I would get guitar lessons from Joe Bonamassa, David Gilmour, Brian Seltzer & Unknown Hinson.

Then I would take blacksmithing lessons from world-class master blacksmiths to create anything from beautiful iron chandeliers, ornate & intricate iron gates. Then on to ridiculously over-sized Viking battle axes to samurai swords worthy of Hattori Hanzo himself.

Then onto wood-sculpturing classes from master wood artisans to make, build & create my own electric guitars. I would also learn to make the finest smoking pipes to enjoy with my rowdy, weird looking ne'er-do-well friends as we ride our Harleys into forbidden lands looking for adventure, love & a mint 1960's Gibson Les Paul goldtop.

My new house will be an exact recreation of the house in the Adams Family movies (graveyard optional). However, I will include 2 secretly concealed huge batman/fireman poles so I can slide from the 3rd & 2nd floors to the bullet proof wine/tobacco cellar...in case of emergencies, of course.
