I only have one nit to pick:

Absolutely correct. Except the castle... Who would want to clean or heat that monstrosity ๐Ÿ˜

In this hypothetical scenario I have all the money I would ever need. So I would just hire a cleaning crew and install a solar farm large enough to power the entire castle, including electric heaters in every room (or a water-based radiators with electric tankless water heaters). ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Meh. Makes still for incredibly much wasted space :)

[โ€“] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The space won't be wasted because I'll have enough pets to fill every room ๐Ÿ˜Ž

But wouldn't a nice bungalow on a large property not be better suited? Outdoors for most, with retreat options in their own, fitted habitat? Sounds like a good idea anyway ๐Ÿ˜

Nah, I need a room for my hamsters, a room for my gerbils, a room for my rabbits, a room for my fish, a room for my birds, etc....

Of course cats and dogs would have the run of the whole house (except for other pet rooms), but there'd be a special room just for the cats and a special room just for the dogs.

Outside I'd still have sheep and goats and llamas and alpacas and donkeys and chickens and ducks and geese, etc.... And probably some staff because taking care of all those would be a LOT of work.

Oh and a botanical garden, of course. With an apiary!

HM okay. That sounds like a good general plan. Hope you'd also pay employees way above standards ๐Ÿ˜

Oh yeah, of course. After all, I would have all the money I would ever need, so why would I not pay my people the best salaries? Like double the median income for that particular kind of job or more

Just double? you rich monster!

Maybe triple, it depends.
