Other: I can narrow it down to 2 views so I guess one can be the winter home and one can be the summer home. View number one...The house will be sitting a on a bluff overlooking the ocean. The coastline is very rugged. Huge waves are breaking on the shore. View number two...The house is in the mountains next to a fast moving river, Rising all around are massive mountain peaks. Lots of pine trees

Will only need a driver other than myself to be sitting at the wheel while the highway patrol is writing speeding tickets.

Nothing too fancy, maybe a Nissan Maxima.
Even if I were rich I would live modestly. A top of the line stereo in the car would be nice.
