When someone says "money is no object" they usually mean "money is no object for you". In other words, you have so much money, you can do anything you want that would cost money.
If OP meant that money is literally not an object - as though it doesn't exist... Well that would change things quite a bit, wouldn't it? However the OP didn't have the video in it at first, so those who read the text and didn't see the video, answered appropriately.
So no, timpo isn't actually smart, he just read the thread later than everyone else. Crisis averted
As for what I think should happen if money didn't exist... go watch Star Trek
SP is correct, there wasn't a video at first so lots of people responded correct to the question.
In all reality if money didn't exist there would be some other kind of currency that we don't realize yet. Would the world be a better place? I can't see it someone always comes alone to fuck some thing up but at least with having money it gives us a choice of the freedom to do what you want no matter how good or bad you think it is.
Came in here to see ulic's post, left disappointed. Posted via RS Mobile
ok let me clarify:
Pure thinking is the thing people have least time to do... Perhaps the only time one really does this is when they're in their death beds. Then it's forced. It's not pure anymore.
Thinking and looking at the mind inward, is more rewarding than anything the physical world can offer. The mind can offer all of that plus more. But only if you remove all of the worldly distractions. Concerns. Worries. Experiences. Sensory indulgences. Those would all be removed with money... As long as you're not a sucker for "stuff"... which gathering from the replies in this thread... everyone is lol.
like asahai69 said, unless you're already a monk, then you're already on the right path... i highly doubt any monks use revscene hah.
Pure awareness, floating through the vast conscious, is the ultimate state of being. Complete separation to this hellish recursive world.
Lambo's and doing blow off hookers ass's are only temporary. They'd only be fun if you could be in that state forever... which obviously you cannot. You'll run out of money, your health will deteriorate, you'll get old, you'll be left with nothing but memories of the past. yearning for more. never fully satisfied... if only i were younger... if only i had more time to experience more, if only i had more money, if only i had... clinging on to the past.
Don't get me wrong, if money wasn't an object, i'd do all those things just because I'm human and i'll fall into the evil pits of desire and lust... but I already know in the end, that stuff is all just... it's nothing. It's not an ends to anything. or a path to anything. They're just like... neon tennis balls are to dogs.
just chasing some bullshit for no reason other than the fact that one cannot control themselves. There's an impulsive need to chase stupid things, stuff, experiences...
It's something the monks figured out thousands of years ago. Of course it is Gnostic knowledge... meaning only a few have access/understand it.
Nirvana cannot be understood by those who have not achieved it. But to anyone that's been in a state of true contentment, even if it was just for a moment, you have already had a glimpse of nirvana. You don't have to understand it to know it is better than anything anything else can offer.
On my time on this planet, I've come to understand everything opposite of nirvana. "stuff". "experiences". bitches and blow. It's all the same. There's much more out there, and you don't have to look outward for it. The answer is all inside you.
Not a satisfying answer to those who are still clinging to the physical world. I know. But answers are not supposed to be satisfying. They're supposed to answer.
After paying off whoever to experience all the things I cannot stop myself from indulging in... I would sit there, and think. and think. and think. and think until my brain is incapable of thinking. Until I use up all my thinking juice. Knowledge, wisdom, is the ultimate power in the universe... you can't unlock knowledge or wisdom without some very deep and prolonged thinking.

Dude, probably do the same thing that everyone else talks about.
Oh, and guys? If you really wanted to snort coke off a hookers ass, you don't need to be a millionaire...like a 500-aire. $100 for the ass, and $400 for the white stuff to snort.
I duno what kinda coke you do... or the kind of hookers you'd look into.
but i would have those numbers switched around.
I'd rather spend 400 bux on the hooker and 100 on the blow lol.
I'd rather have less blow and a hottie, than a lot of blow and a kingsway walker lol!!!
If money was no object, my shopping and donation list would be seriously long:
-Buy over 300 plus exotic cars, luxury cars, limited edition cars to put into multiple gigantic garages.
-Build my own private race track.
-Buy a couple multi-million dollar mansions around the world.
-Buy a couple of private jets, Boeing Dreamliner and Airbus, for the nice ride to my homes around the world.
-Buy the biggest yachts in the world to explore countries.
-Hire the best bodyguards and security team to protect me, my family, and my money!!
-Hire the best financial managers to help me invest me money and make it grow. Make it rain baby!
-Hire the best lawyers money can buy to protect me from any lawsuits from scammers, or potential business rivals.
-install the most advanced and reliable security systems in all my mansions, jets, yachts, and cars to protect me and my family.
-Hire the best personal trainers, full time, and my personal chef to keep me in the best shape and optimum health, 24/7.
-No entourage of "friends". Only family rolls with me.
-Donate over $2 billion dollars to "legit" charities that actually help people. Scammers need not apply.
Drive across Canada including all the territories. Drive from the U.K. to my family village in Punjab India. Just show up there one day unannounced. Build a race track and a drag strip and gift it to RS to be run as a non profit.
Edit: also solve world hunger.

Moneys no object ever? If so why buy fuckin property to hold me back from havin a good time or goin places. Sounds like a burden to me. I'd spend my days at barret jackson buyin mint classics trashin on em for a week and re auctioning them the following week and travel the world the ocean the universe what ever I fuckin feel like. I might build a shop just to build dream cars for me and fam or friends and bag on them too. Give some famlies on tough times mini vans and bottomless grocery cards and fuel cards etc

This is actually true story...
If you ask doctors or nurse, when people die, they would not likely say "I should have made more money" or "I wanted to buy Lamborghini Aventador and Pagani Zonda". Instead, these are some of the common things what people would talk about when they're about to die...
1. Not caring about your own health
2. Not living true to yourself
3. Spent your whole life working, had no personal time
4. Didn't get married or have kids
5. Didn't quit smoking & drinking
6. Never travelled or went to the place you wanted to go
7. Never done what you wanted to do
8. Didn't leave any 'evidence' that you lived in this world
9. Didn't eat what you wanted to eat
10. Didn't say 'thank you' or 'i love you' to people you care about
and suddenly you will realize everything is too late and there's no tomorrow...you only live once
I went up to a cute chick and asked her if she'd let me take a photo of her for $30 she slapped me, she said to me that "I AIN'T A WHORE!"
But other than that I have seen every car on display in DTP just by cruising about in Richmond, thank you very much for collecting them together and get someone to sing a cover for "fuck you".
OH FUCK YOU OH OH OOOOH~

If money was no object.. I'd be free and therefore I would travel the world. I wouldn't own a home or a car or a plane. It would be me a backpack and the money. Spending it on others is much more satisfying for me than spending it on myself. (which is probably why i'm always broke as fuck).

buy the newest hypercars LaFerrari, Mclaren P1, Porsche 918, Pagani Hurraya, Agera R
enter various racing events around the world
and just DRIVE THE CRAP OUTTA each one
then invade some south asian state and retire as a war lord.
always wanted to study physics and be a theoretical physicists...(things like quantum mechanics and strings theory fascinate me)
also wanted to be a musicians....pianist or a violinist
And if money is really no object...I would build schools and shelter and farms for 3rd world countries and give everyone clean food and clean water...
but obviously that's not how money and how the world works... (unlimited money does not mean unlimited power or unlimited resources...money is just a piece of paper with an artificial value we place on it)
