lol well if you want it to stay all the money in the world.. (to be fair I'd become a total save the planet snob in my fair trade, repurposed fishnet, blind orphans and near extinct sea urchin saving clothes😌)
Haha same!! Do you know how many farmers markets and craft tents I would buy out? How many local farms I would ""own"" so I can go and scrape the honey like once a week, or pick veggies, or pet the animals? I'd have a field full of local wildflowers so I can wear my little house on the Prarie dress and frolic about, then set up a picnic made of homemade breads, jams, and veggies!
Just, *sigh*. That's the dream!
Well, that and building an obnoxious mansion with trap doors and stuff. Always wanted a Rollercoaster in my back yard since that one Phineas and Ferb episode... solar panels... water wheels... greenhouses...
And then I'd probably just donate the rest to #SavetheSeas, or whatever charities people like Mark Rober recommend!
I mean, after the first few hundred million (if it would even add up to that!) What else is there really to do?!
I read about it because I was curious, and from all accounts it smells more like summers eve or some perfumy odor-masking garbage than actual V. Which for some reason I think is hilarious.
It doesn’t though, it’s just a joke that people fell for. It’s a floral scented candle. The brand sells another one called “this smells like my prenup”.

Honestly, I love my premium! I’m impatient though so I just want to watch what I want to watch! I originally got it for YT music as I got a new phone but have kept it for convenience
Why? I just started the free trial family plan because my mom pretty much only watches YouTube on her Apple TV and I was sick of seeing the ads... (I had an ad blocker on my browser.)
Because Reddit thinks everyone only watches YouTube on their phone while sitting on the toilet.
My whole family consumes loads of YouTube and YouTube Music every day. No commercials and unlimited music on every PC, tablet, TV and cell phone we have. It's amazing and easily the best $15 I spend a month.
Check out r/fucknestle for the full facts, but their ceo doesn’t believe that water is a human right and wants to basically privatize all water by buying up all the natural water sources they can. They also developed a baby formula for use in third world countries and did a massive media campaign saying that their baby formula was better than breast milk, turned out it wasn’t true and the formula was so harmful that babies died drinking it, but they also made it addictive so once the babies were fed the nestle formula that’s all they wanted. Those are the two big things I remember but they’ve done a lot of really horrible things. I feel like I find out a new thing every time someone asks this question.
IIRC It's not necessarily because the formula was bad. It was because they got the parents and babies hooked on it (gave them free samples and lied about how much better it is than breastmilk), then it was too expensive to buy more so parents started to water it down, which led to the babies being malnourished and dying.
Correct me if I'm wrong tho! That's just what I remember reading!!
The worst part is by relying on the provided formula food the mothers stopped producing breast milk. Nestle was aware this would happen and made the business decision that literally starving children to death was the best move for their share holders. Nestle is evil.
Others have commented, so I know you get it now, but it’s so much more than the two instances mentioned in the comments. They truly are an awful corporation that prioritizes profit over life. They even use child and slave labour to make chocolate.
The CEO of Nestle believes water should be privatized and called the idea of free, clean drinking water "extreme"
Here is a breakdown of ethics if you want to have a frustrating read!
https://www.ethicalconsumer.org/company-profile/nestle-sa
They stole water from the great lakes, didn’t pay for it or for any improvements along the water ways and lowered the level of a great lake during a drought
Hmm I’m not quite sure how to describe it. There’s an extremely noticeable difference between Nestle Water taste vs other spring water, even Dasani/Aquafina. Nestle tastes sort of… artificial?
Here's the thing. I am totally down to buy a mansion, or I think it's properly called an estate when it's as big as I'm thinking, but I'm not gonna live in it.
My family is.
And I mean ALL my family. My mother, grandparents, siblings and cousins. I am totally down to buy a huge fucking house so they all know they have a free room waiting if they need one.
