Anything goes but I’m particularly interested in habits/practices/abillities that are real and otherwise can be developed with time and effort.

    A house in the woods.

    Speaking and reading all languages.

    Mastering all instruments.

    Learning the Cha-cha

    Proficiency in Ancient Greek, Avestan, Hittite, Old Church Slavonic, Sanskrit, and Tocharian A.

    Yes, this can be developed with enough time and effort, but I’m no elf to live a millennium and resources for those languages are awful to find.

      Wouldn’t Tocharian B be better?

      With A you could read mostly Buddhist scriptures that already exist in other languages, but with B you could read more historically-relevant secular works.

        Frankly I’d be a happy camper with either. My focus isn’t too much on what those languages were used for, but on Proto-Indo-European reconstruction; having more points of reference is always useful.

        (That said you’re right that Toch. B would be better - it seems to be more conservative. I thought that it was the opposite.)

    I guess I only need to get rid of my student debt, buy a house, a car that doesn’t break down, then I’ll buy some friends, I’ll buy a nice paying job with a career in my field of expertise and I’ll grab some charisma and friend making skills at the checkout

    I’d buy all my time and my kids’, so I could spend their entire childhood with them.

    Keeping living space clean at all times

    This is exactly what im struggling with.

    I’d buy houskeeping services for the next few decades. A person or company who tidies and cleans my space, does the laundry, the grocery shopping and cooks healthy non processed meals.

    Congress and the Supreme Court so I could once and for all make it so I’m the last one who ever does.

    Realistically, a house. However what I really want is to be able to speak every language. There is so much knowledge out there that I cant know without imperfect translation and even then it is still imperfect.
