I thought about that a couple of times, not that I'm rich but because most people I know believe all their problems could be solved with money, and the fact is that those problems are the least complex, thus, when people get lots of money they have to face deeper issues like "What is that I really want in life? What is happiness about?" Which should be the questions everyone should be asking themselves, instead of "How am I gonna pay rent next month?"
One exercice I often do is ask myself what would I be doing with $10M (that's way more for me to consider myself rich) and if the answer is not exactly what I'm doing right now, then I reconsider my choices and steer the wheel towards that target. This is something I ask people a lot and I'm sure most of them realize they're working just for money, and not even, for fiat!
I'm pretty sure money doesn't bring much happiness, at least I know it wouldn't bring me much to me, so if you feel that's a problem, there are lots of ways to solve it, check out Tallycoin or Geyserfund where you can find great ways to spend some money and have a great impact, you could get involved in whatever you like!
You have an expertise that is needed and you have the luxury to work on whatever you like + you have capital to fund whatever project you're interested.