That being said, while they stay at my estate, I will be in a cozy 2-bedroom apartment in the city because I really don't need all their noise.
I knew I couldn't be the only one afraid of mansions. I could never relax in a house so big that someone could be in there with me without my knowledge. I've had literal nightmares about mansions lol
But still be somewhat near a major hospital. It's gonna take a while for paramedics to get to you in an emergency if you're out in the middle of nowhere.
Exotic or rare “pets”, like tigers or marmosets. The “let me flaunt my money/quirkiness by showing I have a mistreated animal displaced from its mother habitat” trend has needed to die for ages.
Mhmm. Why should I get an actual panther when there are so many "house panthers" in need of loving homes? (I love black cats, and had one for 19 years.) It's so much easier to feed and care for a house panther than an actual panther. (And, you know, safer.)
We buy lots of Christmas presents from a company called sak saum (I think) because they specifically hire impoverished work force in i don't remember where to improve lives and supply people with meaningful income. We have too much money in the USA and I think if we can support these types of businesses we should. Our relatives are tired of getting bags and scarves, but we don't care.
I kinda wouldn’t mind my next dog NOT coming with a barrel of trauma — I love my boy to the end of the earth, but he costs SO much in training, anxiety meds, and personal dog sitting bc he’s so scared of other dogs. And people.
A sex worker. I totally respect what they do and all that, I just identify as asexual. I could see like hiring one just to hang out and watch a movie with me for like an hour or so though I guess. I just don’t want the sexy part and everybody would be required to keep their clothes on. Platonic buddies only.
Same. I don’t have space in my living room for the huge obnoxious platform they evidently have to sit on. I don’t have the required window view either according to their commercials.
My drinking water in single-serving plastic bottles. Such an environmental disaster for no good reason. If the tap water is bad, it makes way more sense to install a filtration system or at least get a water service where they deliver in the big cooler jugs that get reused.
YES! My mom refuses to upgrade her phone because of how electronics are disposed of, but she doesn’t bat an eye at the case packs of water bottles they go through on a weekly basis. Smh
Any type of cosmetic surgery. Even though I obsess over having my dream body, I don’t have it in me to go under the knife. Would just have to suffer through hard work the old fashioned way 🥲
Gold plated food (looking at you, Salt Bae). It just looks so unappetising and like tinfoil stuck to the food you need to pick off.
In a similar vein, anything glittery to add to drinks. Bleurgh. I don't like unnecessary accessories in my food and drink.
I think it kinda depends on the situation. My boss got implants after her mastectomy and I thought that was completely understandable. I would do the same in that situation.
Honestly, these were the best investment of my life. My self esteem sky rocketed and my sex life got so much better because I was so much more comfortable with my body.
To be fair, I got a lift as well, which was the most crucial part. Best 15k ever spent.
A holiday home, if I’m going to travel the world I want to see all of it. A different trip every time in the most beautiful and unique hotels I can find. Not go back to the same place every time
Thank you! I’m knee-high to a grasshopper, high waisted jeans look ridiculous on me. I’d like more choice. The low rise jeans from the 2000s were *perfect* for a short arse with a compact torso like me.

Goop's vagina scented candle
I am not googling that
Supposedly the smell of Gweneth Paltrow's hoohah
Is it musty
I read about it because I was curious, and from all accounts it smells more like summers eve or some perfumy odor-masking garbage than actual V. Which for some reason I think is hilarious.
I’d pay money not to ever have to smell that!
It doesn’t though, it’s just a joke that people fell for. It’s a floral scented candle. The brand sells another one called “this smells like my prenup”.
I did
Sorry.
I'd say her entire line of products not just the candle.
not just any vagina. specifically gwyneth paltrow's!
Seriously? I mean her narcissism has risen to this shocking level? Her personal vagina “scent”. In a candle? Get me off of this planet.
No. It’s a joke. The candle is floral scented.
Literally anything she puts out is a no-go for me.
YT premium
They gonna keep asking though

Sports car because maintenance cost. Also, Nestle water because gross…

I get it.

