    I've grouped wife and children together as "family".

    I normally work away from home, but that then gives me enough freedom to spend time at home on holiday with the children.

    Lifestyle is meaningless to me - I only need to work for 4 months a year to keep my lifestyle the same - so I work that time and then have a long stint with the family.

    You missed out the one most important thing in life: Good health.

    Other optional extras include being young and male. It's a young man's world.

    I suspect most billionaires would trade all their wealth for being young and healthy.

    I left wife number two and got a flat on my own upon reflection (sometimes being on your own is the only way to sort it out in your head) realised I was letting the kids dictate what I did or didn't do albeit set up by their mother.

    Basically sat the kids down (metaphoricaly) and told them that I loved them would always be there for them BUT I decide whom I love and if they don't like it tough, their decision not mine.

    Got back with wife number two (love of my life without any doubt) and the kids were fine about it.

    Must add the kids at this time were 16 and 14 so old enough to understand.

    It is not possible for me to cast my vote in this poll as it requires multiple options to be selected. I feel marginalised

    or beer


    so for that reason I'm out.






    Actually for me it's probably a combination from the poll and I can't really pick one

    I want to stay a man, so I'm sticking with all three.
