Wild Hobbies You Could Take Up If You Won The Lottery
So you won the lottery and you’re bored? After all, you’ve got so much money you have no idea what to do about it! Well let me help you with some awesome hobbies that’ll kill your time and make the spending worthwhile!
Motor Gliding
Everyone wants to experience flying, so how about now, since you have some money to spend? You live once, you might as well start motor gliding! So while anyone can go motor gliding, not everyone can afford it – if you’ve won the jackpot, it’s nothing to do with the cost. Cost? It’s nothing compared to how much you’ve won – just half a million dollars! Yeah baby!
Country Clubbing
As soon as you become rich, you need peace, why not consider country clubbing? This is definitely the most pampering hobby, but not everyone can afford it. Some clubs charge you around $250,000 for a yearly membership while others come up to $5,000 per year. Cost isn’t the issue – comfort and quality matters!
Horseback Riding
This is a hobby of many, many rich people with a cigar in their hand – of course they don’t ride horses themselves, they hire others because they can afford it! The buy and house horses for pleasure! How much does a good horse cost? Nothing much, around $100,000 approximately, but you can also find a decent horse at around $5,000. But why get a decent horse when you’re getting an excellent one?!
Plane Flying
Didn’t like anything above? Well, how about flying planes then? Remember, you must be really lucky to have won the jackpot and many people dream to fly, maybe this is why you won? No? An aviation school will cost you around $5,000 and a good plane about $100,000 – nothing you can’t afford! Now if you have too much money to spend, you can rent a plane for $80 an hour and fly on a regular basis! How’s that?
Big Game Hunting
Okay, maybe you’re a hunter at heart, how about this? This is a hobby that’ll make you spend cash like November rain, but if that’s what you’re looking for, be my guest! The thrill of a hunt just never gets old, although it will be expensive, you’ll end up with meat you can eat for days!
Antique Collection
Ah the good old days…you found a boot of Alexander the Great? Keeping it, will make it your next hobby! If you like collecting old stuff, maybe this is the hobby for you. You might think, “Ah, that’s not expensive!” oh, well you might be pleased to know that some Chinese carved lacquers were sold for approximately $600 a pair!! You can now safely pick your jaw, thank you.
World Travel
Gotta love packing your bags and travelling the world! Now who doesn’t love travelling? Almost everybody likes to travel, but some can’t afford it. You, on the other hand, have money power. I hear Mexico has great beaches so pack your bags and get started!
Poker and Blackjack
You’re a lottery player and poker or blackjack isn’t alien to you. Want to make some money while you slice the deck? Jump the felt and let the magic begin! PS. This can be very addictive!
Art Collection
Ah, are you the Shakespeare of Art? If so, you’ll absolutely love the hobby of art collection. There are different kinds of art, statues, sculptures and paintings that can cost anything from thousands to millions. But if you absolutely love art, cost shouldn’t be a problem!
Vintage Car Collection
If you don’t like today’s Ferrari and Bentley, maybe you’re a person with a strong love for historical cars. If you’ve got the money, flaunt it – buy vintage cars and make a collection, so what if each vintage car cost $30 million?
Exotic Pet Collection
Love visiting a zoo? Why not have one at home?! How about buying exotic animals and keeping them as pets? You can forget about robbery if you have a tiger guarding your front gate!
Ballroom Dancing
Like to dance? Well, how about taking some ballroom dance lessons? Whether you have a partner or not, dancing never hurts! You can waltz your way to the kitchen and waltz back with a bowl of exotic fruits! Imagine if you host a party, you’d definitely be the centre of attention! You can expect to spend around $10,000 per year, especially if you have to travel for competitions!
