a lot of people say if they become rich they will tour the whole world. same thing for me, if i have the money to finance touring the whole world!! it would be fun and i will have the once in a lifetime opportunity to see different places,race and culture!! but on the other hand i find it impractical nowadays because its hard to earn money. if you will just spend in luxury i think there are a lot of beneficial things your money should be placed. but well in the end of the day its still your money, you will be the one who will decide where to spend it!! just spend it wisely!!=)

If i have lots of money, of course i will tour the whole wide world. I want to enjoy life with my family. I want to see and experience different kinds of cultures. But of course, i wont be selfish, i will share to others all the blessings that I'd received.

if i have lots of money, i would certainly travel the world and appreciate its beauty. But before doing that i would first travel the islands of my own country, on order for me to appreciate more the various culture and traditions we have in the world. In this way, i would appreciate and probably would be able to see the good points of each country i will be able to visit.

If I have more than enough money to tour the whole world, why not? I always love to travel and be in places that I have never been to before and experience and learn new things. However, if I don't have that much money but got enough to travel, I would just choose to go to certain places I dreamed of visiting,a dn save the rest of the money to secure my future and my family's future.

Hi,
If I really have lot of money, I would travel to certain countries,but
not the whole world...too big and certain part of countries is not recommended
for travelling.
I want to travel to europe,usa,japan,korea,china,australia,new zealand and hongkong/macau.
Those are few countries in my list.
So far, I only been to Australia and Hongkong / macau.
But i do hope to visit those countries again in future.
Apart from travelling, I may use some money for investment in property.

If I am filthy rich, for sure I would! But it wouldn't be every place in the world. I'd choose to go to the key destinations only. And I wouldn't spend all my money on traveling! I'd put most of it in the bank or invest or whatever but I'd have some saved up for traveling.

Yes, I would. Traveling around the world is my dream. I guess that will be full of funny and interesting things.
How I wish I can have a lot of money! But money cannot get to you automaticly. :) You need to earn by yourself and earn it hard. And I believe hard working gets paid. Wish the day come soon.

Traveling is my greatest passion. I will definitely spend money on traveling, especially when I am already in my 50s. When I am retired and I have a lot of idle cash lying around, I will travel once or twice a month. I have a lot of places I want to visit before I am unable to do so. Of course, I will not spend all of my money on traveling. I will set aside 40-50% of my total money for daily stuff and emergencies.

Hi! If one day i wake up on of the riches person in the whole world i probably visit the places i've been dreaming on but not to tour the entire places in this earth because not all places are safe and inviting, I'll just pick the places that catches my attention. And perhaps after the long tour I'll invest the money to secure mu future.

I guess that most people wish to travel around the world if they have enough money. But just as you said, nowadays it's not easy to earn money, which means you need quite a long time to collect your travel funds. Another problem is that you'll find that you have no spare time even if you collect enough funds. And don't forget that traveling around world is not an easy task. Before you start your journey, you need to do a lot of preparation work.

Hi! If I have lots of money I would! Lol. I agree with you, right now it's hard to spend our cash because it's hard to earn money. But, no matter how tight the budget is I always see to it that I can save so I can tour even ones a year. It doesn't have to be far, I hardly tour around my country. At the end of the day, it's all worth it!

as for me if i got a lot of money that almost everything i had into my hand......i will really tour the whole world to see another place and for relaxation purposes.....to have fun for my self....if ever. because no one on want a lonely and bored life, all of us want to find pleasure, to satisfy our self, we want happiness rather than problem.........but if i have a chance to have it i will spend it for special purposes.

I think that if i had a lot of money i would want to travel around the world. It would be awesome to see the kind of food that people eat and their cultures. I would also want a big house for me at home along with some luxuries. I would most likely be driving a Lamborghini.

When I was 20 years old I managed to travel around the world. I was a budget minded backpacker. My route was London to Los Angeles to Hawaii to Fiji to Sydney to Adelaide overland to Cairns to Darwin and then back to London. I was able to see Indonesia and Malaysia on that trip as well. I let out my cottage and got a working holiday visa to be able to afford my trip.
I let my cottage out again when I was 29 years old. I had just completed teaching contract then I flew off to New Zealand. On my way I visited French Polynesia and the Cook Islands. Then on my way home I visited Samoa. I was able to get a monthly income but I spent more money than that. I came home very poor after that trip and had to work in a shop before I began my next teaching contract.
Now I have a disabled toddler and baby daughter I still go off traveling. This summer we flew off to Vancouver and last year when I was pregnant I took my son to Cape Town and the Garden Route. If I had loads of money I would be able to visit lots more places. I will go off traveling when ever I can do so. I wonder where my next trip will be.

Yes I would. In fact, I would love to take a cruise around the world if I was rich and could afford it. But, don't think that will ever happen. But, it is nice to be able to dream.

Traveling would be a consideration if money was no object. i think i could find some more useful ways to spend my money. there are a lot of generous ways that I could be giving back to the world instead of just taking from it.
