It’s fun to think about what you’d do if you won the lottery but there’s a lot of stuff out there that could be a waste of money. People are talking about the things they wouldn’t buy even if they were rich. This got me thinking and if I were rich I wouldn’t buy a boat. Sure they’re fun but they’re also just a waste of money. Here’s what the people of Reddit are saying.
If you were filthy rich, what would you still refuse to buy?
