If I could spend money like water for a day, the first thing I'd do would be to hire a personal bodyguard and a driver for the day. Then I’d head to the bank to buy as many gold and silver bars as possible, and rent a safety deposit box to store them securely.
Next, I’d rent a large storage unit. It would serve as a place to store all the things I buy throughout the day — especially the ones I plan to resell secondhand tomorrow. Yes, I’d treat this once-in-a-lifetime chance as a mission to acquire assets that can easily be turned back into cash. (I wish I could buy land or property, but those aren’t exactly same-day purchases.)
My first stop would be the Apple Store. Apple products are known to hold their resale value well, so I’d grab as many top-tier MacBooks, iPads, iPhones, and AirPods as possible. I wouldn’t even unbox them—straight to storage they'd go.
Then, I’d visit a few luxury brand stores with low depreciation rates and fill my cart with bags and accessories. Those would also head straight to the storage unit.
By this point, the morning would probably be gone. For lunch, I’d invite my husband, family, and friends to the Shilla Hotel buffet. Over the meal, we’d talk about what each person wants most, and in the afternoon, we’d go shopping from their wish lists together.
If the morning was for “liquid assets,” the afternoon would be for “gifts of love.” I’d buy things for myself too, of course, but nothing compares to seeing the people I love light up with happiness.
In the evening, I’d wrap up the day with a cozy omakase dinner with my husband, then stop by a department store so we could each pick out one special outfit to remember the day by—maybe even take a photo in our new clothes to mark the memory. It’s a fantasy, but if it ever came true, it would be a day we’d talk about for the rest of our lives.
On the way home, I’d place one last order on Coupang for daily necessities and groceries. If I can spend money like water, I might as well stock up smartly, too.
Reading this back, it sounds surprisingly modest. But who knows—maybe someday such a day will come. And if it does, I’d better have an even smarter plan ready. 🤔🤭
