What makes a man happy?

So, today I've been thinking about what would make me happy as a man.  In no particular order, let me count the ways:

  1. To be able to ensure that my kid or kids get a good education.  What they make of their lives after getting an education is up to them.
  2. To make my would-be wife happy, content, and satisfied with her life beside me.
  3. To be able to adequately provide financially by being gainfully employed until I could no longer lift a finger. - I gotta start working on this one.
  4. To be able to see the world, or as much of the world as I can afford, with my beloved, before I die.
  5. To be able to finally afford my own house, and live as an adult in my own home.
  6. To be able to stop smoking.  I'm hoping before I'm dead.
  7. To be able to get ready for "the end" gracefully, by getting a life insurance that would cover it and then some left over for my family.
  8. And finally, to be able to go quietly into the night...  Preferably without too much pain =D
Of course, there are some things I didn't actually put in there.  Maybe I'll write about them in the future...  Maybe :)
