My philosophy is "find interesting work that contributes something to society and makes money without screwing over other people or the environment". Thus, in a small way, leave the world a better place.
Other than that, develop my current venture to a successful exit and watch my kids grow up.
I do have some more out there, what if, pie in the sky type long term ideas...
Sail with my family around the Caribbean for a couple of seasons (too much of Sid Meier's Pirates!?).
Finish editing and publish my social/anthropological documentary on a weird community I used to be part of.
Publish my photographs.
Open a museum to Ecstasy in the place of its original synthesis, Darmstadt.
Open a museum for the Australian ACMS historical computer collection.
Digitize and classify my antique postcard collection (20,000+) and allow others to upload.
Spend a few decades in one place gardening and enjoying the results.
Make more art.
Help others, especially smart and motivated young people, to achieve their goals. Might like to do something accelerator/VC/mentorship related here. Or maybe take a leaf out of Alan Kay's book and focus on education for awhile.
Might be fun to re-read this in 10 years ;)
