Ask HN: I'm priveledged, what should I do for a year?

My goal has always been to have loads of free time so I can do something really awesome, like becoming an artist or help solve environmental problems.

I’ve told myself that as a first step, I should use my free time to create some great mobile apps, in order to free up even more free time. Then I can start pursuing my ultimate goal.

I have now created five apps and regardless of how well they will do in the future, I’ve come to realise that this “extra step” seems a little too much like an excuse. I should get started. I have money for one year.

I guess my approach is “if you can think it it can be done”, so I’m not afraid of seemingly impossible projects.

I’m looking for the right idea. What would you do if you could do anything you wanted for a year? What should I do?

What I’ve done so far - technical creative director and developer for 15 years - won 100+ awards including Webby AD&D etc - written and recorded music and had a radio hit - drew and built a house - designed and built furniture - professional photographer - created and launched five mobile apps - have one kid and one on the way (I'm 33 and Swedish)

What interests me the most - making sure animals don’t get extinct - preserving rain forrest - reduce meat eating - fighting racism and populist political ideas - digital art projects, for instance “I want you to want me”, Jonathan Harris - spatial interactive art

Requirements on the project - I need it to be an idea that gets a lot of attention, so I don’t have to work on marketing once the project is done. This is so tiresome. You can make great music, but no one will listen to it if you don’t work on marketing, even more than you work on making music. That’s the reason I don’t do music (which I love the most I think) full time. - I need to be able to make it more or less by myself in one year or less. - I’ve had employees before, and it’s not something I enjoy, or am good at, that’s why I haven’t tried start ups.
