Kind of like "Would You Rather" only rather specific. Which luxury scenario would you choose if you could only have one of these ways to go.

    As long as I have a guitar and a few harmonicas I can get by on music, and I only need 1 book, the Norton Anthology of English Literature volume 2, and volume 1 as well if I can have 2 books.

    Give me fresh organic fruit and vegetables all year round, wholesome meat and cheese, and chocolate, chocolate, chocolate.

    DIY and eat to your hearts content. I can see some advantages there, for sure. I would miss the music diversity but if I had to, I suppose I could learn enough new things on guitar to entertain. But my greatest appetite is for music and books!

    I like the fancy house. Never know what the future holds. Something horrible happens, u can sell the house to help...I guess unless I was loaded with PJ vinyl. Then I could sell that off to you nuts for primo cash. :sunglasses:

    Easiest poll ever, because it's not too terribly far from my reality. :lol:

    That food thing scares me though. Baked beans and mashed potatoes will get old quick
    The worst of times..they don't phase me,
    even if I look and act really crazy.

    I'm not big on possessions. Quality over quantity. I am definitely a foodie, though!

    Yes, food is great! I love all kinds of food. But oddly enough, I don't mind basic and simple food. As much as I love a good, tasty, unusual meal, when the choice is more time spent cooking or more for books/music, I'm doing the latter. When my wife met me I basically ate the same things everyday. She couldn't believe it. I told her, "But look, it's quick, easy, fast and fairly healthy- no fast food, not to much junk food." Left to my own devices, that's probably all we would eat all the time.

  • I can't choose between the books, records and etc. and the food. Love a good meal and a good book while listening to music. Not possible for me to separate them.
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    Food, I'm a eat to live person
    Home, not a fan of maintenance and upkeep, which only gets worse as the house gets larger.
    Music books etc.- there's streaming available for what you can't have.

    Just leaves clothes and shoes by process of elimination.

    I'm okay with basic food as long as it's organic. I avoid regular stores for Sprouts and Trader Joe's.

    If I could have any amount of food I wanted, I would start a farmers market with my basic folding table and build an EMPIRE where I could then buy my fancy house with it's own library and recording studio and in-house tailor.

    I WOULD RULE THE WORLD!
