive a simple domestic car, though I long for something more. Every time I decide to buy a supercar, I think about how many domains I could buy or friends/family I could help... and end up doing that instead (unless they start selling the ZONDA in the US). But this thread has provided excellent insight. I've always felt like something was missing. I love what I do for a living, but the business I own doesn't need to own me. Time to get rid of a few anchors.

but I'm sure the domain game will pull me back in. there's always something new to look forward to:
i.e.
Yesterday, a domain portfolio sold for $164,000,000 ($155M cash)

but I still wish I read this thread 4 years ago...

davidd, when you're finished with your book, I'll buy a copy. You should call it "Life Without Anchors". Hurry up and finish writing it. :)

(back to the domain mines..)

Best thread ever.

Some really interesting philosophies and life experiences in this thread.

Davidd I will tell my fiance to pick you up a nice warm old navy pullover next time I give her some spending money! LOL!

Different strokes for different folks :winkwink:

DH

Awsome thread.

I feel like a millionare! :1orglaugh

I am happy :)
oh oh

and I love myself...

oh oh

and I have a small penis.

KRL has the best post in this thread...

when did you reach your first million?



when I turn 34 years old. I'm 31 now



Lar's made $60,000 yesterday.


WORD

I *almost* made it at 20... then those bastards changed our currency to EURO, and I had to get 6 times more than I thought.. It sucked. :(
I wish I lived in italy or turkey (when they didn't have euro). Easy to be millionaire.

ill let u know when i get there =(

i doubt i'll ever make a million and thats fine with me.

Before 25................ My goal was by 30, but I have always surpassed my financial goals.

I'm thinking sometime around the year 2023... I should be 51 years old then. I'll be sure to let you know how it works out. :1orglaugh

But my life so far has been fulfilled with more riches and happiness than any amount of money could ever bring me. I'm one of those guys that's along for the ride... and I enjoy every minute of it. :pimp

Either 19 or 20 cant remember.

22
and it was more than $5mil not 1

Should be around the year 2020
