My answer would be a resounding no. Some things just cannot be bought. Everyone knows what things they would never do regardless of the money involved. If I could not do anything productive ever again, I'd be depressed. Also, I think there is such thing as too much money. In terms of happiness, money provides diminishing returns. I believe that having enough to not worry about having to generate income is a good goal for most people. Beyond that, it can create a feeling of alienation with regards to the rest of the population, as you would be too far to the right on the wealth distribution curve and would have few peers. What do you get in return? Fame (if you want it) and access to extravagant toys. The real problems in life remain the same whether you have 10M or 1B: you will get old, you may have family or health problems, accidents happen, etc. Alienation + productivity ban = sad life. No thanks.
