I beginning to gain more money, but I'm not that materialistic?

Question

I've been doing well at trading/investing in stocks/derivatives/forex (currency) and have been able to acquire a nice income and soon I plan to get involved in working with a hedge fund.

My one question is that, with all this money, what should I do? I'm not that materialistic?

Answer 1

What i like about having money is the ability to leave an extra large tip to an overworked waitress, hire the neighbor that couldn't find a job so he wouldn't loose his home (I now have enough firewood to heat a small city) and many other things. Money gives you the ability to do acts of kindness- not handouts- those only make you feel powerfull, but acts thatpreserve thedignity of the person. Oh, I also support 5 AIDS babies in Africa. What to do with the money? Next time you feel the call, help.

Answer 2

Put some aside in safe investments so you won't have to worry about money. Then do whatever hobbies you like, massage is a good choice I think. I would get a good massage every day if I had tons of money. And good food, a few vacations, cheap ones. Then I would buy up land and make a few parks for people to use. I would start an axe museum and maybe a few other museums, maybe a school or two. Maybe in Africa. I would do feasts in poor places for poor folks, like once a month barbecue or something.

Answer 3

Tell me the best reply to this question, having such an income as well as your planned future fund and being the way you are regarding non materialistic and expecting more gains. If i was you I'd stock up on painkillers and hope for the best when your returns come as your head will hopefully be buzzing madly, with so much money and not knowing what to do with it

Answer 4

I admire your morals. I however have none and am very materialistic. Would it ease your conscience to credit my paypal account? I am open to other suggestions.

Answer 5

Find a tax-advantageous way to give to charity.
