How would your life be different if you were a chess master now?

Suppose you got struck by lightning and your one difference is that now you play and understand at the 2300 level. How would that affect your life, besides playing against other masters on chess.com?

I'll try to catch another lightning struck to become a super GM, then I will build a special school to produce GMs. If it doesn't work as expected, I have no worry, I'll wait for another stupid thread

I'd end up wasting even more time with chess...

I'd write more, because by default chess players will take you more seriously.

Just this;

*slap*

I would just like to have that ability for personal satisfaction.

Then I would like to go in coffee shops, bars, and parks, and beat everyone.

I'd probably play some women's tournaments, just so I could pay my medical bills from being hit by lightening in the first place

I would have won the tournament yesterday, instead of just donating the $60 entry fee to the prize fund.

I would not be effected in any way whatsoever.  I would be completely unchanged and the only difference is that I would play chess would higher rated players.

I wouldn't bother with chess.com. I would go to major chess clubs and stablish myself, raise my level to 2800, and play tournaments for the most money that I could. (ie: Bobby Fisher) Become the World Champion

Then I would wake up and find that it was all a dream.  I am the same player level that I am now.

I don't know, but I'm pretty sure I'd win more games.

thats a very good question to raise ones imagination.,but being struck by lightning means death,imagination and ambition teaches us to persevere to be one,sooner to become a reality by dedication and hardwork to learning,whatever we achieve in our lifetimeis what we aspire and imagine it to be.whatever we teach our brain to believe is attainable according to our belief.

I would be even more bitter and twisted about my lack of success, as a chess player.

I'd date the Polgars.

this calls also for a celebration when not struck by lightning to become one.i would invite all chessplayers to my another wedding with chess. happy now that i could beat those who have beaten me in  my past failure.
