What would make your life perfect?

What do you desire the most?
Maybe there's one thing even that would make your life perfect?

Professional success/happiness?
The latest top of the range Merc/7 series even?
A stunning partner maybe?
To be smarter?
Or just good looks?
Better health?
More charisma/social influence?
To make a significant contribution to science maybe?
To be a nicer person?
Or would fame mean everything to you?

Just interested to hear what people desire the most.

Or do you actually have a perfect life.

Edit: The Yore Ma response wouldn't really be that funny here tbh.
/awaits the inevitable anyway.

Is this the ideal life thread? if so,

Money - not a huge amount. Enough to live comfortable, own a home and not have worries, so i can play starcraft all day
Good looks - we can always look a little better.. well i could
Nice partner - Not some stunning model. Just a nice looking girl with a cute smile who isn't a bitch.

I've no interest in top end cars or other material things.

Seriously though, don't they say after a certain amount of money, happiness doesn't really increase after that.
I mean, it's a dumb cliche, but there's some things money can't buy.

Nice. But how about a time machine, so you can bring Starcraft 2 to this time, and play it all day?

Actually, I want Bernard's Watch. Then I'd be happy.

Bullshit. With €130 million, not only do you never have to worry about cash again, but you can get all the shit money can't buy as well, a whole lot easier.

Unless the thing you're talking about that money can't buy is something valued at over €130 million. The of course you're right in which case I change my response to this thread to €130 billion.

To own the house I'm renting and have enough money to live a nice life here without working. Not multi-millions or anything excessive, just enough to own this out-right, run a decent car, bring my partner and kids on a couple of nice holidays a year.

What would make my life perfect is having Superpowers like being able to heal from any type of injury or control the elments such as fire, wind, water and earth and then use my powers to fight crime in Ireland and become a Vigilante and help people.

But failing that i think owning my own Nightclub with lot's of stuff such as a nudie bar for the fellas, a ladies lounge for the ladies and a lot of other things that you associate with clubs

YORE MA.

I'd really want a fleet of vehicles which have autopilot. A luxury yacht kitted out, a big jeep (BMW X5 Commercial maybe) and a 747. And a gun. Always wanted a gun. And a girl.

And YORE MA!!!!

Reading a book called the "Consolations of Philosophy" at the mo. Heres what we need to be happy it says:

- A hut
- Friends
- Freedom
- Oppourtunity for thought / time to yourself

It says if you have a huge Villa but no freedom, you probably wont be happy or if you have a Jag but are a billy no mates, then thats no good either.
