When I created this list, I was using the perspective of someone whose main priority in life isn't necessarily getting to the top. Rather, I was thinking about people who either strived to live life to the fullest (eg. travel, jumping off of planes, etc.) or had big goals outside of work, such as mastering an instrument or raising a loving family. I know there's a tendency to want to go big in our society, but when I think of go big + deathbed, I picture a really rich person, all alone in a big mansion (I saw the move Magnolia last night. Kind of like that.) So this might be everyman's list, or perhaps the minimal list for not feeling regrets on the ol' deathbed. I do agree that a more gnarly list would work well for someone who's after hardcore business success and can tolerate the quality-of-life price associated with that... Good point, Lela.

(Okay the book, that's aiming pretty high, but still.) How about ten business and money things to do before you're forty or fifty? That might make the personal jet thing actually acheivable!