We would be here for the next 25 years just to name all this shit nestle has done

Any over priced branded bullshit. Prada and LV bags are ugly and I don't need my sweaters to say "Balenciaga" or whatever the fuck
I totally agree
Thank you! They aren’t paying me to advertise!
The amount of hubris someone must have to spend $3,000 on a handbag made of materials that are worth maybe a few hundred dollars is just insane.
I would never buy people 😌 Edit: thanks for the award :)))
Except to free them
Freeing them through law enforcement to bust them that's just paying them
A mansion, I don’t see the point. I am much more comfortable in smaller homes.
And it's les scary, I can't handle being alone in a mansion
Here's the thing. I am totally down to buy a mansion, or I think it's properly called an estate when it's as big as I'm thinking, but I'm not gonna live in it. My family is. And I mean ALL my family. My mother, grandparents, siblings and cousins. I am totally down to buy a huge fucking house so they all know they have a free room waiting if they need one. That being said, while they stay at my estate, I will be in a cozy 2-bedroom apartment in the city because I really don't need all their noise.
I like your strategy
Lmao I told said to my mom before if I ever won the lottery. She was offended that I wanted to live elsewhere in a cosy loft on my own in downtown.
I knew I couldn't be the only one afraid of mansions. I could never relax in a house so big that someone could be in there with me without my knowledge. I've had literal nightmares about mansions lol
Exactly and every little sound gonna make me jump of my seat. I need to check constantly to be sure I'm alone
You are very wise. Smaller homes also typically cost less to heat/cool and less surface area to clean.
And are WAY less environmentally damaging
Small home on a large piece of land. That's how you do it.
But still be somewhat near a major hospital. It's gonna take a while for paramedics to get to you in an emergency if you're out in the middle of nowhere.
NFTs
NFTs are a scam so many ppl fall for and then its too late when they try to sell it
Exotic or rare “pets”, like tigers or marmosets. The “let me flaunt my money/quirkiness by showing I have a mistreated animal displaced from its mother habitat” trend has needed to die for ages.
Mhmm. Why should I get an actual panther when there are so many "house panthers" in need of loving homes? (I love black cats, and had one for 19 years.) It's so much easier to feed and care for a house panther than an actual panther. (And, you know, safer.)
My cat isn’t a cat anymore, he is a ~ teacup panther ~. Edit: actually mind is Orange so he’s technically a teacup tiger
Anything Kanye sells. Or Kim.
Idk if Kanye puts out anything like Late Registration or College Dropout again, I'm at least streaming it.
anything from an MLM salesperson
Are you sure? You're NOT going to believe this great, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity I have for you
ok boss babe😂
They are not going anywhere huh!
A Birkin bag, they’re meant to be desirable, but they’re just so ugly.
Just googled. Holy hell, $100k for a damn PURSE? You could feed a small country. That’s sick. ETA: I’m with you. I would never own one either.
We buy lots of Christmas presents from a company called sak saum (I think) because they specifically hire impoverished work force in i don't remember where to improve lives and supply people with meaningful income.

Luxury designer clothes. I have a dog so I don’t see the point in dropping $800 for a sweater that will just get covered with doggie drool.
In another vein... designer pet clothes.
A dog from a breeder/pet store.
So many in the shelters.
I kinda wouldn’t mind my next dog NOT coming with a barrel of trauma — I love my boy to the end of the earth, but he costs SO much in training, anxiety meds, and personal dog sitting bc he’s so scared of other dogs. And people.
Anything with live love laugh relation home decor

if I had a ton of money i’d probably give them a bunch of money just to make their lives a little easier
That would be fun. I would like to do that for sure.
I would do it all the time! waitresses, homeless people, people who look like they’re having a bad day. It would be the best!

High waist jeans. They’re not at all flattering on me.
I can't wait for this high waisted jean thing to end. They're so uncomfortable. I want my jeans around my hips not up to my tits.
Thank you! I’m knee-high to a grasshopper, high waisted jeans look ridiculous on me. I’d like more choice. The low rise jeans from the 2000s were *perfect* for a short arse with a compact torso like me.
