What's your most important goal in life?

Ask most people this question and you'll usually get answers like "to be happy", "to have a big family" or " to do a job I can be proud of". Today I heard someone I work with say that the only thing they've ever wanted since they were little is to be a millionaire - they don't like the work we do but it's one of the best ways to earn good money . I've worked in the city for 6 years and apart from the Trotters that's honestly the first time I've heard someone actually give that as their reason for going on. Obviously most people would like it and if it happens one way or another in the course of their life then they certainly won't be complaining... but to have that goal as your be-all and end-all and be prepared to put up with all kinds of misery to get there just doesn't seem like much of an existence. Fair play if he achieves it... but what then?

What about you? What's your reason to keep going, and what's the strangest you've heard?

Do you know what people are mostly? Bastards! Bastard-coated bastards with bastard filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive bubble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine.
I'm fairly sure if they took porn off the internet, there'd only be one website left, and it'd be called "Bring back the porn!"

My goal since I was a child was to get married and have children. I've achieved it...now I just need to keep it going and continue to enjoy it

At the moment, to get my commercial pilot's licence, but goals change and move, so I won't stop when I've got it, my goal will just shift to 'getting a job with an airline' or something similar, and then I'll be back to the more normal, ensure that I have a comfortable retirement type goals.

And of course to sail around the world when I do retire

The tantric hands-free orgasm.
That would be so ubercool.

And it would make transatlantic flights a bloody laugh.

What I want to be able to do is sit in a comfortable chair in a comfortable room with my feet up, in silence, and be sat there without any worries - about money, about my health, about whats going to happen - in fact just sat, without a thought on my mind.

Mr. Tibbs hits the nail on the head when it comes to what happens if you help the environment.

Doing it by remote control might be easier to master though

I was tempted by some remote-control love eggs a few weeks back. Excellent fun at dinner parties; "Excuse me dear, could you pass the sssssssssssssssssssaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhlt"

Can you make a woman orgasm using only 2 spoons of yogurt and 4 fingers of one hand carassing her stomach?

If not then its a good starting point towards the hands free orgasm. HTH

Didn't Arnold Swarzchewhatever make a list like that as a kid?

1) Be a millionaire
2) Be a film star
3) Be The Presonator of the US

Sommat like that anyway. He was a millionaire before becoming a film star anyway. Scary, scary man if it's true.

Goal oriented people eh? Sometimes I think that's all it takes. It would certainly explain why I'm sat here on my arse doing nothing, I have no long term goals.

Being a millionaire though, what a tosser. I know several multi millionaires and out of them one was a miserable git when poor and just as miserable and stingy when loaded, the other was a top bloke all his life and would have been happy either way, so I guess it doens't matter.

Is this millionaire guy a nice person?

Mine is to own a garage like the one shown in MCN this week. But without a single bloody Ducati or Harley in it......oh maybe a 1098 then.
