Establish a free Christian classical education school for poor urban kids - yes I'm a huge fan of Sayers' Lost Tools of Learning.

If either of us ever come into money would you like to work together?

...Seriously! Our ideas combined is exactly what I dream of.
 
Josh, have you ever been there? I thought the same thing until I went. It is a very cool place. If you took your little girl you would LOVE it.

I've been to its big brother several times, and each time it's gotten less and less appealling - now to the point it'd probably make me sick to go back. I hate the materialism that I still fight against, just from being raised in a fairly well-to-do stereotypical American family, and stuff like Disney World of such tawdry entertainment frankly bores me now.
 
lol, yes it's hot so if you ever go o in the winter time (I went in August!) I told everyone I was going to hate it, it was for children, amusement parks bore me because I grew up in one (Hershey Park), etc. and everyone told me I was looney and that I would see how wrong I was.

I have to admit, everyone was right.
 
I would go back to school and get a PhD in physics and mathematics. Then we (my wife and I) would move to Montana or Wyoming where I would teach at some small college in a remote area while she runs the buffalo farm.
 
Become an editor of a magazine and start publishing real horror fiction rather than the tripe that they're publishing in these our hateful modern times.
 
I'd move back to the farm where my Mom and Dad still live. I'd probably build another home there. I'd pray that God would call me as pastor of the little Baptist church in which I grew up. I'd seek to be the faithful pastor of that church for the rest of my life.

And I'd read a lot. :book2:

I'd want to include kids with learning disabilities.
My two oldest are in classical Christian school (but it's of an arminian bent) my third child had learning disabilities that most classical schools are not equipped to handle.
I'd love to have enough money to start a classical Christian school that is Calvinistic & doesn't turn away any child whether it be poor or handicapped in any way.

Come to think of it if I had a ton of money I'd like to build an entire town where everyone from church could live in & build business for everyone to work at so you could live go to church, go to work & go to school all within walking distance & you'd actually know your neighbors.
 
bookslover;

If you had both the money and the opportunity, what one thing would you do that you've always wanted to do?

I guess for me, it would be to travel the United States with my children, I'd take them to see Yellowstone, Yosemite, The Redwood forest, The Grand Canyon, The Grand Tetons, The Snake River, and all the various other places around the country.

I've been to most all those places and more...but have always wanted to take my kids...
