I have higher than average choco-intelligence, but that doesn't mean I don't still like the taste of m&ms.
LOL it's still chocolate. How bad could it be?
Say you win the lottery - what is your dream? Do you move, if so, how far? Do you support your friends and family, or not, and realize how much tension that causes? Do you eat in the same restaurants? More often? Do you watch different movies - or upscale to plays and performances? Do you get all your clothes custom-sewn? What clubs do you go to now? What car do you drive, and where can you park it?
I wouldn't move far because I would still want to be near my family and friends. I may not live here because it has a lot of issues that make it workable but not ideal. A similarly-sized place with more privacy and harmony with the outdoors would work. I would like a deep front porch with shuttered french doors and a really private back yard, possibly but not necessarily with a pool. I'd be happy with a bunch of plants and a patio with a fountain.
I'd probably eat in restaurants less often. If I was able to do the work I enjoyed at the pace that felt healthy, I'd also be able to buy and cook food more responsibly.
I don't go to movies now... probably wouldn't start. Maybe more concerts, etc., but probably not expensive headliner ones. Most of the music I like is pretty obscure.
Custom-made clothes? Bah. I'd hire a very buff and well-qualified personal trainer and train with him every day, and then wear hardly any!
Cars? IDK. I do like the Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, but it's insanely inefficient. Maybe when the electric version comes out.
As I get older I am less and less tempted by things... which is a relief because in my 20's I felt like my appetites kept up with my rising income. I think if I had money to burn I'd use most of it trying to make other people's lives easier.
