DAY 382, SUNDAY, OCTOBER

S: Give me one of those.

L: Which one?

H: The cake thingies obviously.

S: Thank you. At least someone knows me.

K: I know you two.

S: Oh, yeah? Prove it.

R: How do you want to prove that, K?

K: I know you do something with law.

L: I think everyone here knows that.

H: We do.

S: That won't pass, sorry. Here's a question for you. If you get this right, you truly know me.

K: Alright, alright. Hit me.

S: What would I do with an income of one million a year? Obviously, I wouldn't have to work for it.

L: Oh, that sounds nice.

H: Yeah, can you share that with me?

S: Depends on what K thinks I'm gonna do with it.

K: I think... you would give all of it to charity. And if you think H is a charity then I suppose they'll get some of the money too.

R: Is the answer correct?

S: I'm afraid not.

K: What? You wouldn't be a good and humble person?

S: Definitely not.

L: Would anyone?

H: I doubt it.

K: What else would you do? If it's not charity?

S: I would most likely hire people for everything. A chef. Someone who walks my dog. Someone who does the groceries. Someone who cleans the house. I could go on but you see the plan forming, right?

R: That's sounds really nice.

S: That's what I mean. You gotta think of yourself first, then others.

L: Isn't that regarding a traffic accident?

S: It's applicable to multiple situations.

K: Well it's not what I would do with it.

R: Which is what?

K: I would buy myself a mansion. And every year, with every new million that comes in, I will expand it.

S: And then in ten years you have a house the size of a small city. Then what?

K: That's a future-me thing to decide.

L: Sure, why not.

K: How about you then, L?

L: A world trip every year. Hands down. Non-negotiable. It's happening.

S: Really?

L: Yep. I'll be fine traveling the world, eating different foods, perhaps I'll pick up a language or two.

R: How adventurous of you.

L: Only a little bit. Obviously, with the amount of money I'll have, I won't be hitchhiking and stuff. I will be traveling in comfort.

K: Of course. You have the money for it.

L: Exactly. How about you, H?

H: I'd probably save it.

K: Why? That's so boring.

H: Fine, I'll buy new shoes and then save it. Who know, maybe in three years I'll get some weird disease and I need millions for medication and treatment.
