I don't think I'd ever leave the makerspace.

I would become an author and write plenty of fiction, poems, short stories. I might also get into game development. And if time permits, I would even pick up on astronomy.
Still work but at a reduced rate and else I would actually think about volunteering or improving my living conditions like a garden or tech at gome :)
Exactly what I am already doing. imagineering my top rated VR Theme Park and explore SE Asia and other parts of the world. Love both.
Volunteer, hands down. Local community stuff, create something akin to a co-op public broadcasting channel, spend time with my animals, bake and donate goods.
You know those people who restore old machinery and equipment? Locomotives, historic warships, industrial sites and so on? I'd absolutely be dedicating my day to that. There's something so satisfying about seeing that old stuff work, but they're always chronically understaffed and struggling to keep up with everything.
Oh, and write a novel.
Exercise to get healthy and work on my garden, to start. Then I'd handle any necessary projects for my home. Then I'd find causes to support by volunteering.
Metal, leather and wood working. Bee keeping and running a little shop
Haha I like to be silly at work sometimes after I’ve already paid the big monthly expenses. I say, “I’m here to do two things help kids and pay bills, and I’m all outta bills.” I would continue to work in my field on a part time basis. Then I would make time for a few doctor appointments and start going to therapy again. I’d walk my dog at different parks more often. Hopefully id make more time with my friends and family assuming they have the same deal. I would want to be more involved with my community too.
Go into teaching. I love to assist others in their learning voyage, I love science, research, classes. However, financial realities mean that I would be starving if I pursued that path. So I find fulfillment in adjacent activities in my current line of work. I would also have an electronics workshop, repairing computers and other electronics for fun.
A podcast about the pre-columbian Americas which in all honesty would be a Hardcore History knockoff.
Without joking, most likely I would watch more Lemmy.
Would study and do arts and use our findings and research to help improve the world in some kind of way, even if its a little.
I'm into bird watching, so I'd want to travel to see new ones and what have you.
I would want to craft more.
I would read more.
I would take language lessons
I would work on that book idea
I would take classes on anything that interested me.
I would want to have a small farm, I just think it's neat.
I would walk my dog, lift weights, study foreign languages, help my community
I'd dive fully into circuitboard electronics
I'd design and build useful things
I would build affordable housing.
Produce documentaries all the fucking time
Join a 3rd band, I guess.
Also my research but with less bs
I'd make things like drones or robots or something.
Write, travel
I'd be one of those old school naturalists and just, like, go live in a swamp for three years with one pair of clothes, a cot, a journal, and a pencil.
Make video games or digital interactive art pieces for VR
I'd spend more time playing guitar and chess and spend more time with my son.
Build things, well, until I get tired of it. The ADHD is strong and I hate fine finish work.
Study more JiuJitsu and physiotherapy for poor people.
write music and go fishing
Travel, meet with friends, play video games, watch some movies.
Politics. Gotta ensure that utopia survives and expands
A) mental health would absolutely improve so I'd have more energy for
B) producing more shows and putting on more events. Personally I don't want to retire because I want to create a career where if I did retire I'd just do what I was doing anyway. I'm kinda doing that now but I have more BS and stress to deal with.
I'd make a lot of paintings, learn how to animate, compose a gigaton of music, make a graphic novel, collect analog synths and various folk instruments, gaze at the stars, go camping a lot, make a garden of native plants, design my house to be optimal and asestically pleasing, read a lot of books, spend time with friends, host a server or two. And travel. Lots of travel but I'd do travel where I stay in one place for months as opposed to multiple in a couple of weeks so that I could really absorb the culture.
Make my pottery, dive deeper into woodworking, and learn permaculture farming.
