You cannot travel in by any motor vehicle--car, train, plane, motor boat, etc. It would be physically impossible for you.

You can walk, ride a bike (without a motor), ride a horse, sail, etc.

Do you accept?

No. No motors. No unnatural means of propulsion.

A Flintstones type car would be ok.

Are you in?

What's so great out there that you're too good for this? Get a bike if you need to go somewhere.

Why not? It's only in the last hundred years that people started regularly using motor vehicles. We were just fine without them before that.

You could totally do this in the country. Get groceries delivered. Have your wife drive to the store. Ride your horse.

Explain. I live in the suburbs and walk or bike to my kids' school, the park, the "downtown" of our little suburb town.

What family responsibilities? Can't your wife drive your kids places? Can't they carpool?

Would be 180 for Tommy to set up a compound in Bali, but he's always talking about how he can't stay in one place for more than a couple weeks at a time. He might be the worst candidate for this.

I have three kids in an exurban area covered in roads where I would 100% die in agony if I tried to bicycle on them with any regularity.

You could invest in some sort of heavy duty pedal car. Or just have your wife drive. $4M is $4M.

I'm surprised no other posters want to do this. Where are they going that you can't roll up in a hansom cab?
