You are welcome.
[EDIT]
Wow! Just realized someone else[^] is also trying to make this world a better place to live!

Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!

I'll give you the same answer [^]
And what if that "somehow" was not repeatable?
It's an OO world.
public class SanderRossel : Lazy<Person>
{
public void DoWork()
{
throw new NotSupportedException();
}
}

I've got lots of plans for when I'm incredibly wealthy, I reckon I need about £100 million if any wants to help me out.
For that amount I'd do something for all my family, all my friends, a few choice colleagues I like a lot who serious life long health issues, the village I live in, the city I grew up in, things that would help people out, make their lives more fun, try to build a better community.
For myself I'd buy a number of extravagant houses in various parts of the UK, pay for my daughter to go to a good school near here, and travel a lot, everywhere, experience as much as possible, see as much as possible.
I undoubtedly would not write another line of code, ever. I would probably pay people to write some for ideas I have though.
Infinite money is no different to more money than you could spend, and I reckon that'd do me. No need to spend money just to be an a***hole.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Yes, but it would be a shame. I actually really like what I do.
Sander Rossel wrote: Would you find a new career?
Unlikely, I am not fit for much else!
Sander Rossel wrote: Would you start your own business?
Why have the responsibility?
Yeah, that's about right for me. I would lke to sail round the med for a year or two for example, get a 10 meter yacht, and just zone out for a bit.

What responsibility? you can just throw money at it until it reaches google's level.

But at some stage you will take it seriously, and it will keep you awake at night with worry.

And who would want to start a new business if one already has infinite money?
Whether I think I can, or think I can't, I am always bloody right!

But what's the fun on that?
|
|
|
|

I'm sure I wouldn't be content with my endless supply of money, and would find other ways to make more.
|
|
|

I'd never write another line of code. There are many other, much more interesting things I could be doing with my life.

Of course I'd stop work, work is a way of getting money to live life, and while I quite enjoy the job I have, it's not something I'd choose to do if I didn't need to be paid. (If any job was that awesome then people wouldn't need to be paid to do it, after all.)
I'd probably set up a game development studio for the business side of life. I've always wanted to get into that but it's prohibitively expensive and difficult as a part time project. I'd buy a nice yacht and cruise around the world visiting places I've wanted to see for a while, as well. And some nice houses in pretty places. I'd probably still do a bit of coding on the side though.
I don't really think I'd know how to spend more than about £50m, and that's including really going over the top on the yacht.

Finally gave in and purchased an Apple product, Im pretty reliant on Keepass though for all my logins and the only keepass compatible apps I can find are ones where you have to create a database to start using it.
I use Dropbox to keep my keepasses in sync and need an app where I can open the keepass on my Dropbox, anybody know of any?
I'm not moving to last pass, don't trust it!
Cheers

How's This[^]?
I just looked at the unofficial/contributed builds on the KeePass download page. That was the first one for iOS devices.
And yes, it supports DropBox (if you have the official DropBox app installed. Same goes for other cloud storage systems.)
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

That is really very good.
I don't know if you follow cricket but India has been beaten rather convincingly by England.
Well done to England!

I think it was bit more than rather convincingly.
But you will get your own back next year, no doubt.

India capitulated. The batting was terrible to say the least. No fight offered at all.

So unlike the India we know and love (the country of my birth).
