What useful thing would you buy if you were rich?

[Forentive]

I’d love a housekeeper to keep on top of everything, laundry, making sure everything’s clean etc. I absolutely hate the relentless pressure of cleaning but my OCD makes sure I do it!

A PA to deal with all post, e-mails and any other correspondence.
I am happy to cook, clean, do washing and ironing, but the mountain of post that hits me is overwhelming.

That’s not much for being at the beck and call of the boss 24/7

a driver to take me across the country

Pay off the kids student loans and buy them a property each. The weight off my mind would be immense.

When my niece was about 7, she told me she'd buy a slave when she was rich. After a bit of careful questioning it turned out she meant she'd hire a cleaner !

A starlift, an adjustable bed, and a reclining arm chair.

Electricity to my outbuilding so I could have a bigger freezer.

A cleaner twice a week.

Eta: maybe a downstairs toilet.

A brand new car that I could change every couple of years. I've never owned one. All my cars have been at least 12 years old and I'm now in my late sixties. For clarity I'd like one for peace of mind (ie starting in the morning), not for vanity!

A studio flat in Covent Garden or Soho. I love living where I do (West Country) but I also love theatre and opera and art. If I had my fantasy flat I’d be able to spend time in London doing all of these and the walk back to my little flat..

A live in Hair dresser. So I might look normal in the mornings

Ooh I like this. Can just imagine it.

Try a real silk pillowcase! They help.

A school, complete with staff, maybe also a hospital, dentist and kitten.

I'd expand the house to have a library and craft room.
With a private key only I have 😁

Racehorse

Family driver. Kids are teens so I'd be happy for them to travel solo with my driver and the taxi years would be over.

I do quite fancy a smart bath though, even though I never have baths.

I’d pay for a private psychiatrist assessment and inpatient stay to get better.

Also a robot vaccuum cleaner.

Just like most DHs have (just being light-hearted).

Yes I would like a housekeeper (if it includes cleaning and the boring bits of the gardening plus laundry)

You need two kittens.

If I won the lottery, I would have the lot, a gardener, cleaner, decorator, car valeter, handyman, window cleaner - yes it would be fabulous. But best crack on, as the reality is very different!

A yacht, which is would live on

Builder
Portfolio manager
Nanny

Helicopter to go everywhere. Waitrose, postbox. Everywhere. I would just hop in and crank her up. If I couldn't land in Waitrose carpark I would just hover over the door and lower a wicker basket and get one of the staff to go round as I used my loud hailer to say what I wanted and get them to do the Scanpaygo machine, load my basket and winch it up. I would then fly off by doing an aggressive turn like on Airwolf and fly home before anything melted that needed the freezer quickly.

Household staff and a personal masseur!

An extension, a ground/air source heat pump, solar panels, green roof, passive house, electric bike

A handyman for all DIY jobs that I don't feel confident to tackle
A gardener who can create a lovely garden but also teach me how to grow sustainably.

A decent car (nothing fancy but a good boot and more leg space and reliable)
A personal trainer and the childcare to be able to attend it.

A home of my own.
